    Asked on July 22nd, 2025

    since Mount Etna has erupted, do you still do the visit to Etna on this date?

    Tour Details
    • Soleto TravelOperatorWritten July 2025

      We do regularly tours to Mt Etna, from the different sides of the mountain. We suspended the tours during the eruption but once the authority guaranteed the safety of visitors we started again. It s completely safe

    • T

      Taylor

      TravelerWritten July 2025

      what are the alternatives you offer to the Mt Etna visit when its suspended?

    • Soleto TravelOperatorWritten July 2025

      The alternatives we usually in case are the godfather tour (Savona and Forza D Agro villages tour) along with the already planned tour to Taormina. second option is the north side of the Volcan not affected by eruption. But in any case we arrange the alternatives and confirm the tour always to guarantee the maximum safe of the customers.

    • Soleto TravelOperatorWritten August 2025

      Regarding the payment in installments for us there are no problems at all, but we are not in charge for payment collections, for that I advise to contact the Tour Radar team - or one of the phone number.

    Olga

    Asked on May 3rd, 2024

    Does Soleto Travel offer transportation to and from the airport? I see that transfers from the airport are included, but there's no mention of transportation back to the airport on the last day of the tour. Additionally, I noticed an option for private transfer for an extra cost. Am I correct in assuming that the included transfer is with a group of people, and the private option is specifically for the customer?

    Flights / Transfers
    • Soleto TravelOperatorWritten May 2024

      Yes, that's correct the Airport transfer on arrival is included already in the tour cost (in private way), while the departures transfer is available at an extra cost, it's euro 60,00 for 1 or 2 pax.
