Aerial Tours in Catania

Booked this for my partner’s birthday and it was a solid pick. The 4x4 bus ride up was a wild start—my partner loved it, I was a little nervous (heights aren’t my fav). Once we started hiking, though, it was all good vibes. Learned a lot about lava flows and geology. Would recommend, just wish the weather was a bit clearer.

Insanely windy at the top! Our hats almost flew away lol. The guide lent us extra jackets, which was a life saver. Hike itself was moderate, not as hard as I thought. The views of the crater and the steam vents are something I’ll never forget. There were a LOT of people, tho, so sometimes it felt like a parade.

Honestly? Bucket list stuff. Never thought I’d see a volcano from a helicopter. Felt totally safe the whole time. Thanks to the crew for making it easy for us.

Did this as part of a girls’ trip and had a blast. The pilot was a riot, and we giggled the whole way. Only negative: the headsets made my hair all frizzy. Pro tip: tie your hair back!
