- Dear traveler, get ready, this trip will take you to discover the beauties of the UNESCO site of Catania and its surroundings.
- You will also taste many specialties on this tour.
On this journey I will take you to discover the eastern coast of eastern Sicily, starting from Catania, the city where your plane will land. Here I will let you discover the hidden beauty of a Greek and then Roman city, which became a UNESCO site for its baroque beauties, together with other cities destroyed by the 1693 earthquake. From here, you will move for an half-day tour to the Etna Mountain UNESCO site, and, after an excursion around Bronte and Randazzo, beautiful villages on the Etna's slopes, near to the Nebrodi mountains, I will take you to visit the beauties of Taormina and Castelmola.
We will go exploring places, outside the traditional tourist circuits, whose beauty will leave you breathless.
