Mount Etna Sunset Tour
Mount Etna Sunset Half-Day Jeep Tour
Get ready for an unforgettable off-road adventure! Discover the magic of Mount Etna, the highest active volcano in Europe, on our thrilling Etna Sunset Jeep Tour. We’ll pick you up directly from your accommodation in one of our 4×4 off-road vehicles, including the iconic Land Rover 110, and take you on a breathtaking journey to experience the volcano in all its glory during sunset.
Mount Etna 4×4 Adventure
As we ascend the slopes of Mount Etna, you’ll pass through idyllic Sicilian villages and some of the region’s most famous wine-growing areas. The higher we go, the more spectacular the views become, and you’ll learn about the local culture, the volcano’s history, and its ongoing volcanic activity. The stark contrast of the black lava fields against the vibrant vegetation is even more enchanting as the sun begins to set, creating a stunning play of colors unique to Mount Etna’s landscape.
Experience the beauty of centuries-old forests, recent lava flows, and some of the most stunning viewpoints on the mountain. During a 45-minute hike around the craters, you’ll take in the awe-inspiring sights of new and old lava formations in a truly unique setting.

Sunset at the North Crater
Your journey will be guided by a professional English-speaking guide, who will share fascinating stories and insights about the myths, legends, and the geological marvels of Mount Etna. The tour includes an exciting off-road track through pine forests, where you’ll encounter the remarkable flora and fauna thriving on the volcanic terrain.
You’ll also get to explore one of Mount Etna’s lava caves, equipped with helmets and flashlights, just like a speleologist. These natural caves, formed by ancient lava flows, are rich in history and were once used by locals for storing ice.
Finally, you’ll witness the breathtaking sunset over the volcanic landscape—a magical moment where the sky transforms into vibrant shades of orange and red, providing a once-in-a-lifetime view. As the day comes to a close, we’ll drive past the hardened lava flows, including the remnants of the ski lift destroyed by the last major eruption, before returning you safely to your accommodation.
This Mount Etna Sunset Tour is the perfect way to experience the raw power of nature, the unique volcanic landscape, and the unforgettable beauty of Sicily’s iconic volcano.

Had a great afternoon, talk tour and the pleasure of a grumpy Etna too, (lots of growling) the guides and drivers were friendly and welcoming throughout.
Very informative and would definitely recommend the sunset trip & tasting.
Can't say much more as dont want to spoil the surprises, but so much more better experience having a guide than driving yourself.
