Godfather Filming Locations in Savoca and Forza D'Agrò

Meet your guide at the agreed-upon location and drive to Savoca.
Begin this unique Godfather tour in Savoca, a village that has remained unchanged since the arrival of Paramount Pictures in the early '70s.
Stop at the picturesque Bar Vitelli, which looks exactly as it did when Michael Corleone told Apollonia's father that he was "an American in hiding" and threatened him with an untimely death in the same sentence.
Enjoy a cup of coffee or a refreshing lemon granita while recalling some of the movie's most memorable dialogues.
Stroll through the town and reach the church of Santa Lucia, where the wedding scene was filmed.
Continue to another wonderful town used as a shooting location: Forza D'Agrò. Meet some Sicilians who took part in the movie and can share little anecdotes about director F.F. Coppola and the film crew.
