Travel Guide > Europe > Italy > Sicily > Taormina
Taormina, along with Agrigento, Siracusa and Monreale is considered one of Sicily's greatest gems. Rightly so for it presents unsurpassed views of exotic flowers, a splendid ancient amphitheatre, a picturesque coast and mountains including the Etna volcano all at the same time. Not surprisingly it is not one of the cheaper places to stay; indeed you may prefer to stay at Naxos down below on the coast and visit Taormina from there, using the funicular.
Catania-Fontanarossa International Airport near Catania is the closest airport. See the Catania article for details about airlines and destinations.
Interbus has buses to Catania (1,5 hours).
