Book a transfer from Catania to Taormina — Sicily's most glamorous resort town perched on a cliff above the Ionian Sea with breathtaking views of Mount Etna.
The 50 km journey takes 45 minutes to 1 hour along the A18 motorway hugging the eastern Sicilian coast. The dramatic profile of Mount Etna — Europe's tallest active volcano — dominates the skyline throughout the journey.
Taormina is a hilltop jewel on Sicily's eastern coast, famous since the Grand Tour era for its spectacular setting. The ancient Greek Theatre (Teatro Antico), with Mount Etna as its natural backdrop, is one of the most photographed sites in Italy. Corso Umberto, the elegant main pedestrian street, is lined with boutiques, cafes, and palazzos. Below town, the beautiful Isola Bella beach and cable car ride down the cliffs add to the allure. Taormina has hosted everyone from Goethe to Elizabeth Taylor and continues to attract the international jet set.
