Best boat tours Taormina
As an advice, personally I would not go on any tour for more than 4 hours. The bays worth a visit a four (Giardini Naxos, Isola Bella, Mazzarò and the mermaids bay) and are one next to the other, a four hours boat trips will give you time to go for a swim, chill out while sun bathing and to enjoy some fruit and a glass of wine. Second piece of advice, regardless of the type of boat tour you decide to go for, depart always from Giardini Naxos Harbour, you might ask why? Well, you get to see the whole of Naxos bay, prices can be cheaper and usually on board even with the two hours boat trip you get free drinks. Another positive thing about sailing from Giardini Naxos is that you will find a spot to park, even at the peak of the summer season. Do not belive anybody who claims "well our tour is different" the bays are always four, the landscape is identical so if they wanna charge you more they must provide better quality drinks, better food and a better boat. For the two hours boat tour the standards are all the same so €25 to €30 is what you wanna pay. Let's go and see which is the best boat tour for you while visiting Taormina.
