Taormina and Castelmola tour with Greek Theater will let you experience the history of one of the Sicilian Greek colonies and its astonishing ancient Theatre, used as a film set for many movies and TV series, such as the recent White Lotus Sicily show.

The tour starts with a visit to Castelmola Sicily a picturesque village situated just above Taormina, the perfect place to enjoy a beautiful setting and a wonderful outlook over the magnificent bay of Giardini Naxos and Mount Etna rising in the distance.
Then our journey continues with a Taormina walking tour, seeing the Aragonese-style Porta Catania and Corso Umberto, once part of the ancient Roman street Via Valeria.
Enjoy a Taormina walking tour visiting the monuments of the town, as well as the most exclusive shops, restaurants, and hotels, such as the famous San Domenico Palace and the newest White Lotus Sicily location and the theatre of Taormina, the second-largest in Sicily, built by Greeks and Romans in the 3rd century BC.

Great tour of Castelmola and Taormina (with greek theater). We loved the views, the feel of the cities and the tour guide (Sofia) was amazing. She was forthcoming, lively, interesting and proud of her work. The tour provider, Discover Messina Sicily, was truly outstanding. They communicated with us in the days preceding the tour and made sure everything was set and that we were looking forward to the tour. Less than 24 hours before the tour, our ship's port changed from Messina to Catania and they completely turned around and made all changes to the tour organization so it would seemlessly start from Catania. Kudos to them - they adapted perfectly and communicated well, making sure the clients did not have any stress relating to the excursion. Very impressed!

Our tour guide Sabrina was absolutely wonderful and very informative. She never stopped in providing us with the history of the areas in the bus and once we arrived at destination was very informative also.

Claudio was fantastic! Great way to see a lot in one day. Beware there is a decent amount of walking so if you aren’t able to walk well this is not the tour for you.

Sabrina was very accommodating and super knowledgeable! She was full of history and facts, more than we can remember, and Castelmola and Taormina were beautiful. Giancarlo was a very safe driver as well! I would recommend this tour if you have limited time in Sicily.

An amazing tour company and a tour guide makes for an unforgettable tour. We received audio equipment that was clean and worked well. Our guide Sarah was extremely knowledgeable, thoughtful, and had a delightful sense of humor. When talking about local foods on the way to Castle Mora, Sarah passed out local cookies for us to taste.
Sarah also kindly recommended great restaurants for pizza and cannolis and chocolate tasting and gave us shopping advice. We thoroughly enjoyed Taormina and this Tour company with its attention to detail.

Fun and educational tour. They had us back to the ship in time to do some shopping in town. Sara was great and our bus driver was as well (can’t remember his name). Was nervous of doing a tour not from the ship, but all was good and I would definitely do it again.
