This five-hour EtnaTribe tour picks you up in Catania and visits Giardini Naxos, Castelmola, and Taormina in a minibus for up to eight people. Expect coastal views, medieval streets, White Lotus filming locations, and free time near Taormina’s Greek Theatre. Guides may include Giuseppe, Salvatore, Enzo, or Andrea.
“Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable. The tour was beautiful, although a bit difficult at time with little kids. Isola bella is beautiful but is a very rocky beach so make sure you have water shoes. My kids had wanted to go to play in the water but found it difficult to enjoy because there was no shade and all the rocks. Bring an umbrella or bring you wallet to rent an umbrella (I had forgotten mine in the car) Overall 5 stars if only for adults or teens. 4 stars if you are bringing little ones.”
