Informative and enjoyable - Walking through the small quiet town of Noto was the highlight of the day. Also, our guide was very informative, especially while walking through Ortigia. He also recommended a very good place for lunch.

Excellent tour - Alessio was a fabulous guide! He shared so much knowledge with us! Our favorite part of the tour was Ortigia! I would have given up seeing Noto in order to spend more time exploring Ortigia!

A great way to see 3 spots - Tour date: 09/14/2024 Most memorable: Noto Gianmarco was an excellent driver and guide. He is very knowledgeable, passionate, and kind. Learned a lot about the history and architecture of the three areas. Noto was my favorite. Less crowded, not overly priced, stunning buildings, great food, market. Glad I went!

Excellent day tour - A fantastic tour! Our guide Gianmarco was an incredible guide. He gave us lots of information about the history of the area, recommendations and there was just enough time in each area.

Unique - I may be biased (born in Syracuse but moved to Lombardy from an early age), but Ortigia has no comparison with anything. I go very rarely but it is always fabulous.

Sicily Never Disappoints - Lesson was an amazing & attentive guide. He handled the G7 Summit parking issues like a champ! Beautiful part of Sicily. Would highly recommend a trip to Noto at least

History on a budget with Gelato - Nice pace. You see a lot for the money but most of all are spared driving in the combative streets of Sicily! My driver Carmello was great. Don't expect to get a tour guide experience - you can pay an on-site guide. Admission to historical sites is also extra - and worth it. Lastly, it's hot and you will be walking a lot. Wear comfy shoes, stay hydrated and manage your energy. Older or infirmed guests may struggle in some areas so know your limits.

Good tour, friendly guide. No information en route nor at sights - The Neapolis at Siracusa was amazing. The markets and seafront lunch in Ortigia were fantastic and the baroque churches in Noto were superb.
