“I was in Taormina already during 4 days before the Tour and I couldn't expect that Walking tour with Margaret would be so magnificent! She showed us small group of 8 little streets and corners hidden into the town which I didn't discover by myself. Was incredibly beautiful! Tour started at the perfect time when hot sun began to disappear, firstly we visited gorgeous Greek Theatre and then continued deep into the town. Very nice experience, cultural and not tiring at all. Highly recommended for everyone who goes in Taormina.”
