I hate organized tours so much because all people of the group are victims of the greedy "cicerone" (the guide) who will give us only two hours of time for sights seeing place like Taormina and then forcing us to rush in some second-rate restaurant where he/she must collect the provvision for bringing 30 or 40 people for lunch. Can't tell you how disgusting lunch it was, the last time I ate so bad was during my army tour of duty.
Anyway, only after coming back home I realized what have missed to see at Taormina, among some other sights I missed to see the Duomo.
My cicerone was mouthfull of Giardini Naxos but we could see some of it only throughout the dirthy bus windows because driver had to rush to opposite side where "his" restaurant is located. Don't ask me what's the name of that restaurant coz I didn't even care to remember it's name.
