Very nice excursion. We were lucky enough to see the volcanic eruption. It is not certain that you will get to see it. The walk up Stromboli was a little tiring but we got to rest a little from time to time. The way up was sandy, so you need shoes with good grip. The descent in the dark was not as dangerous as I thought.

The overall experience is awesome! The climb was a little slow for our taste, the group was much too large (about thirty people) and we had a guide who spoke English and not French. Apart from that, it allows you to be able to climb to 400m, which was forbidden by yourself when we were there at the end of October 2022, and we were able to see several eruptions in the night, which is really magnificent.

Ascent uncomplicated, only the heat makes it a bit exhausting. The observation point is reached at about 450 meters above sea level. Experienced a fantastic sunset and several explosions from the middle crater in the dark. The clear explanations from our guide Giuseppe, a competent geologist, were a great asset.
