Catania
Ranked by traveller popularity
The 6 most popular etna cable car (funivia) in Catania. Here's what they actually deliver, who runs them, and what they cost.
Ride the Funivia dell’Etna to 2,500 m for crater views and Ionian Coast panoramas, with reserved seats and an all-day ticket window.
“Nie podobała się bo się nie odbyła. Kolejka nie jeździ od kilku dni a wy sprzedajecie bilety na atrakcję. Informujecie że atrakcja może się nie odbyć w momencie kiedy już nie można zwrócić biletów.”
Small-group Mt. Etna hike from Catania with cable car, lava cave visit, picnic lunch, and views near 3,000m.
“Although our tour was restricted to the lower levels due to high winds, our guides extensive knowledge in both geology and biology (he was a young biologist), plus the excitement of climbing down into a lava tube (ladder also available for us 2 oldies!) Most impressed with the strong rapour the guide grew and maintained…”
Skip Etna queues with a mobile QR ticket, ride the cable car toward 2,500m, then walk Etna Park paths—bring layers and check-in early.
“Ticket / QR code would not appear or work after purchase at hotel or ticket counter. Had to rebook on the spot for the experience. Viator would not issue any type of refund. Experience on site was wonderful. Just would recommend booking directly through Funivia dell'Etna.”
Cable car, jeep, guided walks on Mt. Etna’s summit craters, a lava cave, and Oro d’Etna tastings from Catania.
“Wonderful day—guide was very knowledgeable and helpful. I would highly recommend. However, a bit concerning Mt Etna erupted 2 days after we were there! 😳”
Cable car to Etna’s 2,920 m views, optional off-road to the crater rim, and free time in Taormina from Catania.
“Great!!! Very nice driver Had all the free time we wanted No rush Fluid time schedule No guide with you on your tour. Just you and the area.. This was perfect for us.. We just did what we wanted..”
Walk Etna summit craters by cable car and guided trek through lava tunnels and the Valle del Bove. High-altitude, 5.5 hours.
“Pas de visite en français avec Lucas cosma le jour réservé et pas de possibilité de monter aux cratères sommitaux en raison de l’activité de l’Etna. On a été réorienté sur leur partenaire Aitne (ils travaillent tous ensemble et se connaissent bien) : merci pour l’adaptation de prise en charge pour répondre à notre demande…”
