Hiya, I am also off to Sicliy and want to do a trip to Etna from Palermo. I've emailed CST a couple of times but with no reply - any ideas or alternatives? Did you end up making this trip and was it worth the long day? Any help really appreciated Thanks! | ||||||

CST tours always look good on their website (although prices don’t include entrance fees), but they don’t respond to emails and they don’t answer phones. Palermo is not the best base for tours to Etna. Here’s a listing for companies running excursions around Palermo from Palermo’s Tourist Information: www.aapit.pa.it/datad/natura/report.asp… In addition, you could customize excursions. Here are two very reliable companies with licensed guides. Both companies offer Etna excursions.

I don't know whether they're any good, but Isango - owned by Ryanair - offers several trips from Palermo. look for "Trips and Tours" on www.ryanair.com Jenny | ||||||
