Full description
OK, let us guess. You like wine. And you like raw fish. Then we'll get along fine.
And you'll also get along with the skipper and sommelier of our gozzo tour in Taormina! A 2-hour experience to discover the scenic natural attractions of the thing, in which you can (literally) immerse yourself during a bathing stop.
You can toast this memorable excursion on board, with an aperitif and tasting of local wines !
What we will do
I will be waiting for you 20 minutes before the selected time at the meeting point in Giardini Naxos (ME). I am your skipper and I will welcome you on board my characteristic wooden gozzo!
Once we have finished boarding all the passengers, we will set sail into the Bay of Naxos and venture towards Capo Taormina and the Grotta degli Innamorati. We will enter the splendid natural setting of the Isola Bella Marine Reserve, sailing between the Faraglione and the Scoglio del Fico d'India, until we reach the Grotta Azzurra and Mazzarò.
A bathing stop is planned during the navigation. In the meantime, a wine tasting (included) will be served on board: you will taste four glasses of wine (red, rosé, white and sparkling Etna wine) from the renowned Cantina Tornatore and Cantina Gambino, while a sommelier will explain the main characteristics of the wines; everything will be accompanied by anaperitif of raw fish (included).
We will then return to the meeting point. The experience will last a total of 2 hours.
