Malta to Sicily (Taormina)

2018 – Bus X 2 and also TD 2 are direct buses from Sliema to the airport….6 Euros and 20 minutes later we arrive. Our 55 minute Flight to Catania, quick and smooth. Upon arrival our driver is there …perfect! An hour later we are at our hotel!

Taormina

Taormina, a hilltop town with narrow streets designed for traffic dating back 2000 years. We stroll along the main street Via Umberto from Catania Gate to Messina Gate. Shops, restaurants and many sites to see. Even though it is the off season there are tourists strolling around everywhere. Breathtaking view of the Bay of Naxos.

Mount Etna

Amazing view of Mount Etna from our hotel. One of the world’s most active volcanoes. There was a huge eruption shortly after we departed Sicily. Mount Etna has been added to the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Difficult to stop taking photos…Morning, Noon and Evening.
