Our quad experiences are off-road itineraries that will allow you to visit some of the most fascinated and best preserved natural sites on the eastern side of our beloved island. Etna Experience: immersed in the greenery of holm oaks, broom and chestnut trees, you will taste Etna from its lower altitudes (1000 a.s.l.), through ancient “trazzere” and wooded areas. Passing through extinct volcanic cones, you will also visit the inside of a lava rock extraction quarry, now abandoned. Alcantara Experience: the “Alcantara River Park”, famous for its renowned gorges and the natural canyon formed over the years, is an oasis where time seems to have stopped. Jump aboard one of our quads and walk a path surrounded by nature, from the dry river to the narrow streets of the historic center up to the secondary streams of the river. At the end of our tours you will feel like expert drivers and will take with you the memory of an unforgettable experience.
You will be the protagonists of an ascent of the waterfalls inside the canyon of the Alcantara Gorges (a world-renowned tourist site) of approximately 400 meters between rocks and dives, with the help of our reliable guides. The river trekking ascent will be followed by the waterfalls on the descent, in the body rafting route. An experience suitable for those with an adventurous spirit, a desire for adrenaline and who want to test their skills. The Body Rafting excursion to the Alcantara Gorge takes place in a group and the river guides can thus follow all the participants and carry out a safe adventure.
The excursion on Etna by off-road vehicle is an exciting journey through lunar landscapes, ancient woods and lava flows that tell the story of the ancestral force of the highest and most active volcano in Europe, declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. Starting from the north side, we will reach the historic flow of 1923 that reached the town of Linguaglossa, crossing a suggestive off-road route between expanses of black lava, flowering brooms and the remains of ancient rural settlements, such as an old palmento once used for winemaking. We will then continue through chestnut groves and oaks until we reach the lava front of the 2002 eruption, one of the most violent of the last hundred years, which left impressive marks on the landscape. The excursion continues along the panoramic Mareneve road to Piano Provenzana, at 1,800 meters above sea level, where after a short stop for a coffee we will visit the remains of the Le Betulle hotel, a symbol of the destructive force of nature. An intense experience, between wild nature and evidence of the power of the volcano, perfect for those who want to experience Etna up close, in an authentic and adventurous way.
The journey starts from the Bay of Giardini Naxos, where you can admire the crystal clear waters and the breathtaking view of Mount Etna in the background. We will then sail towards the suggestive Isola Bella, a pearl of the Ionian Sea, to discover its wonderful caves and inlets. Afterwards, we will explore the picturesque Bay of Mazzarò, famous for its sea caves and the spectacular colors of the water. Finally, you will have the opportunity to immerse yourself in a unique snorkeling experience, exploring the seabed rich in marine life and breathtaking colors. We will provide you with all the necessary equipment to make you live a safe and fascinating experience!
