Taormina, Sicily

Discover Taormina — Private Tours, Experiences & Custom Travel

Overview

Just 40 kilometers away from Messina, perched 200 meters above the sea, one finds Taormina. Here there are vistas looking out over the Ionio sea and the Volcano, Etna. A short stretch of sea divides Taormina from the beautiful beaches of Mazzarò, Giardini Naxos and Isola Bella. The town is known world wide for its tourist facilities and its natural beauty.

The Piazza del Duomo with the Cathedral of St Nicolò, the Church of St Agostino, the Church of St Giuseppe, Porta di Mezzo, Palazzo Ciampoli, Palazzo dei Duchi di St Stefano, the Convent of St Domenico, the Naumachia and the theatre, dating back to the time of the Empire, are all worth visiting.

Among the many events which take place are the Taormina Arte and the Taormina Film Festival, which have become Internationally important. With its long tradition of hospitality, it is hardly surprising that Taormina has a fabulous cuisine with superb fish dishes and a host of delicacies using the local lemons.

“I went to high school with the owner of the company who organized my honeymoon for myself and my now wife from Tokyo. We spent three short weeks seeing Piedmont and experiencing wine paradise there, then heading to Nice in France with our private driver and flying to Rome where honestly 4 days is NOT enough. They keep saying to spend more”

“I have traveled to Italy 2x with the IVS for my own pleasure trips and 2x for business with IVS. These guys really pay attention and make your trip go like clockwork. Italy is nuts, just saying! There are so many rules and restrictions now, so we did not want to drive ourselves. Having traveled with them many times and done business on se”

“As a travel agent, but also a traveler to Italy, thee is no other company I would recommend than the Italy Vacation Specialists. Not only do they really care about what they are doing, they also really know Italy and try to educate many people about ways they can best see the country and not fall into tourist traps. I have been on 4 trips”

“The trip was great; we appreciate all the hard work you and your team invested to make our experience a once in a lifetime trip. We appreciate all the attention to the details, in particular Giuseppe spending the time and the focus with us on the road and as we were exploring your great country.”

“In September of 2018 I brought a group of 12 from Venice to Sicily and organized all of my services with the Italy Vacation Specialists. Being a travel agent and in the business, I know how complicated organizing travel arrangements can be in Italy and the IVS team took a huge burden off of me! I would like to start of by saying "THANK YO”

“This company really knows their stuff and recommended our family to stay longer in each location. We didn't listen to them, but wished we had in every single place we went. They recommended Sestri Levante over the Cinque Terre which was our favourite destination on our entire trip. We visited Rome where we stayed in the outstanding Hotel ”

“I am a travel agent with All About Honeymoons and I would highly recommend Italy Vacation Specialists. Jessica was wonderful in helping us plan in a last minute anniversary vacation during high season without any issues. She even checked on our clients while on vacation to make sure things were going well. I plan on using them again soon ”

“In August 2018, my family of four and myself travelled from Vancouver, BC to Rome Italy and spent 3 weeks touring Italy with IVS. This company had come highly recommended by many friends and associates of ours who had used them before and indeed to say they do an outstanding job is an understatement. You can tell while being in Italy that”
