Itinerario
Prima di tutto ci fermeremo al belvedere appena sopra l'Isola Bella, chiamato Belvedere, che offre panorami mozzafiato. È la location ideale per ammirare e scattare foto della costa e della fantastica Isola Bella.
Mentre il nostro viaggio continua, ci dirigeremo verso l'incantevole borgo medievale di Castelmola. Questa cittadina addormentata è precariamente appollaiata sopra Taormina. Una passeggiata è d'obbligo, con i suoi freschi vicoli medievali e la pittoresca piazza che domina l'intera campagna, l'Etna e la costa ionica.
Faremo una sosta al famoso Bar Turrisi. Questo pub, situato su un'alta collina vicino a Taormina, appare molto carino dall'esterno, con i suoi numerosi balconi e gli ombrelloni cremisi che si protendono verso il cielo. Tuttavia, appena si afferra la maniglia della porta laterale, ci si rende conto che questa osteria è un po' unica tra i locali siciliani. Puoi pagare il vino alle mandorle e anche mangiare.
Madonna Della Rocca è una chiesa del XV secolo scavata nella montagna, situata proprio sotto il Castello dei Saraceni godrai di una straordinaria vista a volo d'uccello di Taormina e del Teatro Greco.
All'arrivo a Taormina Centro avrai tempo libero per passeggiare nello storico Corso Umberto. Questa è la passeggiata principale nel cuore di Taormina, ricca di eleganti negozi di design e graziosi caffè e ristoranti
Avrai tempo libero per visitare il teatro greco di Taormina
Il Palazzo Corvaja di Taormina è un palazzo medievale costruito nel X secolo. La prima fortificazione araba, costruita su fondamenta romane, fa parte della storia del palazzo. La sua struttura centrale è una torre in stile islamico, con finestre ad arco e ingressi che indicano l'influenza islamica all'interno del cortile interno. C'è un balcone decorato con vista sul cortile e una scala risalente al XIII secolo che conduce al primo piano. Il palazzo gotico-moresco è merlato e si sviluppa su quattro piani principali che circondano un cortile. Il piano nobile è caratterizzato da colonne che dividono coppie di monofore per finestrature. Rilievi raffiguranti La Creazione adornano le pareti del cortile. Il palazzo è ora un centro espositivo dove è possibile scattare foto.
Antica chiesa cattolica medievale con statue ricercate e un enorme soffitto ad arco interno. È possibile scattare foto della struttura.

We had a wonderful day in Tamina with our guide Eduardo who could not have been better. He met us at the cruise port in beautiful car and gave us an excellent tour with lots of information and anecdotes. We visited Giardini Naxos, castelmola where Eduardo introduced us to the excellent masala wine and then on to Taormina. The day could not have been better!
Eduardo was a wonderful tour guide and very accommodating to our group of 8 people.
Thank you! Come back again!
Leonardo & Eduardo were our drivers and they were great ! We ended up doing an adjusted version of this private tour, as half our group wanted to check out a nearby beach instead of Castelmola. We worked with them to figure out an itinerary that would work and they were very accommodating. If you’re thinking about whether to book a private tour or do it by yourself, definitely worth the money to book this tour ! We didn’t have to worry about the logistics or how to get from one place to another.
Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re happy we could tailor the itinerary to suit your group and that everything worked out just the way you wanted. Thank you for your recommendation, and we hope to welcome you back to Sicily for another adventure! 😊
Our family of five (my husband, our three adult children, and I) had just one day to explore Taormina while our cruise ship was in port, and choosing Excursions Italy was one of the best decisions we made. I actually found them through ChatGPT, and they exceeded all of our expectations! Our driver, Leonardo, was absolutely fantastic. He was knowledgeable, professional, responsible, and an extremely safe driver. Beyond that, he was fun, funny, and made our day so enjoyable. He was punctual at every stop, offered excellent recommendations, and helped us make the most of our limited time in beautiful Taormina. Most importantly, Leonardo carefully managed our schedule so we could relax and enjoy the day, knowing we would be back at our cruise ship well before gangway-up. That peace of mind was priceless. Excursions Italy is an honest, reliable company with clean, spacious, and very comfortable vehicles. Their communication was excellent from start to finish, and everything went exactly as planned. Taormina is absolutely breathtaking and is well worth visiting if you have the opportunity. I highly recommend Excursions Italy—especially Leonardo—to anyone looking for a memorable, stress-free day in Sicily. Thank you!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! Thank you for your kind words about us. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you and your family back to Sicily one day! 😊

We had the good fortune to find Excursions, Sicily. They were able to put together an unforgettable experience. It was customized to our wishes and Irina went way beyond expectations to try to meet our wishes. Our driver Leonardo was so knowledgeable and engaging. He shared history and culture only a true Sicilian would know. I highly recommend them for your visit to Sicily.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re truly happy we could create such a special experience for you. Leonardo will be delighted to hear your kind words. We really appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you again in Sicily!
Eduardo was amazing. He picked us up exactly on time and exactly where the email said to meet him. He was very knowledgeable about the area and provided insight into local sights. We had ample time to explore areas on our own and he was flexible about pickup times. I would recommend this tour to anyone.
Thank you so much! We’re glad you had a great experience with Eduardo and appreciated his flexibility and local knowledge. Thanks for the recommendation — hope to see you again in Sicily!
Very prompt responses by Irina when booking and answering our questions. Leonardo was our driver. He was very kind, informative, and went above and beyond adapting the tour for our elderly mothers. Will definitely book with company again when we return to Sicily!
Thank you so much for your kind words, Carrie! We’re happy you enjoyed the tour with Leonardo and appreciated our service. It was a pleasure assisting you — we’ll be glad to welcome you again in Sicily!
When first contacting Excursions Sicily Irina, immediately replied with information that we had requested and was very helpful and flexible in order to meet our needs. We ended up booking our tour with this company due to her professionalism and her flexibility and truely listen to our requests. Each and every time we contacted Irina she replied within 24 hours and addressed any concerns. Our driver and guide was Eduardo, who was extremely professional, knowledgeable, outgoing and fun which in turn made our experience more than we expected. We had Private transfers from and to Palermo airport, tour to Agrigento (Valley of the Temples) & Archeological Museum of Agrigento & Scala dei Turchi, tour to Cefalù and Castelbuono, and a tour to Taormina and Mount Etna (Teatro Antico, Corso Umberto l, Villa Comunale, Piazza IX Aprile, Isola Bella) over a 5 day period. Eduardo gave us great restaurant recommendations as well. We would highly recommend requesting Eduardo as your driver and Excursions Sicily.
Thank you so much for your amazing review! We truly appreciate your kind words and are so happy to hear that everything — from the planning to the tours — exceeded your expectations. It was a real pleasure assisting you and organizing your Sicilian experience. Eduardo will be thrilled to know you enjoyed his company and recommendations! We hope to welcome you back soon for more unforgettable moments in Sicily!
Antonio was amazing. He took such good care of my family and I. He was extremely friendly and easy to talk to and gave us great information. He answered all questions and gave us local recommendations. He was very patient with my family when we were running late getting back to the vehicle. The tour itself was absolutely incredible. We will definitely be looking to book again next time we visit. Thank you for giving my family and I the best experience!!
Thank you so much for your kind words, Jeff! 🌟 We’re delighted to hear that you and your family enjoyed the Taormina and Castelmola tour, and that Antonio made your day so special. Your appreciation means a lot to us, and we’ll be sure to share your feedback with him. We look forward to welcoming you back to Sicily for more unforgettable experiences!
