Meet at your chosen time in the Piazzetta Buciuni, near Porta Catania, a 15th-century fortress. The private tour begins here, focusing on iconic monuments of Taormina.

The first stop is the Ancient Theater, an open-air venue and the second largest Greek theater in Sicily after Syracuse. Enjoy views of Taormina, the Ionian Sea, and Mount Etna.

Next, see the Naumachia, a red brick construction with eighteen large niches and smaller rectangular ones.

As you stroll through the historic center, admire buildings like the 14th-century Palazzo Duchi di Santo Stefano and Palazzo Corvaja, both in Gothic style, along with the Baroque facade of the Church of St. Joseph and the Taormina Cathedral, built in the 1400s on a medieval temple site.
