MESSINA

The Port of Messina, overlooking the legendary Strait of the same name, is the prime gateway for exploring the wonders of Eastern Sicily. Thanks to its strategic location, it offers cruise passengers the opportunity to immerse themselves in a region rich in ancient history, breathtaking volcanic landscapes, and unparalleled food and wine. We have handpicked the best guided shore excursions, specifically tailored to your cruise ship's schedule, to ensure a stress-free experience.

By staying in the city, you can discover the best of Messina's historic center, marveling at the famous Cathedral with its Astronomical Clock (the largest of its kind in the world), the historic Church of the Catalans, and enjoying the breathtaking panoramic view from the Christ the King Sanctuary. If you prefer to venture further, the magic of Taormina awaits with its timeless elegance: you can stroll along Corso Umberto, shop in exclusive boutiques, and be mesmerized by the magnificent Ancient Greek Theatre overlooking the Ionian Sea. 

Nature lovers won't be able to resist an exciting adventure on Mount Etna, exploring Europe's highest active volcano amidst lunar landscapes, extinct craters, and historic lava flows. Finally, for movie buffs, we offer a fascinating journey in the footsteps of "The Godfather": by visiting the picturesque medieval villages of Savoca and Forza d'Agrò, you can sit at the famous Bar Vitelli and enter the exact church where Michael Corleone's wedding was filmed.

Choose the perfect excursion for you, and we will take care of the rest. We provide comfortable transportation, expert local guides, and, above all, a guaranteed punctual return to your ship before departure.
