From the Taormina-Giardini train/bus station
Taormina and Giardini Naxos share a bus and train station, located in between the two towns. The best way to get here from the station is to take the bus. Every half hour or so you can catch the the bus to Giardini-Recanati, it costs €1.80 (pay the driver) to get to "Renault," our stop, and it should take five or ten minutes. When you get off, look across the street and you'll see the bakery, Gianni House is right behind that.
If you want to walk, just head south along the main road (exit the station and turn left). It's a nice 30 to 40 minute walk through the middle of Giardini Naxos. After you pass under the motorway bridge you'll see the Renault bus stops (next to the Renault dealership), and the bakery is on your left. Gianni House is right behind the bakery.
You can take a taxi for €20 or so if you wish!
