We had a fantastic experience with Ashara Volcanological Guides during our entire hiking tour. Our guide Massimo was one of the best guides that I’ve ever had.

We had an extremely good hiking experience, the guide gave us a lot of information and answered all our questions in a very detailed way. The visit to the central crater was an experience that I really suggest to do. The landscape is truly beautiful.
