   2h

   visit the slopes of Mount Etna to experience the lava fields and the incredible landscape view from Europe s highest and most active volcano, in June 2013 was declared UNESCO Heritage. The Etna Volcano is one of Sicily s main tourist attractions, with thousands of visitors every year. The most common route is through the road leading to Sapienza Refuge, lying at the south of the crater at elevation of 1910 m. It hosts a large parking, several bars, a hotel, and is a starting point for the cable car. From the Refuge, a cableway runs uphill to the elevation of 2500 m; from there, visitors can take a drive with special terrain vehicles, or take a long walk to the designated crater area at 2920 m.

2. 2

   Ancient Theatre of Taormina

   3h

   Time at leisure for an independent tour of Taormina, ideal for strolling and window-shopping. The core of the town is pedestrian and walking through its streets which indulge you in the Taormina atmosphere. We suggest you to relax in a cafe and taste a granita (sicilian-style water ice with granular texture and different fruit juice). Moreover you can enjoy an independent visit to the famed Greek-Roman Theatre or several minor sites to be discovered around Taormina.
