Sicily tour: Savoca "The Godfather" village.

An ordinary Sicilian village, once notable only for the insane beauty of the surrounding nature and views from a height of 300 meters.. Everything has changed in a moment and this place became famous all over the world. A small authentic Sicilian village Savoca, easy reachable by car from Taormina, Catania or Messina, is the filming location of the famous"The Godfather"movie. It's one of the most demanded tour in Sicily!

Francis Coppolo originally planned to create the Sicilian part of the film in the city of Corleone. But the director did not like the very homeland of Don Vito, but the landscapes of the small village of Savoca were just asking for a meter on film. Finally it's it happened here, in Savoca, and now you can come and see this village with your own eyes.

It is impossible to stop enjoying the aromas of fresh pastries, the sounds and views of nature, the tranquility, the beauty of ancient buildings, Sicilian houses and churches, dilapidated castles...forever imprinted in the history of cinema..

Tourists from all over the world come here to walk around the places of "The Godfather" movie and, perhaps, to see a local celebrity who lives here - una segnora who played the role of Apollonia's mother..
