Other places worth the walk, and what each one costs.
This Greco-Roman theatre frames Mount Etna and the Ionian Sea in what might be the most dramatic stage backdrop in the ancient world. Though entry is paid, it remains Taormina's essential visit and still hosts summer performances.
The view from above the cable car station down to the tiny island of Isola Bella in its turquoise bay is one of Sicily's most photographed scenes. The viewpoint itself is free, and the steep path or cable car down to the beach below offers a budget day out.
