Discover paradise on Earth on a full day tour of Sicily’s Aeolian Islands, North of the mainland in the archipelago of the Tyrrhenian Sea.

Following a pickup from Taormina, you will reach Milazzo harbor by bus. Next, you will cross by ferry and reach Lipari, the largest of the island group. Created by successive volcanic activity, the unique geology of the island includes steaming fumeroles and quarries of pumice stone. Wander among whitewashed houses, and see the remains of the old Greek walls. Get panoramic views of the volcanic landscape, and soak up the laid-back vibe that has attracted fashion designers and pop stars seeking a retreat from the spotlight.

Declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2000, the ribbon of 7 islands in the Aeolian group took its name from the Greek god of the winds. The most aptly named of the islands in Vulcano, swim from the black sands beaches of the South.
