What you can expect

If you're craving a mix of volcanic wonder, coastal elegance, and unforgettable Sicilian landscapes, this Mt. Etna and Taormina ride delivers it all. Dive into the dramatic beauty of Europe's most active volcano before spending a leisurely afternoon in one of the Mediterranean’s most photogenic towns.

  • Fully Customizable & Private – Your driver is happy to adjust timing and stops based on your preferences.

  • Pickup and drop off included with a professional, English-speaking driver.

Begin your day with a comfortable pickup from your hotel in Catania and a scenic drive through lava-sculpted terrain.

First, explore the fascinating Mt. Etna South Crater (Silvestri Craters), where you'll walk along the Silvestri Craters on Mt. Etna’s southern slope. The barren black lava fields and occasional sulfur steam vents create a landscape unlike any other in Europe.

Your next stop is Zafferana Etnea Village, the charming mountain village of Zafferana Etnea. Known for its honey and artisan goods, it's a great place to stroll a bit, try some local treats, and enjoy views stretching to the Ionian Sea.

Then it’s on to Taormina Old Town & Greek Theatre, the hilltop town of Taormina. Enjoy free time to discover the beautifully preserved Greek Theatre, vibrant Corso Umberto shopping street, and panoramic terraces overlooking the sea.

Before heading back, pause at Isola Bella Viewpoint & Walk, the breathtaking Isola Bella Nature Reserve. This tiny islet is connected to the mainland by a narrow strip of sand, making it perfect for photos, a short walk, or simply admiring the crystal-clear waters.

Please note: Tickets for the Greek Theatre are not included in the ride price.
