点评:I had the most amazing experience on this helicopter tour over Mt Etna.
I phoned and spoke with Gabriele the day before to make a booking for the next morning. On arrival the next morning, Gabrielle greeted us and offered us coffee and sparkling water as we waited for the other passengers to arrive. We chatted to Stefano and Cristian the pilots about the helicopter and how the weather was so perfect for the trip. I had the fortune of getting to sit in the front, and was blown away by the beauty of Sicily from the sky. Stefano piloted the helicopter, and pointed out all the visible features of the landscape such as Stromboli, Taormina, vineyards, and the castle. Finally we approached Mt Etna and it was spectacular. We followed an old lava trail towards the summit, passing the ski slopes and different craters. The summit was snow covered and against the blue sky this made it look even more majestic. Looking down into the smoking craters of a volcano is a memory I will remember for the rest of my life.
On the journey back we flew over the newest craters to have emerged earlier in 2026. These craters were smoking also, then down the far side of Etna and back towards Taormina over the water with stunning views.
I would highly recommend this tour company and would like to thank Gabriele, Stefano, and Cristian for such a wonderful experience from start to finish.
翻译:这次埃特纳火山直升机之旅真是太棒了!
我提前一天打电话给Gabriele预订了第二天早上的行程。第二天早上到达后,Gabriele热情地迎接了我们,并为我们准备了咖啡和气泡水,让我们在等待其他乘客到来的时候享用。我们和飞行员Stefano和Cristian聊了聊直升机,还提到天气非常适合这次飞行。我有幸坐在前排,从空中俯瞰西西里岛的美景让我叹为观止。Stefano驾驶着直升机,一路为我们讲解沿途的风景,比如斯特龙博利火山、陶尔米纳、葡萄园和城堡。最后,我们接近了埃特纳火山,景色真是壮观极了。我们沿着一条古老的熔岩小径向山顶进发,途中经过了滑雪场和不同的火山口。山顶白雪皑皑,在蓝天的映衬下,显得更加雄伟壮丽。俯瞰火山冒着烟的火山口,这将成为我终生难忘的记忆。
返程途中,我们飞越了2026年初新出现的火山口。这些火山口也冒着烟。之后,我们沿着埃特纳火山的另一侧向下飞行,飞越水面返回陶尔米纳,沿途风景美不胜收。
我强烈推荐这家旅行社,并衷心感谢Gabriele、Stefano和Cristian,他们为我提供了从始至终如此美妙的体验。
