Beautiful views - Taormina was beautiful and Corrado made sure we saw all the gorgeous scenery. Lunch was delicious and plentiful. Castelmora had about 120 steps to get to the top (the elevator was broken) but the view from the top was worth it. A really great day!

Excellent - It was a really good tour. We went on vacation with my wife last September and spent a few days in Sicily. Taormina is fantastic. Corso Umberto is the most beautiful street. The public garden is also great. Castelmola is a little gem with small streets full of shops. Here we tasted the characteristic almond wine. The food and wine tasting was delicious at the end of the tour
