It was overcast when we started up to Mt Etna and arrived in time for a few photos at some of the craters but couldn't go further because of fog and rain moving in. Guide was great (a geology student so we talked a lot about the different lava flows.) When we needed an extra step for the van, the guide borrowed a large rock from the mountain that gave helped one of our travelers who had bad knees to climb into van. Lunch was authentic. And we loved seeing the church, square and Bar Vinito where Godfather was filmed.
