Don’t miss this opportunity. - We had a wonderful tour. Serena is very knowledgeable about history architecture and art in Sicily and especially this region and the baroque period. She is warm and generous with recommendations for further exploration and she gave us some great tips for restaurants and places to visit elsewhere in the area. You will feel fortunate just to meet such a person and will end the day with a rich appreciation for your visit.

History, architecture and churches with Serena. - We spent a lovely afternoon with Serena, who was friendly and knowledgable and took her time to show us the amazing architecture that Ragusa has to offer. We learned so much history and Serena shows us several very special churches and built an interesting story around them. I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting. We have decided to come back and stay in Ragusa, just by going on this tour.

Fabulous tour! - This was a really nice tour. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable, and provided not only a history or Ragusa but also of Sicily in general. Plan enough time to park in the lower town and take a bus to Ragusa Superiore to start the tour or vice versa.

Book this tour! - If you're staying in Ragusa or only have a few hours to explore, I highly recommend taking a tour with Serena. She brings both sides of the city to life with engaging stories about Ragusa's rich heritage. Her extensive knowledge of each site, combined with her thoughtful itinerary, ensures you'll visit some of the most scenic spots in all of Sicily. The tour was exceptionally well-organized, and I'm so grateful for the experience. Thank you, Serena!

A wonderful walk where history comes alive! - We thoroughly enjoyed an amazing walk from Upper Ragusa down to Ragusa Ibla, including 300 steps, with Serena. We visited the important churches on the way and she explained the different typical balconies to us. Not only was Serena knowledgeable, she made the Baroque era come alive with her passion. We also had a lot of fun together. Thank you for a wonderful experience! We highly recommend Serena as guide for anyone who wants get to know Ragusa's and Sicily's vast history.
