Top Taormina Food & Drink

"Alfredo was a brilliant guide. We felt like we learned a lot about the area during the lovely relaxed tastings. We would definitley reccomend this to any of our friends travelling to the area. It was a brilliant way to sample local dishes and wine."

"From start to end, this was the most amazing day. Bruno was warm and knowledgeable. He treated us like family with insights on the area and made sure all was perfect at each of the vineyards we visited. He curated a perfect day- private winery tour in the country, lunch with an amazing view at buzzy Gambino, and wrapping up the day with the delicious wines, hospitality and breathtaking views at Gibellina. I must add we felt at ease the entire trip thanks to Bruno ensuring we had water, tea, coffee, peaches (from his home!)… it was a true delight."

"An amazing experience, Salvo was the perfect host and guide. The vineyard was beautiful, and wine tasting was very informative, relaxed and fun. Lunch at the farmhouse, delicious. One of our best days in Sicily."

"This was hands down so much fun! Not your run of the mill class, Giovanni and his crew were attentive, informative, and went above and beyond to make the class fun. We met great people from across the globe and had plenty of laughs over food and wine. Truly a memorable experience and I highly recommend taking the class - you won't regret it!"

"I can't recommend this tour enough! Our tour guide Roberto was excellent. Really knowledgeable and very funny. Mount Etna is absolutely stunning as is the Alcantara Gorge. Our meal and wine tasting were really superb too. All in all it was a great day and I would do it again next time we are back in Sicily."

"A day that will be remembered. Giuseppe is a pro for sure - punctual, informative and friendly. Very convenient to be riding around in a modern comfortable car. Etna was beautiful and the wine tasting and lunch at gambini was superb!"

"One of the highlights of our trip. Massimo is incredibly knowledgeable and funny, you’ll get a sincere and insightful view on the whole process of choosing, cooking and eating Sicilian food. Him and Munir make you feel at home and give you all kinds of recommendations even for when you leave the class. Totally recommended!"

"Our guide, Bruno, was really funny and interesting. We had a good time and we especially love the town of Savoca. But the time between the "dégustation" and the lunch was to close, so we were not hungry at all the enjoy the nice plate of fish."

"Our guide was excellent. From pick up and back, explained in detail obout scillian life, culture and traditions. I woyld definitely recommend him. Thank you"

"We went on the Etna Wine Tour towards the end of September. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and good company. It was a small tour with one other couple and we visited 2 vine yards on the slopes of Mount Etna. Both vine yards were beautiful and the hosts made each tour very interesting and not only allowed us to sample their wines but provided us with a range of lovely food as well. Couldn't have asked for a better tour."

"All 4 of us enjoyed our Private Tour up and around smoldering Etna. Though we just missed recent lava flow activity, our engaging and experienced Sicilian guide Roberto did an amazing job explaining the geology, geography, history and culture of the region. Interesting and fun. The tour ended at sunset with an incredible meal at the historic local Murgo Vineyard, where local Sicilian specialties were paired with various wine selections. At sunset, no less. A wonderful tour with an great guide followed by a delicious meal. As good as it gets. Highly recommend."

"This was a wonderful half day sailing adventure that exceeded expectations. The company location is easy to find and check in was seamless. The company was very good at communication with us through text messages prior to the trip. The boat captain Gregorio was fully engaging, informative and a competent sailor. The trip, as advertised, was limited to the Taormina Bay area and included time for swimming very near Isola Bella. Gregorio provided some light snacks (ham, cheese, melon, sun dried tomatoes and olives) and wine. All in all, it was a very nice carefree half day adventure in beautiful weather. I highly recommend it."

"He made it a memorable day for our group. He was caring, fun and generous with his history of the areas. Our driver, Louisa, got us to and from our stops safely and conscientiously."

"My family and I had a wonderful experience. Each winery had its unique presentation and taste. The luncheon was delicious."

"The walking tour was very interesting as we walked through a park and then on to the amphitheater. We were then taken to a local restaurant for the wine tasting which was really exceptional. Three wines were presented along with a nice selection of appetizers. It was a fun and enjoyable evening. We would highly recommend it!"

"Marco was an amazing guide. Very professional and knowledgeable. He went over and above to make this tour as wonderful as he could. He made this tour fabulous!"

"Guide was informative. Scenery breathtaking. Great lunch recommendation. Overall a brilliant trip for a Godfather fan, we even met Apolonia's mother!"

"This is a very good choice because you do save money by booking the three together and these tours covered most of what we wanted to do in Taormina. We did the food tour on our first evening. The guide, Salvo, was excellent; really interestiung, entertaining and interested in his guests. He's clearly passionate about his job, friendly and highly professional. He allowed the different parties on the tour to mix and enjoy each otehrs company. The three stops were all very good; nice food and wine and all explained clearly. The second trip was the Etna food and wine tour. We were lucky to have Salvo again and again he managed to get all of the differnt parties talking and enjoying the day. The winery was beautful with excellent service, generous tastings and delicious food. This was followed by a stop at a beautiful restaurant, again with great local wine and a tasty meal. The final trip was the Godfather tour - fun, informative, a nice meal and an interesting guide (sorry I don't recall his name)."
