THE "GODFATHER"  AND TAORMINA TOUR FROM MESSINA PORT:  

 

Suggested Tour:

 

Leaving the port we will reach the charming town of Savoca. Savoca is not a tourist town, it is a simple every day "local" town set on the hillside of the foothills of the Peloritani Mountains. This is where Al Pacino and Cast shot the "GodFather" Film. Following their footsteps and visiting the places that were so often shown throughout the movie will bring you back many memories. While in town "a must" is the stop for a Lemon Granita at the famous bar "VITELLI" , one of Coppola's favorite spots, showed  many times throughout the film.

From Savoca we will drive to Forza d'Agrò which is without a doubt one of the best examples of a typical village of the Province of Messina which still preserves its medieval street layout and on every side of the town you have the most incredible views.  In this town you will find local traditions, culture, history and art. 

 

We will drive you then to the historical centre of Taormina and under our tip, you will have your own free time to explore the village, stroll the mean streets and narrow ways with picturesque corners and nice shops. We can suggest a good local place for lunch (not incld). You will have the time to visit the Greek Theatre and the most important highlights of Taormina. After lunch, will drive you back to Messina Port to drop you off in front of the ship again.
