Shared 4-hour Messina to Taormina shore excursion with Greek Theater ruins, cathedral sights, and 2 hours free time plus round-trip transport.
“This ended up being a private excursion which was great. Taorimina was a cute little Italain town and fun to visit. Driver was very good - there were traffic issues on way back to Messina and he was in constant contact with other drivers and found us a better way back to town. Driver stopped in a few spots in Messina as well. Driver's spoke ok English.”
Catania shore excursion to Taormina and Castelmola with a small group, Greek Theatre sights, cathedral stops, and Etna and Naxos views.
“Excursion was brilliant. Highlight of our holiday! Micheal was amazing and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide.”
Ride a Segway through Messina’s highlights, from the Duomo to Arab-Norman churches and rebuilt boulevards, in about 3 hours.
“Very fun experience. I was very nervous at first but they were very patient and in no time I was cruising along like a pro. My teenagers loved it and our guide was very knowledgeable. Highly recommended.”
