Discover the villages of Taormina and Castelmola and their unique and impressive views with us.
Castelmola Sicily is one of the most beautiful villages in Italy, at 550 meters above sea level. We will wind up in its panoramic square, where we will be surprised by the view, on one side, of Mount Etna- the highest active volcano in Europe. We stop also at local cafès to taste the typical sweet almond wine.
Our day tour continues with a Taormina tour, to visit the most popular tourist destination of Sicily, which was recently made if possible even more famous by the second season of White Lotus Sicily.
During the Taormina tour in Corso Umberto, you will be fascinated by an explosion of colors, sounds, and flavors typical of Sicily. Don’t miss churches, ancient buildings, and exclusive boutiques, as well as great views to take fantastic photos!
The Taormina and Castelmola tour will be an unforgettable and multi-sensory experience.

Great shore excursion from the port in Messina. Great views from Taormina and Castelmola would definitely like to go again and spend more time exploring the area.

An amazing tour with Claudia as our tour guide and Diego our driver! Seeing the beautiful landscape of eastern Sicily from Messina to Castelmola and Taormina was more beautiful than we expected. Claudia gave a history of all the areas we passed by and gave excellent recommendations while in the towns. Had excellent views of Mt. Etna and the Ionian Sea. Would recommend this tour to anyone traveling to Messina.
