Taormina Day Trip + Winery Tour

The tour departs from the Messina port, proceeding to Taormina, located about an hour's drive away on the east coast of Sicily.

Accompanied by an English-speaking guide, we will embark on a guided tour of Taormina, learning about its history while admiring its ancient churches and monuments. We'll stroll along Corso Umberto and through Piazza IX Aprile.

After exploring Taormina, we'll head to Etna, reaching the slopes of Europe’s largest active volcano, at 3,300 meters tall. Here, we will discover how the climate and soil are conducive for vineyards, leading to the region's renowned wine. We will visit a local winery to tour its facilities and learn about wine production.

This will culminate in a wine tasting of red, white, and rosé wines, accompanied by local delicacies such as salami, olives, local cheeses, and Sicilian pasta.

At the end of the day, we'll return to Messina.
