Itinerary
Between sky and sea, Castelmola is the crown at the head of Taormina: a balcony on the Ionian Sea, a terrace with a view of Mount Etna, a legend told to the moon.
Guy de Maupassant in "The Wandering Life" (1885) wrote "If someone were to spend just one day in Sicily and asked me what to see, I would answer without hesitation: Taorina!"
On the way back we will take a short tour of the city of Messina.

We had an absolutely amazing day on our Private Tour of Castelmola, Taormina, and Messina with our driver Carmelo. From start to finish, everything was perfect. Carmelo was friendly, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable about the area. He shared so much interesting history and local insight, and made us feel completely at ease the entire day. We saw so many incredible places the breathtaking views from Castelmola, the charm and beauty of Taormina, and the vibrant energy of Messina. Carmelo made sure we had plenty of time at each stop and even took us to some hidden gems we never would have found on our own. This was one of the highlights of our trip to Sicily! If you’re visiting the area, we highly recommend this tour and especially Carmelo. He truly made the experience unforgettable!
Thanks to all of you. Carmelo
Awesome!! They took us from the port of Messina to Taormina, and took us on a guided tour of Messina. A great experience from Santino and Valery. Hopefully again. Highly recommended!!
Gracias por elegirnos, Santino y Valery.
Our group of eight, traveling on a Princess Cruise, had an incredible experience exploring Taormina and Castelmola on our private transfer with Pellegrino Services. Both cities were absolutely breathtaking, offering stunning views, rich history, and a charming atmosphere. Santino was responsive and helpful via email when booking our private transfer. Our driver, Giuseppe, was knowledgeable and incredibly accommodating. He communicated with us via WhatsApp to ensure everything was seamless. Giuseppe took us to multiple picturesque spots, allowing us in the beauty of the region at our own pace. One of the best parts of the tour was the ample free time we had in both cities. We wandered through the streets, visited a café, browsed local shops, and fully immersed ourselves in Taormina and Castelmola without feeling rushed. This private transfer was the perfect way to experience Sicily’s charm, and we couldn’t have asked for a better day with Pellegrino Servuces. Highly recommend this option for anyone seeking a relaxed, well-organized, and unforgettable free time in these stunning locations! Matt
thanks to all of you, we are waiting for you in Sicily Santino and Giuseppe.
We had a great day today with a private transfer to Taormina & Castelmola! Santino was very responsive and helpful when we were booking the tour, and easy to find the day of. Giuseppe was our driver and he was fabulous. We were traveling on a cruise and this was an excellent alternate to the overpriced, big-bus tours that the cruise ships offer. We would definitely book again!
thanks to all of you it was a pleasure meeting you, see you next time, Santino & Giuseppe
Our original tour company didn’t show up for our prepaid tour and Pelliegrino Tours saved the day providing us with a wonderful day. They took us to all the places we wanted to visit. Very friendly and professional service and comfortable clean vehicle. Our driver/guide Ciccio was fantastic. Very friendly and fun. He showed us some unique spots and made great recommendations for eating and enjoying the areas we visited. We had an amazing day with Pelliegrino Tours and our driver Ciccio.
