The adventure continues with an exploration of a lava cave, where you'll don helmets and use torches to navigate the underground formations.The day concludes at a local winery, where you'll sample one sparkling wine and three regional varieties. These are paired with a selection of cold cuts, cheeses, pâté, and locally produced olive oil, offering a taste of Sicilian culinary traditions against the backdrop of Mount Etna's slopes.
