What you can expect

  • Discover the best of eastern Sicily on an exclusive 3-day private tour. Experience authentic emotions, adventures in nature, and traditional flavours. Depart from Catania and be guided to the Etna, the crystal-clear waters of Taormina, and the timeless charm of Ortigia, the beating heart of Syracuse.

    Day 1: Etna Adventure and Taormina Charm
    Begin your experience with a private pickup from Catania. Board a 4x4 jeep to explore the lunar landscape of the Etna Park, accompanied by a certified naturalistic guide. Walk among ancient craters and lava flows, discovering the secrets of the highest active volcano in Europe. After the adventure, enjoy a delicious tasting of local wines and typical products at a farmhouse at the foot of Etna. In the afternoon, arrive in Taormina, the pearl of Sicily, where you can enjoy a typical dinner with a view of the sea.

    Day 2: Private Cruise and Relaxation in Taormina
    After a free morning to visit the famous Greek Theatre or stroll through the boutiques of Corso Umberto, embark on a private cruise. Sail along the coast of Isola Bella and the Grotta Azzurra, with stops for dives and snorkelling in the crystal-clear waters. Relax and enjoy an aperitif on board, before an afternoon dedicated to sunbathing and relaxation at an exclusive beach club. A day of sea and beauty, immersed in the unique colours of Sicily.

    Day 3: Syracuse, Ortigia, and Sicilian Cooking Class
    Depart for Syracuse, where you will explore the ancient island of Ortigia with an expert guide, among baroque squares, historic markets, and artisan shops. Then, participate in a private cooking class in a typical Sicilian house: learn to prepare traditional recipes such as pasta alla Norma or arancini, followed by a convivial lunch based on the dishes cooked together. An authentic and engaging way to get to know the true gastronomic soul of Sicily.
