Taormina, Savoca and Castelmola: visit the beauties of these three famous towns in Sicily, starting from “The Godfather” scenery!

WHAT'S INCLUDED

WHAT TO EXPECT

1. Savoca
Our first town of the one day tour will be Savoca, a characteristic medieval town. We will visit one of the fascinating catacombs of the Cappuccini Convent which hosts the mummified bodies of monks and nobles from Savoca.The bar Vitelli is the highlight of the tour: become famous in the scenes of the film The Godfather, here you can taste a delicious Sicilian granita and look at the photos taken during the shooting of the film.
2. Taormina
Our second town will be the majestic Taormina. You can here visit the Greek Theatre (ticket is not included in the price), one of the major Ancient sites in Sicily, which offers a unique panoramic view of the sea and Mount Etna. Walking along Corso Umberto, you can visit the Cathedral and enjoy the stunning view of Capo Taormina bay.Here in Taormina you will enjoy a free Sicilian snack: delicious tasting of products typical from Sicilian culinary tradition as the famous “tavola calda – hot table“. You will eat different arancini, pizza, calzoni, with Sicilian Doc wine.
3. Castelmola
Next stop will be in Castelmola, a characteristic medieval suburb suspended between the sky and the sea. Castelmola is considered a big balcony on Taormina, also here you will enjoy a fantastic view of Etna on one side and the Ionian sea on the other. From the square Sant’Antonio begin our walk in the alleys. Around the small streets it’s possible to see small shops that sell souvenirs, laces and embroideries made by locals women. Finally the last stop in Castelmola is the visit of the “Bar Turrisi”, a very typical bar for a good coffee or a tasting of almond wine, typical Sicilian dessert wine.

We took this trip with Mirco and had an excellent experience. It exceeded expectations (even with some rain) and we had the best small group. Everyone was engaged and Mirco was well prepared with information prior to each stop. Lunch in Castelmola was a delight and there was olenty of time to explore each stop. Highly recommend.

Andrea was an excellent driver who was knowledgeable about these three towns. We had lots of time on our own to explore and I enjoyed the tour very much.

Daniello was the most amazing driver and guide. His knowledge and love for Sicily is clearly evident as he explained the history of these areas to us in easy to understand English. He even parked the car in a cool spot while we toured with our free time. Beautiful mix of different areas. Full day we'll spend! Take this tour! Wear comfortable shoes. Excellent way to spend the day and to learn more about beautiful Sicily. What a great value too! We also met new friends. Thanks Daniello!
