Etna Taormina E Castelmola La Migliore Escursione Per Croceristi Da Messina

Excellent treatment and service! Very helpful and fun for the family.

I highly recommend this tour!! We travelled with two adults, two teenage kids and one grandparent from the Messina port. Our guide, Sonia, and driver, Giancarlo, were both absolutely fantastic. There were three accidents on the highway once we left the port and they both did a great job compensating with fabulous stops in Castlemola (very quiet and quaint), a walk through Taormina, a special stop in Savoca (the place they filmed some of the Godfather) and Messina cathedral (with an astronomical clock and organ that should not be missed). Sonia told many stories about the various people and legends from the area to keep us all engaged despite the unexpected delays.

My family and I with two friends had an absolute great experience the guide she was very informative and the driver was excellent.

We stopped in Messina on a cruise and my sister-in-law had booked this excursion. We had an amazing experience! Sonia was an amazing tour guide and was so sweet, personable and knowledgeable! She was very sweet to my son and made sure we were all safe while at Mt. Etna. Along with the beautiful places we went, we really wanted to eat at a restaurant with homemade pasta and she was able to make that happen and get us a last minute reservation. Giancarlo was our driver and was also fantastic! He had installed the car seat for my toddler perfectly (which is a huge deal to me) and was such a safe driver. He was also extremely sweet and so good with my son! We had a perfect day and I would absolutely recommend this excursion for anyone! You will be in great hands with Sonia and Giancarlo!

Sonia, our tour guide was awesome! Very friendly and easy to get along with. She catered to our wants for this trip and made us feel so comfortable throughout. A shout out to Juan Carlo, our driver, for not only being an expert driver but being so kind so our 3 year old nephew. This tour was beautiful! Sonia even went out of the way to recommend a place to eat that did homemade pasta. It did not disappoint!

This tour was the perfect mix of nature, history, and charming Sicilian towns. We went up to Mount Etna and stopped at the Silvestri Craters, which were incredible to walk around and easy to access. The scenery was surreal — black lava fields and views all the way to the sea! Afterwards, we had free time in Taormina to explore Corso Umberto, and had a wonderful lunch. The last stop, Castelmola, was such a hidden gem — quiet, authentic, and with panoramic views of Etna and the coast. We got to try pistacho gelato, to dfie for. A wonderful, well-paced day that gave us a real taste of Sicily. Thanks to our guide Sonia and driver Giancarlo.

We came back this October without the cruiseship for another amazing experience with Erika and Filippo, this time bringing other couples of friends with us to see Mount Etna for the first time, and then Taormina, and Castelmola. Erika was, as always, incredibly knowledgeable and full of passion for her island, she explained everything about Mount Etna with such warmth and enthusiasm that you can’t help but fall in love with Sicily all over again. Filippo is the perfect driver: kind, patient, and always making sure we were comfortable and enjoying every moment. The views from Etna were breathtaking, Taormina was as charming as ever, and Castelmola was the perfect final touch with its quiet beauty and stunning panorama. Thank you both, hope to see you once again!

Beautiful experience with the family Sonia is an amazing person! His energy and enthusiasm are contagious. He did a fantastic job, exceeding our expectations. His professionalism and kindness were evident at all times. I can only recommend Sonia to anyone looking for someone reliable and competent.

Experience lived great, I would recommend it to anyone, I personally 100% satisfied, I would do it again. I emphasize that the driver Giancarlo person of great experience and safe driving, the guide Sonia great beautiful charming woman, polite and very prepared in the various explanations. Congratulations to everyone.

Taormina is pure magic! The Greek Theatre is breathtaking with the sea and Mount Etna in the background. After wandering the pretty streets full of ceramics and little shops, we took a short trip up to Castelmola. The view from up there is unbelievable — you can see the whole coastline! Our tour guide Sonia was very informative with history and legends. Definitely worth the climb.
