Etna and Taormina tour from Syracuse with private driver
Overview
Thanks to this tour - which will allow you to visit two pearls of the island - you will be able to discover the essence of Sicily.
You will start the tour with an independent trek along the paths of the Etna Park and once finished you will stop in Zafferana Etnea, the city of honey: here you will be able to taste the excellent local honey.
Soon after, you will leave for the beautiful Taormina. Situated on a promontory, from here you can enjoy splendid panoramic views; there are two entrances, which lead to the city center: Porta Catania and Porta Messina. Along the medieval streets of Taormina, every corner smells of Sicily: you can taste typical foods, buy typical Sicilian souvenirs and observe the beauty of the sea.
You can choose whether to independently visit the Ancient Theater, the main monument of the city, and the Villa Comunale, inspired by English gardens and home to a remarkable variety of exotic plants.
