About Giardini-Naxos
Giardini-Naxos sits on the site of Naxos, the first Greek colony in Sicily, so its streets, seafront and museum layers carry a story that stretches back nearly three millennia. A guided walk such as the Giardini Naxos: History & Legends Tour with Expert Guide unpacks that Greek, Roman and medieval heritage close to the water, while film-focused travellers can head inland on the Taormina: The Godfather Film Tour to Savoca and Forza d'Agrò to see how Sicilian history and cinema intertwine in the hill villages above town.
