How busy was the train to Taomina? Do I book them in advance? Thanks so much for such a helpful video. Loved the segment that showed pathway down to the port
We left the ship about 8 am and walked to the train station at Messina to catch the 09:15 train and were in Taormina by about 10:15. Had about 4 hours in Taormina which was plenty and caught the 14:28 train back which got to Messina at 15:36 so that gave us a couple of hours in Messina. The cruise port in Messina is very close to the town so you can judge your time in Messina depending on your all aboard time. Thanks for watching.
Yes Taormina-Giardini is correct. I'm not sure how often the bus runs but it was there waiting for us as we left the station. I would assume that the bus ties up with the train arrival times.
Amazing video. Loved the camera angles on the metro escalators. Thanks !!
Wrong video? Presumably you mean Naples which has some amazing metro stations. Thanks for watching.
Thank you for this video ! Very helpful!
Glad it was helpful!

Not busy at all either way, no need to book. Glad it was helpful.
Thank you your video was great! I would love to do this tour. What is the approximate time it took to tour both places?
