Mesina: Tesoros Ocultos, Vistas Costeras Impresionantes (5h)

Las visitas han sido genial, nos han encantado la visita museo de marionetas, la plaza Cataluña y el centro, junto a nuestra free tour chiara ha sido un encanto

Nuestra guía Chiara fue realmente excelente. Nos explicó todo perfectamente en Español durante el recorrido del tour. Un trato exquisito. Muy recomendable

La visita fue muy amena, cómoda y adaptada a nuestras expectativas. Nos hicieron un tour privado sin sobrecoste con recogida puerta a puerta en el muelle donde atraco el barco. Muy recomendable

Elegimos efectuar un paseo por el tren turístico de messina, que aconsejo se haga en el bus pues te obsequien con unos auriculares que de detallan en tu idioma los monumentos que vas viendo desde el, no aconsejo el trenicillo.

El 31 de julio paramos en Messina como cruceristas y queríamos dar un pequeño paseo. Fue solo para nosotros 4 y duró más tiempo de lo programado. Elisa vino a buscarnos al puerto y nos llevó y explicó todo con mucho interés y dedicación. Al final probamos los famosos cannolis. Un auténtico placer!!! Volveremos a Messina para seguir descubriendo Sicilia.

We only had the day in Messina and our half day tour began with a short panoramic drive along Messina's main street -- Via Garibaldi. On foot, we visited the Cathedral Treasury, where we saw the Madonna's golden mantel. You will also find a collection of important historical artwork donated by kings, bishops, noblemen, and even local people, as a token of faith and thanksgiving. Stop at the Campanile del Duomo di Messina,almost entirely rebuilt after the earthquake of 1908. It features an interesting finely-carved 15th- to 16th-century central doorway. We ate lunch at a café opposite the cathedral and watched the astronomical clock whose narrated, animated, mechanical statues are only seen at noon. Also view the Orion Fountain in Cathedral Square. Built in 1547, its polygon basin portrays Orion -- one of the legendary founders of the city. Overall the town itself does not offer much more and you may be better trying to see other places.

Awesome trip the historical knowledge of Messina was so enlightening. The tour really help Messina shine.Information provided on historical sites was very informative and Chiara’s execution of English was second to none.

Chiara was our tour guide. She is very knowledgeable and passionate about Messina and the surrounds. We are a group of 40 pilgrims from Australia and she was patient and accommodating of our needs. This business is very professional and I highly recommend.

Unfortunately our Shore Excursion was withdrawn 2 days before our Cruise ship arrived in Messina and as I had no phone signal in the previous port, followed by a day at sea, we had not time to arrange an alternative. The company offered us an alternative at no extra cost to us but the alternative tour was for 6-7 hours and too long for our party who have walking difficulties. The others in my group are in their 70's and my husband is 82 and a long trip such as that suggested is too much for us. It was such a shame as on this Cruise Itinerary Messina was the only Port that we had not visited before. The Company have confirmed a refund of course but that doesn't compensate us missing out on seeing Messina and Touring along the Sicilian coastline.

Our guide Tania, was excellent. She was passionate about her city and very knowledgeable. She was well organized yet flexible during the tour.
