Overview

As I have been living in Taormina since over 30 years I will be able to show you also the hidden corners, out of the common paths. . . This lovely spot was resort of many writers, artists, movie stars and personalities in the past and it is still nowadays. We will take a nice walk through the Corso Umberto, the popular shopping road, and visit the most famous monument of Sicily, the Greek-Roman theatre. You will discover the best part of this little town in the narrow little streets, its beautiful public garden, the panoramic squares and you will be told about the incredible stories which made this place so unique. . .

You are in for a treat.

Published on Nov, 2024

There are guides who can tell you things, then there are guides who can transform your whole experience of a place. Chiara is the latter. She is personable, articulate, enthusiastic and fun. But most of all, she gave us a much deeper understanding of this place than we would have had otherwise. She is generous with her time and was able to meet us at our level, with lots of new infomation but never talking over our heads. We loved our time with Chiara.

Great tour of Taormina with Chiara

Published on Nov, 2024

Chiara was a fabulous guide, full of interesting stories and anecdotes about Taormina and the history of Sicily in general. Highly recommend her!

Excellent introduction to Taormina

Published on Oct, 2024

We done the tour with our guide ,a Taormina native, Gerry on 18.10.24. It was done at a leisurely pace and he covered all of the local highlights with detailed historical background information which was an excellent introduction to the locality. Would highly recommend this tour and Gerry in particular.

A wonderful experience!

Published on Oct, 2024

Chiara was a fabulous host and tour guide. We explored and learned so much about the history of Taormina. We would highly recommend this tour.

Do you remember... September - Insider

Published on Oct, 2024

We have had a wonderful and extraordinary tour yesterday late afternoon. Chiara is an fantastic person and in addition to her great detailed knowledge of the tour sites you can feel that she loves her job and is dedicated to let us participate in the beauty of Taormina. We really enjoyed the time with Chiara! Imke and Thomas
