Nearby is the majestic Temple of Concordia, the second best-preserved Doric temple after the Parthenon. Its excellent state is from its conversion into a Christian church. In front, the bronze statue of Icarus by sculptor Igor Mitoraj depicts his fall into the sea. Next, we visit the Temple of Hercules, named for a bronze statue of the hero inside, and enjoy prickly pear trees and panoramic valley views. The tour concludes at the Temple of Jupiter, once one of the largest classical temples, partially ruined by earthquakes. A reconstructed 7-meter Telamon shows the grandeur of these ancient monuments

What are people saying about Sicily

Taormina and Castelmola Tour from Messina

Todd_J, Oct 2026

Great Tour and Guide!

My wife and I had an excellent time on this tour. We were picked up a couple hundred yards from our B&B, and dropped off in the same location. Our tour guide (I believe it was Mariarita) was phenomenal - engaging and very knowledgeable. The towns themselves were stunning. I generally do not like the rushed feeling I get from most tours, as they tend to involve several things I am not interested in. This tour, however, was perfect. Enough history and information, and inclusion of the main points of interest, and then generous free time to explore the towns on our own. Would highly recommend!

Everything was delicious, and there was certainly no chance of going hungry. Our tour guide, Allegra, was so lovely, friendly and welcoming. She made the experience even more enjoyable and was a pleasure to spend time with. If you’re visiting Taormina and want to experience authentic Sicilian food in great company, I would highly recommend this tour. Come hungry and enjoy every bite! 🇮🇹🍕🍋

Great way to see the city and enjoy some tasty bites along the way!

Carlo did a fantastic job taking us around the city and showing us a variety of local tasty bites. We left full! It was a fun and casual day and Carlo made it so much fun. I recommend this especially if you only have a short time in Palermo. We still had time to walk around afterwards, but we felt like we had a better understanding of city and its culture.

Don’t miss this experience !

An absolute highlight—Alex is the best guide! Our Mt. Etna hiking experience far exceeded all of our expectations, and that is entirely thanks to our fantastic guide, Alex! He truly made the whole experience for us. His knowledge and passion for the volcano were completely contagious, and we learned so much throughout the hike. To top it all off, the wine tasting at the end was incredibly fun and absolutely delicious. If you are planning a trip to Etna, do yourself a favor and book this—hopefully with Alex!

Mt. Etna and Taormina village full day tour from Catania

Alice_S, Oct 2026

Great experience

This was a wonderful tour of Mt. Etna and Taormina. Simone was a great guide. He was very knowledgeable about the areas. He was great at keeping in touch with us via WhatsApp. He arranged a food tasting that was enjoyable. There were several options offered at Etna -- a hike around the lower part, ATVs, or cable car and bus to a guide who walked us around Etna for about 30 minutes. We also got to tour a lava cave. Taormina was lovely, but crowded. We didn't have much time there, but enough to get a sense of the city. Simone made the van ride interesting, as he had a lot of information to impart about Mt. Etna and Taormina. He also provided recommendations for things to do and restaurants to visit in Catania, which was a nice touch.

Beaches, Blue Water, and Boat Rides

This was the first boat tour i did with multiple groups. Enjoyed getting to meet new people, and the staff was great. From the knowledge of the area, the snacks and drinks, to the time out in the water. Only thing i missed was the "bring your own towels" disclaimer. Make sure you bring one with you!

Etna Countryside Food & Wine Lovers Tour (Small Group or Private)

Tunde_N, Sep 2026

Perfect small-group Sicily experience for wine&food lovers

This tour was the highlight of our long weekend break on Sicily. Orazio was the perfect guide, telling us a lot of interesting things about the island, the language, the traditions, the connection between the people and the Etna during the drive. At the winery he handed us over to another guide who took us on a short walk along the vines and then into the cellar. Then came the tasting session - 3 lovely wines and incredible small plates to go with them, followed by a short drive to a restaurant where we were treated to more courses and more wines. Everything was delicious, we all had a great time - the perfect gastrotourism experience!
