Full Day Private Tour - North Etna and Cyclops Riviera from Syracuse 8 hours

Acicastello, Sicily You will depart from your hotel at approximately 9.00am. This morning you will travel on the nord-east face of Etna Volcano called 'Piano Provenzana'. Over the course of the trip, the differences in the terrain may well surprise you, as we pass from a road which is bordered by chestnuts and pine forests to lunar landscape of the lava fields - formed by the 2001-2002 last eruptions. Etna offers an enormous range of outings which can be selected according to interest one takes in the various aspects of the mountain. There is an option from here to travel, by special all terrain vehicle, to the top of Volcano as far as 2900 m. above sea level (Additional cost).

Your tour continue towards Linguaglossa - a few miles away, where there will be a stop at a local winery which produces an excellent Etna DOC wine. Here you can have brunch and enjoy the local food and also taste some wines. After this break, continue Sant'Alfio. Across the square is a terrace with a splendid view over the Ionian coast. Here, you can taste some typical Sicilian cookies made by flour, honey and almond or pistachio or hazelnut.

Then we visit the pluri-millenary tree under whose breadth of foliage, as legend has it, one hundred horsemen took shelter from a storm. From here the panoramic downhill road will lead you to the Ionian Sea driving along the fertile slopes covered at first by vineyards in the open countryside and then the lemon grow as far as to admire the Cyclops Riviera and its small fishermen villages. Here in the arm of the Ionian Sea in front of Acicastello and Acitrezza villages - about 500 thousand years ago the primitive underwater lava, gave rise to Mount Etna. Acicastello takes its name by the Norman Fortress built of black lava stone which is nestled atop a rocky spur on the sea. The castle houses the small City Museum, collecting archaeological relics and mineral specimens.
