Mount Etna and Alcantara Gorges Private Shore Tour

Discover two of Sicily’s most impressive natural attractions on a private shore tour from Catania with a licensed English-speaking guide. Travel to Rifugio Sapienza, set about 2,000 metres above sea level on Mount Etna, and explore extinct craters, dramatic lava fields and landscapes shaped by recent eruptions. Continue to the Alcantara Gorges, a spectacular river canyon formed when ancient lava flows cooled beside the water, creating high basalt walls and unusual rock formations. Enjoy time to admire the scenery and walk in the natural surroundings. The itinerary can include direct pickup and return at Catania Cruise Port, depending on the ship’s schedule and port access conditions.
