This experience takes you to the charming hilltop villages of Savoca and Forza d’Agrò, where Francis Ford Coppola filmed some of the most memorable moments of the trilogy.

Beyond the cinematic aspect, you will explore traditional Sicilian towns, far from mass tourism, where time seems to stand still and the atmosphere remains unchanged.

A perfect combination of film history, local culture and breathtaking landscapes.


ITINERARY

The experience begins with a scenic drive along the Ionian coast, offering beautiful views of the sea and the surrounding countryside.

The first stop is the medieval village of Savoca, one of the most iconic filming locations of The Godfather. Here, you will walk through narrow streets and visit the famous Bar Vitelli - one of the most recognizable filming locations from The Godfather - Part I, where Michael Corleone asked for Apollonia’s hand, and the Church of Santa Lucia, where their wedding scene was filmed.

After exploring Savoca, the tour continues towards Forza d’Agrò, another charming hilltop village featured in the movie. From here, you will enjoy spectacular panoramic views over the coastline. This town was mostly set of outdoor scenes of the second and third movies of the Godfather Trilogy - as the Church of the Santissima Annunziata.

Throughout the experience, your guide will share stories about the movie, the real Sicilian culture and the history of these villages.

There will also be free time to explore, take photos and enjoy the atmosphere of these unique locations.
