#3 Smart Cruise Tours w/Casey&Ryan This Tour is Full

Godfather Tour and Taormina - 410 euro for 7-8 people (Appr $68 US per person which is $2 less than the "Taormina on Our own Ship Tour"

   "Leaving the port we will reach the charming town of Savoca. Savoca is not a tourist town, it is a simple every day "local" town set on the hillside of the foothills of the S. Peloritiani. This is where Al Pacino and Cast shot the GodFather Film. Following their footsteps and visiting the places that were so often shown throughout the movie will bring back many memories. While in town "a must" is the stop for a Lemon Granita at the famous bar "VITELLI" on the corner of the town, one of Coppola's favorite spots, and seen many times throughout the film.
From Savoca we will visit Forza d'Agrò which is without a doubt one of the best examples of a typical village of the Province of Messina which still conserves its medieval street layout and on all sides of the town you have the most incredible views. Here we have tradition, culture, history, art all awaiting you.
We will then take you to the historical centre of Taormina where you can have your own free time to explore the village, stroll the streets and narrow alleyways with picturesque corners and nice shops. We can suggest a good local place for something to eat. You will have the time to visit the Greek Theatre (€8 pp entrance tickets not included) and the most important highlights of Taormina."

We are in port from 8 to 5, so I have asked for the tour to be 7 hours, vs the normal nine (9).

We have booked a vehicle for 8, and we are a 'group' of four, so we have 4 spaces available.
Total cost will be 62.5 Euros pp, if we have 8!  Lunch and tips not included... 
We have one (1) 'courteous' smoker in our group, just so there are no unknown issues..
Once we have eight (8) signed up, I would like those going to make up an envelope with the $$,
owed to the Driver at the end of the tour, so that your seats are guaranteed, and get them to me
at the Meet and Greet on April 9!  You can locate me easily..  I'll be the only adult wearing a Snoopy shirt!

#5 Messina Tour by Tommaso Panté w/Oylanz1
This tour has been cancelled.

#6 THE ETNA EXPERIENCE & TAORMINA: This Tour is Full
Mt Etna Volcano is one of the world's most active volcanoes, and the most active one in Europe. It has been erupting for several million years. We will be picking you up from the shore of your port and to mount Etna through several Sicilian towns, passing old lava flows. During the ascent different kinds of vegetation can be noted. We will reach 2.000 meters / 7.000 ft where we then take a walk together to visit the "Silvestri" craters (last century eruption) and the latest new lava flows and craters from 2001/2003 ­ On the way, we visit a local family farm where it is possible to taste local Etna wine, a selection of different types of honey (orange, lemon, eucalyptus, strawberry...), almond pastries, olives, extra virgin olive oil. Driving down from the mount through a wonderful pine tree forest, we get to the highlights of Taormina.

We will then take you to the historical centre of Taormina and under our tip, you will have your own free time to explore the village, stroll the mean streets and narrow ways with picturesque corners and nice shops. We can also suggest a good local place to let you have something to eat.

The driver will be waiting in Taormina and at your most convenient time, will drive you back to your ship.

Cost (depending on the number of people): 95-63 a person
