Taormina

[Edmontontraveller]

The hop on/Hop off bus was a very poor experience for us in Taormina. They never came and we ended up having to take a taxi back. They have many caveats that they dont' tell you about when they talk to you and sell the tickets. Basically they can ask you to get off and give up your seats, that they are do not take responsibility for following the schedule, and they may not have seats when you come. It was not a good experience. It was aggravated perhaps by having an overwhelming number of cruisers in town due to multiple tenders and the community being overwhelmed and we also having a significant rainfall.

Generally speaking this is not a spot where a HOHO would be recommended, not sure I even knew one existed. Most people on there own just walk the main drag with periodic slants off to interesting side streets. There are only a handful of must see sites all of which are walkable. Sorry you had a bad experience but would suggest others research what to do on their own.
