Savoca, Forza D’Agro, Castelmola, and Taormina

[Crockett Man]

I am looking at doing a Godfather tour on my upcoming visit to Sicily. Most all of the tours stop at Savoca, Forza D’Agro, Castelmola, and Taormina, or a combination thereof, and some tour companies will customize the tour. My question is, which of these cities is a must see and which can be left out if any?

We did this exact tour, with Sicily with Mario (great tour--funny guy--great drinks/Sicilian pastries)--in December 2013, from Catania--if I had to drop one, presumably in the interests of time, it would be Forza D'Agro. The other ones, especially Taormina, IMO, are not to be missed.

 

You'll have a great day! Be careful, though...another tour operator, when I enquired, wanted to charge another 50 Euro, on top, just to add on Castelmola, which is a 10 minute drive!
