Etna and Taormina Private Shore Tour from Catania Port
Discover the contrasts of eastern Sicily on a private shore tour from Catania with a licensed English-speaking guide. Travel to Rifugio Sapienza, set at about 2,000 metres on Mount Etna, and explore the dramatic volcanic landscape, old craters and lava fields. Continue to Isola Bella, a protected coastal reserve linked to the shore by a narrow strip of sand, with free time to enjoy the bay or swim when conditions allow. End in Taormina, where you can walk along Corso Umberto, visit the cathedral and see the Ancient Theatre at your own expense. The schedule is planned around your ship, with direct cruise-port pickup and return when port access and docking times permit.
