About this experience
The Taormina White Lotus private luxury tour is an invitation to experience the adventure of a Sicilian holiday in one day: visiting all the highlights of Taormina that appear in the movie and also sailing with a private boat around the Isola Bella’s bay!
We are pretty sure that if you are reading these lines, you probably know that Taormina is the main White Lotus filming location: great views, wonderful attractions, exclusive hotels, and a unique atmosphere made the perfect framework for the second season of this film series.
Now, we might not be able to assure you a night at San Domenico hotel, but we surely can guide you to see the places where the movie drops were shot as you cannot miss some Instagram-able photos for your profile… and envious friends!
We will celebrate this private tour with a beautiful aperitivo on the boat.
