The Jewels of Sicily: Etna and Taormina Family Tour |
|
|
The “Jewels of Sicily” wait to be cherished on this tour of Etna and Taormina
| Overview | |
|
The one eyed giant, Cyclops, awaits your visit in his fabled volcanic lair, Etna.A majestic Greek-Roman theater begs your discovery in scenic Taormina. A trip to these two fascinating Sicilian sights is truly something that should not be missed. Begin your trip by traveling to the largest volcano on the European continent. With craters as deep as 3,000 feet, Etna is a haunting reminder of the Earth’s fiery and all-too-frequently unpredictable core. Your own personal Jeep tour will skirt along the ridges of Silvestri Craters, a harsh, yet beautiful series of crags and ridges from past earthquakes. Then, after a delicious Sicilian lunch, make your way to the small town of Taormina. There, walk along the impressive Greek-Roman amphitheater, the Teatro Greco. Or, at your leisure, wander through the many markets that lie along the outside. Be sure not to pass up the mulberry granite, or other delicious ice creams that are sold by vendors along the street!
