This Messina tour from the port is one of the Messina shore excursions that will take you to explore the legendary beauty of the natural side of Messina Sicily: you will reach the mariner villages, the lakes of Ganzirri and Capo Peloro, located in northeastern Sicily. You can admire the majestic view of the Strait of Messina between Sicily and the Italian mainland. In the summertime, you will be able to see the swordfishing activity by typical boats named felucas.
The second part of the Messina tour will continue in the downtown city with a visit to the Cathedral and the Bell Tower. You will discover the Arab–norman style of Catalani’s church, the Sanctuary of Montalto, and the Temple of Christ the King with a spectacular view overlooking the Strait of Messina and the port. During the Messina excursion, you will also admire the monument of “Madonnina del Porto” and the Fountain of Neptune.

We loved Messina so much. We stayed in Central Messina and that was all there was to see , boy where we wrong. It’s paradise Northern Messina. We fell in love with. Thanks to our guides MARIARITA and ANDREA who showed us things we never knew existed
It was like heaven. The straits of Messina, beaches all were amazing
we told them that our purpose of coming to Sicily was to go to Messina to see where my father lived when he was growing up. Their thoughtfulness kindness, and truly caring. Their interest that they took in our happiness was just above and beyond words.
They took us to the beach. They took us to Dinamarre. They took us to a place for faccacio bread sandwiches that was soooo good!!
Because they love Messina, it made us love it too!! I felt like we were near my dad.

Great day trip & guide. Picked up at the cruise ship & off to the mountains. Unbelievable views, then Taormina for lunch and time to shop. This tour was an unexpected cruise trip highlight.

This was one of the best experiences from our entire trip. The tour was so personal and informative. Our guides, Roberto and Andrea were fabulous and made the experience very special. We had our tour with another family so there were 8 adults - 6 in one van and only my husband and I in the other one. Along with main attractions we also went to neighborhoods and visited markets and beaches off the beaten path. The Bell Tower was fabulous and full of surprises. I would recommend this tour.

She even told where to go to get the best food!! We loved the churches and all the sites. Also the delicious cannelloni at the end of the tour!! Beautiful city and fantastic guide.

The visit was very enjoyable, comfortable and adapted to our expectations. They gave us a private tour at no extra cost with door-to-door pick-up at the dock where the boat docked. Highly recommended

Amazing day with wonderful guide Chiara and Antonio as a driver. Perfectly organized trip -we visited Castelnolo,Taormina and Messina, got lots of information, had enough time for everything - sightseeing, eating, and some shopping.
I was impressed with the quality of organizing.
Thank you,Chiara!

Our tour guide Cecilia was GREAT! She was very enthusiastic and knowledgeable. I have found that a tour guide can either make or break and tour and she certainly made our day. Really liked all the stops we made and the new information we gathered.
