Overview

The famous film by Francis Ford Coppola contains many scenes filmed in Savoca and Forza d’Agrò, two lovely villages located very close to Taormina, where it is still possible to recognize the places of don Vito Corleone.
Your driver will meet you at your accommodation at your most preferred time and drive you to Forza d’Agrò, a small medieval fortress village perched on a hill at about 420 meters above the Ionian sea in Sicily, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding area.
Afterwards, you will reach Savoca, a charming medieval village, set in the rock of a hill. You will walk along the typical medieval streets and you will reach the Church of Santa Lucia, where the wedding scene between Michal and Apollonia was filmed. Unmissable stop at Bar Vitelli, where time seems to have stopped years ago.

Forza d'Agro

Forza d’Agro is a small medieval fortress village perched on a hill at about 420 meters above the Ionian sea in Sicily. Forza d’Agrò’s exceptional location on a hilltop offers breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding area: the Ionian coast, the bay of Giardini-Naxos and even Mount Etna. You can enjoy astonishing views right from the center of Forza d’Agrò. The village of Forza d’Agrò has remained largely untouched by modernization. There are still many traditional Sicilian houses and buildings. The lanes are paved with stone. This is why the best activity here is wandering around.

Savoca

Savoca is one of the most beautiful villages in Italy. This small town is set in the rock of a hill of dual tip. The basalt blocks lying on roads leading between separate small houses, freshly restored with Sicilian tiles on the roofs and windows framed in stone, then following streets in the rock here you’ll find extremely fragmented ruins and old cisterns. Up high, overseeing, are the ruins of the castle Pentefur, a building of questionable origin, perhaps Phoenician, Arab or maybe Norman. In medieval times, the village of Savoca was surrounded by a wall with double entrance built by the Normans. It is an imposing structure that still remains the City Gate today, a pointed arch made of local stone.

Bar Vitelli

First unmissable stop is at Bar Vitelli, where time seems to have stopped years ago. Inside you can admire not only pictures and scene related to the saga of Don Vito Corleone, but also ancient objects related to Sicilian tradition, making this bar a small museum. Sit and taste their wonderful lemon Granita! Enjoy the panorama from Piazza Fossia just in front the bar.
