Shore Excursions in Taormina

Discover the treasures of the Sicilian coast when your cruise ship docks in Taormina. A driver will pick you up in a private vehicle and whisk you away on a full-day shore excursion to see both Taormina and the legendary Mt Etna - a fiery volcano that is nearly always active. You'll visit the volcano's lunar-like Crateri Silvestri before making your way to Taormina. This picturesque resort town is known for its ancient Greek theater and exquisite Palazzo Corvaja, a medieval palace built in a range of architectural styles. 

When your boat docks in the Taormina port, see the sights in a fun and easy way: by Segway. A tour by self-balancing scooter allows you to cover more ground than a regular walking tour, so it's a great way to see everything that Taormina has to offer. Glide around the historical Borgo Medievale district and Villa Comunale, stop for photos by the ancient Teatro Greco, and discover the best viewpoints to see Mt Etna.

When your cruise ship docks at Taormina, take a day-long shore excursion and explore the alluring Cyclops Riviera. Take in the fishing hamlets of Acireale and Catania, and discover the region's postcard-worthy landmarks as a private driver chauffeurs you around the coast. Sites you may want to visit include Corso Umberto and the Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul in Acireale, as well as the Roman baths and theater in Catania. Any entrance fees are at your own expense.
