Messina is the 3rd largest city on the largest Island in the Mediterranean.
A popular cruise port destination, this video offers the day visitor a quick simple guide to what you can see and experience with just a few hours to spare.
The port area is so close to the city that its entirely possible to walk off your ship and go exploring on your own.
This short film locates some of the best sights for you. But the best idea to ensure you have a stress free day navigating your way to them is to grab an actual tourist street map from your guest services or shore excursion people on board, or from one of the street vendors/guides outside at the port exit.
At breakfast, use your high up vantage point looking over the city to get you bearings before you leave the ship.
Leave around 10 in the morning if you want to take your walking at a gentle pace, and be on time for a special daily event in one of the towns squares (you can see a taste of that in this video!)
