Details
If you're staying in Taormina and don't want to miss out on the Aeolian Islands, our boat trip to Lipari and Vulcano is just for you. As UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2000, this group of 7 islands includes active volcanoes and natural wonders that will provide us with plenty of thrills.
We will depart from Taormina by private bus with a guide on board and get to Milazzo, from where we will embark on a private motorboat to Lipari Island. During this 1-hour journey, you will have a magnificent view of the coast at Capo Milazzo and Vulcano, and a guide will explain the characteristics of the Aeolian Islands. Once arrived in Lipari, you will have about 2 hours to visit the old town, the cathedral, and the archaeological park.
Once everyone is back on board, we will reach the island of Vulcano, navigating along the Faraglioni and the Grotta del Cavallo. We will stop for about two hours on Vulcano, where you can have lunch in one of the island's typical restaurants or relax on one of the island's black beaches. After about two hours on the island, we will re-board and return to Milazzo, sailing near the 'Scoglio di Papa Giovanni' and the 'Scoglio della Sirenetta'. After having reached Milazzo we will take the bus back to Taormina.
