Guided tour of Lipari
Guided tour of Lipari
Guided tour of Lipari had a great success last summer 2016, that’s why, by popular demand, also for summer 2017, the Tourist Guide Association Eolie Messina Taormina proposes a dip in the archeology: every Fridays at 5 :30 p. m. and Sundays at 10:00 a. m., in a way which lets you know the thousand-year old history of the island, a tourist guide leads visitors in the discovery of the acropolis of Lipari including:
– archaeological site
– Museum
– Cathedral
Even lots of individual tourists appreciate the beauties of the acropolis of Lipari, visiting it by themselves, but they don’t fully understand its importance and value, so the need arised to offer a guided tour service.
