Overview

Taormina sits on a terrace above the sea, with Etna in the background. One day is all for the town: the Greek-Roman theatre, the Odeon, Palazzo Corvaja, the Cathedral, the gardens of the Villa Comunale and shopping along Corso Umberto.

The next day you go up Etna, the highest active volcano in Europe, with viewpoints and a visit to a lava cave. On the way back, a stop at an organic farm to taste wine, oil, honey and local products.
