Eva&Julien, Giardino Arancio
Eva & Julien warmly welcome you in their charming guesthouse. Immersed in the countryside near Mount Etna, the Sicilian Volcano, Taormina, Catania and the sea, Giardino Arancio is a recently restored typical Sicilian-style country house of the late 19th century; it offers all the modern comfort of a charming guesthouse, surrounded by a lush citrus garden. Giardino Arancio, is perfectly located and enjoys a magnificent 360° view on Mount Etna, the sea and Taormina. Let the amazing perfumes of citrus trees, warmed up by the Sicilian sun, take you away! Let the local wine and culture, inebriate you and surrender to the flavors and the richness of Sicilian food! But most of all, please, fully enjoy your holidays! Do you like hiking and adventure? or do you prefer rest and quietness? Would you like to get advices and be guided or rather travel on your own? We will be anyway there for you, always glad to help you to organize whatever part of your journey/visit/ staying; we are also ready to propose you all-inclusive packs and help you make your holidays more original and unique !
We are an Italian-French couple and have decided to live here in Sicily because we love this land. Eva , a Sicilian young lady, Julien, a French young man , fascinated by Mount Etna, it has been “love at first sight”. Our project, Giardino Arancio, comes from our common passion for trips and trekking, our will to transmit our love for this land to our guests. Eva is a professional excursion guide who worked with numerous national and international tour operators. We want to extend our passion by making Giardino Arancio, not only a true place of quietness and rest, but also the best starting point to discover Sicily in an original way, by helping you organizing your tours, your hiking and your Sicilian experiences. We will help you to plan your holidays. Our aim is to propose you an authentic journey, far from mass tourism in huge all-inclusive hotels. For that, we work with a local network of small organizations. Our philosophy is to promote the « slow tourism » format : we consider travelling as an opportunity to slow down and take time to acquire the Sicilian culture while discovering its traditions. And, of course, you may also enjoy the pleasure of
Etna : 3.350 meters high, Mount Etna is the highest active volcano in Europe and without a doubt one of its most spectacular natural wealth. Taormina is one of the most popular destination of Sicily. Its old Greek theatre overlooking both the sea and Mount Etna might turn into the most famous postcard of the island. Aci Trezza e I faraglioni : a few kilometers south, the volcano has created an amazing lava coast: from the natural swimming pools of Pozzillo to the tremendous faraglioni of Aci Trezza you’ll be stunned by the incredible shapes and colors of the waterfloors. Siracusa, ultimate historic site, wonderful and fascinating, is another UNESCO world heritage site. Magna Grecia Capital city, which was Sicily, Siracusa is a genuine jewels nestled on a peninsula. Mixing ancient and baroque remains, the old city of Ortygia is a not-to-be-missed stop of your Sicilian trip. Let yourself be charmed by Siracusa’s dolce vita, enjoying your granita sitting at the terrace of a café. Catania : Young and dynamic city, Catania is the 2nd metropolitan area of Sicily. It’s clearly worth a visit, as for the folklore of its lively fish market and its nightlife, its fascinating lava stone
