Explore some of the most exciting sites on the Sicilian coast. You'll travel along Sicily's mountainous eastern coast on a scenic two-hour journey to Europe's largest active volcano. Stop at Crateri Silvestri on Mt. Etna for a snack and some volcanic exploration. Not only will you be able to walk around the crater on your own, you'll also get to take in some amazing views of the Mt. Etna, Europe's most active volcano. It's erupted over 130 times in recorded history. You can also see the town of Catania from above, buried by an eruption over 300 years ago. Next travel to Taormina. The village was a famed holiday spot even in Roman times. Here, you'll find remnants of its Greek and Roman history, as well as many modern shops and restaurants. Experience and shop the bustling main street of Corso Umberto, and if you wish visit the stunning 3rd century B.C. Greek theater that's still used for concerts.

特記事項:

The drive from Messina to Mt. Etna is approximately two hours.

The ascent higher than 6,400 feet is not recommended to those suffering from heart diseases and/or high blood pressure. The visit to the Silvestri Spent Craters involves walking uphill 330 yards on uneven terrain. There are no facilities available at the Silvestri Spent Craters.

The ground around the Crateri Silvestri is uneven and rough. Passengers should take care when walking. Wear comfortable, closed toe walking shoes and a sweater or jacket. Temperatures can drop dramatically at the summit. Due to climatic changes, views may become hindered at any given time.

In case unfavorable weather conditions do not permit a safe visit to Mt. Etna and the Silvestri Crater, these will be replaced by a panoramic drive around Mt. Etna, a visit to the village of Zafferana Etnea and the 1992 eruption lava flow vulcanic landscape.

Lunch and touring is on your own in Taormina; bring Euro. Buses are not permitted to enter the city of Taormina. After your arrival at parking lot you will reach the city center by elevator. On your return, even if elevators are available, you may be required to use a flight of about 140 steps.

Taormina is a popular destination and passengers should expect to encounter crowds. Some stores in Taormina close during lunchtime, on Sunday, holidays and Monday mornings.

Medical Restriction:

Due to changes in altitude, this tour is not suitable for guests with difficulty walking, or for guests with heart/blood pressure/respiratory conditions.
