From start to finish, this tour was informative and enjoyable. We had flexibility to stop for taking photos. It was an unforgettable day trip from Catania that delves into the heart of Sicily's history and beauty.
I took this tour with my son and we had an amazing time. The beauty of Ortigia was striking, with cafes overlooking the rocky coast of crystal blue waters, and the beautiful architecture. Noto was an amazingly preserved historical village that you can picture the daily life of its origins. This day trip made us want to spend more time there next time. Highly recommend!
