Highlights

Immerse in the stunning medieval locations of the Godfather Saga: Savoca and Forza d’Agrò are the Sicilian destinations for the best Godfather tour from Taormina. In Savoca and Forza d’Agrò, each visitor would be fascinated by the authentic medieval atmosphere, recalling the timeless scenes from the movies filmed between the 1970s and 1990s. Walking around the tiny streets as Michael Corleone (Al Pacino), you will discover the pretty churches and monuments that appear in the movies. Not so far from the Mother Church in Forza d’Agrò, a beautiful testimony of baroque style, you will walk upstairs to reach the house where Don Vito Corleone was born. Savoca is where the most iconic scenes from The Godfather I were filmed, just outside Bar Vitelli (it still works as a café) and Michael and Apollonia’s wedding scene at the uphill Church of Saint Lucy.

About Taormina

Taormina is a hilltop town on Sicily's east coast, with an ancient Greek theatre facing Mount Etna, a main street of palazzi and sea views over the Ionian.

Taormina clings to the slopes of Monte Tauro, about 200 metres above the Ionian Sea, with Mount Etna smoking to the south-west. Its ancient theatre, begun by the Greeks in the 3rd century BC and later rebuilt by the Romans, still hosts concerts and performances, and from the upper rows Etna and the coast fill the view. The main street, Corso Umberto, runs between two town gates, past churches, palazzi and small shops, to Piazza IX Aprile, a terrace over the sea.

Top-ranked sights in Taormina: Isola Bella, Corso Umberto I, Taormina Piazza Duomo.
