The Godfather Tour
At the indicated time, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Catania and hop on a minibus to go and discover the set locations from the filming of The Godfather.
After an hour's drive, we'll arrive in the beautiful medieval town of Savoca, where we'll take you on a guided tour of the historic center. You'll see the Church of St. Nicholas, which was the location of Michael and Apollonia's wedding, as well as visit Bar Vitelli, where you can sit in the same chair as Al Pacino. The bar has hardly changed in 40 years!
During the tour of Savoca, we'll also visit a viewpoint that pays homage to the director Francis Ford Coppola with a curious sculpture. This monument with the Ionian Sea in the background makes for an unforgettable view!
Next, we'll visit the town of Forza d'Agrò. When we get there, we'll walk through the town's historic centre and admire monuments like the Church of the Holy Trinity and the Church of the Annunciation, which appeared in the second and third installments of The Godfather. In fact, this town was the location used to recreate Michael Corleone's hometown!
Our final stop will be in Taormina, where you'll have around 1 hour 30 minutes of free time to eat some lunch. You can also make the most of this time to stroll through its beautiful historic centre. Palazzo Corvaja, the Clock Tower, the Ancient Theatre, the Cathedral and more await!
The tour will finish upon our arrival back at your hotel after between 7 and 8 hours in total.
