Noto and Marzamemi Day Trip from Taormina

Travel south from central Taormina to Noto, a gorgeous Baroque town just south of Syracuse. After roughly 1.5 hours on the road, arrive in the town and explore its handsome downtown streets with your host. Most of the town’s top sights are scattered along its main street, Corso Vittorio Emanuele, so look out for highlights like the Cathedral of San Nicolò while listening to your host.
Continue by coach along the Noto coast and stop at Villa Romana del Tellaro, a restored Roman villa that’s known for its excavations of ancient mosaics. After paying your entrance fee, head inside and gaze at the intricately designed floor mosaics that depict hunting scenes and Greek mythological tales. Then, return to your coach and continue traveling south.
The final stop of your day is in the sleepy fishing town of Marzamemi, one of the most southern towns in Sicily. Your visit here is spent as free time, so make the most of it by swimming, exploring or shopping for artisan crafts to take home. Perhaps take a stroll around the picturesque Old Town and admire sights like the Church of San Francesco di Paola as well as the tonnara – the town’s famous tuna production factory. Be sure to ask your guide for restaurant recommendations and enjoy a seafood lunch (own expense).
Meet your guide at the pre-arranged time and travel back north to Taormina. Your tour finishes with a drop-off at the start point.
