Enjoy a day to the discovery of two wonderful locations of the Ionian coast: Messina and Taormina.
Starting from Messina, drive for almost 50 minutes and reach Taormina and walk from Porta Catania – the Southern entrance to the town – towards Corso Umberto which is its main street. Here take the opportunity to discover the monuments, the wonderful squares with their views above Mt Etna and the coast and taste an authentic Sicilian cannoli or a delicious arancino. After two hours and 30 minutes in this unique location drive back towards Messina and admire the historical heritage of Sicily’s third-largest city visiting the monuments and the churches but also the natural beauties driving among the coast till Capo Peloro – the nearest point of the island to the mainland and also the best point of observation of the Strait of Messina.
At the end of the tour, return to the departure point where the driver and the guide will say goodbye inviting you for a long second journey in Sicily.

Your guide Claudio was extremely knowledgeable of the history. He was very attentive to the individuals of the group. I would highly recommend this excursion for those seeking history knowledge. Side note, there was more than enough time to explore the area, shop, and eat.

We took the bus tour thru Discover Messina Sicily. Katia, our tour guide was very knowledgable. She came prepared and explained in detail about the area. She even told us what to eat and where to eat Sicilian food. Swordfish grilled turned to be the speciality of the Toarmina area. Anybody going to tour Messina area as a big group can reach out to her at info@discovermessina.com

We had the pleasure of doing a full day excursion with 2 wonderful guides - Sara and Mariarita.
The guides were very inviting, easy to approach and ask questions, and were funny throughout the entire day!
Our group was separated so we did a boat tour up Toarimo waterfront and was able to see the Blue Grotto caves from the boat.
We were disappointed we weren’t able to go in and possibly swing in the caves, but for safety reasons, the caves have been blocked off.
Overall, great experience and would highly recommend!!
