Some things to note

Some things to note icon
  • We don’t want you to miss out on any aspect of your small group tour. To ensure that you don’t, we recommend you arrive at your starting destination by 1.00pm in order to take part in your welcome dinner.
  • On the excursion to Mount Etna the coach will be stationed at Refugio Sapienza – the starting point for the ascent to the top of Mount Etna. You can take the optional cable car (at an additional cost) up to the crater at an altitude of 2,900m. Alternatively, you can walk with your Tour Leader through the volcanic landscape and admire the volcano from lower heights. Due to volcanic activity and unpredictable weather conditions, it often becomes necessary to cancel the excursions on offer; therefore we suggest booking these on arrival in Mount Etna.
  • The weather on Mount Etna is very intermittent and even in summer it can get very cold. Visitors that want to climb to the higher craters should take into consideration bringing warm clothes, even if at the bottom of the mountain temperatures may be well over 30°C.
  • A number of our travel dates connect with our Jewels of Dalmatia and Croatia & Slovenia tours, if you'd like to add on the Adriatic coast, please speak to your Travel Specialist for further details.
