The trip "Sicily rock and fire" was a nice experience, the only thing I was very unhappy about was the hostel which was old and dirty; we paid way too much for what we got (34 euros a night); the rooms were dark and cold, nothing like shown in the pictures; the breakfast was very poor and extremely disappointing with no yogurts or bread available; considering the condition of the hostel and what we got it shoud not be more than 12 euros a night; As for the climbing I enjoyed all the crags and trying different kinds of rock.
One of the best climbing trips ever and this is solely credited to our guide, Mirto who is not only a very experienced mountain guide and rock climber, but he also allowed a lot of flexibility in the tour schedule and changed it based on how tired or strong we were feeling that day. This was especially true on the day we hiked up Mount Etna as he changed the date of our hike based on the weather report and we had the best time and views at the top. And all the crags were also so diverse and beautiful. Loved it!
It was a great experience, Mirto took us to places we would never been able to find without a local guide. Also in the evening Mirto took us to nice places and we really enjoyed the Italian apperativos Not everything was arranged perfectly, for example we had to pay extra for the bouldering hal when it was raining and some climbing things could have explained better (for me it was the first time and at the last day i discovered there were actual climbing terms), but I guess that was also part of the local experience :). I had a great experience!
Mirto was an excellent guide, explaining about Sicilian culture geology and geography of the area, and pointing out the best climbs to do at each crag. He was friendly and pushed us to try our hardest on every climb. A great taste of Sicilian culture with aperitifs after every day, and the experience of driving on Sicilian roads!
Trip organized very well: nice and comfortable hostel, great guide (super Mirto!) And beautiful places. Totally recommended experience 😃
