An old photo of an unforgettable day in Taormina, Sicily: a boat excursion with skipper Roberto around Isola Bella. He’ll show you Sicily’s Blue Grotto and more.
Look for Roberto and his colleagues along the beach when you take the funicular from the upper town down to Via Nazionale, where you can access Isola Bella. Roberto will have you laughing and smiling in no time, like I was this day in 2017!
