What you can expect
Sicily is full of history and cinematic magic, and on this private tour, your local host will take you on a journey through the real-life setting of The Godfather.
Your experience begins with a private pick-up from Taormina, ensuring a comfortable and hassle-free journey to the charming village of Savoca. With private transport included, you can sit back and enjoy the stunning Sicilian landscapes as you head toward one of the most iconic filming locations of The Godfather.
Through immersive storytelling and carefully chosen stops, you’ll step into the world of the Corleone family and discover how this legendary film was connected with Sicilian culture and traditions. Walk through the medieval streets of Savoca, where key scenes were filmed, and experience the timeless atmosphere that made this village the perfect backdrop for one of cinema’s most iconic movies.
Follow your host to famous Godfather locations, including the legendary Bar Vitelli, the Church of San Nicolò where Michael and Apollonia were married, and the picturesque Via San Michele. Along the way, you’ll hear fascinating behind-the-scenes stories and explore how Sicilian traditions, beliefs, and local life shaped the film’s authenticity.
