We had a beautiful trekking tour out if Taormina with a great guide (Lucia), who is passionate about the Etna, very knowlegeable of the volcanic activity, the nature, plants and environment and a very pleasant person and safe driver. She adapted easily to our wishes and physical capability and guided us to beautiful places to watch the Etna, which was still covered with some snow and a lava cave. Good preparation with sticks and helmets available. Highly recommended.
