    What To Expect

    Porta Messina (Pass By)

    Your tour guide will meet you in Taormina city centre, at the iconic Porta Messina Gate, a historic entrance to the ancient town. From here, your cultural walking journey begins. As we delve into the rich layers of Taormina’s history, art, and local traditions, we’ll stop to taste one of Sicily’s most iconic street foods — the arancino. These delicious fried rice balls, filled with classic ragù or local pistachio, are more than just a snack: they’re a symbol of Sicilian culinary heritage, rooted in centuries of cultural fusion.

    Next, we’ll continue our walk through the charming alleys of Taormina, a town rich in history, architecture, and Mediterranean atmosphere. As we take in panoramic views and elegant facades, we’ll stop at a family-run wine bar with over 40 years of history. Known for its welcoming ambiance and dedication to local flavors, this spot offers a tasting of three delicious bruschettas: one with eggplants and sun-dried tomatoes, another with mozzarella and cured ham, and a third with tuna, mayonnaise, and onion — each bite telling a story of Sicily’s simple yet vibrant culinary culture.
