Taormina & Isola Bella Excursion

At the time of your choice, we'll meet on Via I Settembre in Messina. From there, we'll travel by bus to Taormina, a journey that takes just 50 minutes.

Once we arrive in Taormina, we'll start exploring this jewel of the Sicilian coast and learn curious historical facts. During a two-hour guided tour, we'll take you through the historic center of Taormina, revealing how Romans, Arabs, Normans and Greeks have left their mark on this city.

You'll see the old city gates of Catania and Messina, the last remains of the town's defensive walls. Making our way down Corso Umberto I, we'll also see different churches and palaces along this main thoroughfare, including the subdued facade of the 13th-century St. Nicholas Cathedral.

Then, you'll have an hour of free time to recharge your batteries, after which we'll board a boat to marvel at one of the most amazing landscapes of the Taormina coast.

For two hours, we'll sail through the waters of the Ionian Sea enjoying views of Isola Bella, a gorgeous small island that occasionally turns into a peninsula.

At the end of the cruise, we'll return to the bus and head back to Messina, after an exciting seven-hour excursion.
