    hrs Estimate Duration

Explore the timeless city of Taormina with approximately two hours on your own to do as you wish. You'll enjoy a scenic transfer along a winding road to Taormina, a town graced with an extraordinary natural setting and an evocative medieval character. You might stroll to the exquisite Palazzo Corvaja, a beautifully ornate building whose construction began in the 15th century and which bears Arabic, Norman and Gothic influences. Wander to the Greco-Roman theater, an architectural treasure that dates back to the 3rd century BC, a reminder of how long Taormina has been a vibrant city and a superlative spot from which to take in a breathtaking panorama of Taormina, the glittering Mediterranean and striking Mount Etna in the distance. Perhaps shop along Corso Umberto, the town's main commercial street, and wander the quaint jumble of elegant homes and picture-perfect churches, a reminder that for centuries Taormina has fascinated poets and artists much as it will inspire you today.
