Perfect trip! - We had the best tour guide. I learned so much about Sicily and their culture. Highly recommend. I hope you try this tour to get a small town feel and away from the big city.

Great Day Trip - We booked this trip having already visited Siracusa, but not the archeological site or Noto. Picked up promptly by our guide Christian we traveled to visit Neapolis . I have to say this was the highlight of the day. The entry costs are €15 per person and not included as part of the tour. Well worth the money. The Greek caves, amphitheater and the Ear of Dionysus were absolutely amazing. The Roman side not so much with just the amphitheater available to view. The time at the site was 1-30 hrs . More than enough time to see everything. We then headed into Ortigia . It’s a beautiful town which although we had seen it before were more than happy to revisit. Christian was very informative regarding all the important sites we visited & we had free time to explore ourselves. Lunch was our next port of call. Average food and some wine and water. No complaints. Then to Noto. It’s a very beautiful place but basically has one Main Street on which all notable places of interest are situated. The town is very pretty & worth a visit . Not a go back again for me personally. We then returned to Catania. A thoroughly enjoyable day with a lovely knowledgeable guide . This is a definite recommend!

Beautiful cities and buildings - I loved all of the beautiful sights we saw along the tour and the tour guide was also very friendly and told us a lot about sicilian history. One minus point was that we werent told that we had to buy museum tickets for ourselves in syracusa. But the rest was very beautiful and we enjoyed ourselves.

Recommend - We were only 3 people in the group plus our driver, Angelo. I liked him very much, he was very knowledgeable and respectfull, also a very good driver who brought us back in safety to Catania. He had cold water in the van so we could refill our bottles. He was with us all along the way talking about the history of his land. This was my second tour with him and I was very pleased, he greeted me so kindly. The lunch we had was delicious and enough (a selection of different kind of meals from which you could choose) and included in the price. Noto it is just mesmerezing! I definitely recommend this tour!

Great experience - Danilo was honestly the best tour guide, so friendly and filled with knowledge about the area!!! I was with my oldest daughter but I would love to bring family back to have a tour with Danilo! Every stop was breathtaking, it was spread out perfect I had anxiety with that but it was wonderful there was time for sight seeing and a mix of walking as a group at certain times. The van has AC and there was plenty of room for our party of 6. The lunch included was perfect and it was just an absolutely perfect trip! Thank you for a wonderful experience! The one thing I will mention is that we had booked with my grandmother, who is in a wheel chair and the van was too high for her to comfortably enter in and out all day so she stayed back. When we arrived to the Greek theatre I am so glad we did not attempt to bring her wheelchair. The hills were very high and there is no way we could have pushed her. I would update that this is not a wheelchair accessible tour. Regardless I would absolutely recommend this tour to most people that are able to walk a couple miles up and down hills comfortably.

Day trip to Syracuse, Ortygia and Noto from Catania - It was a lovely day, and our guide was so pleasant and informative. I highly recommend this tour. He gave us a lot of extra information and we had a tasty lunch too with wine!

Beautiful! - Syracuse/Ortigia/Noto excursion Dario the Guide very prepared and helpful nice, travel comfortable enough however always some small problem with air conditioning.Prqnzo and company right. Recommendation;transfer means such as some more comfortable and equipped tours for those traveling and using these tours also seen the costs I understand optimize expenses but on vacation the experience must also be relaxing otherwise it becomes an FIA FROM YOU! Anyway DARIO perfect as Guide/Driver!! Luca end Family Emilia-Romagna

Highly recommended! - We had a wonderful day and all three places are well worth a visit. It was a shame the Greek Theatre was not open in Syracuse (restoration) but the rest of the site has statues and bronzes dotted throughout adding to its rich heritage. Ortygia is very pretty with lots to visit and stunning views of crystal waters. Lunch was provided and we could choose from a selection of local dishes washed down with local wine. Our final stop Noto was stunning and most places of interest are along or just off the main street. Our guide Giancarlo was very friendly and allowed us to adjust our stop times as it was sooo hot and provided us with extra cold water which was much appreciated! Thanks again 😊

Beautiful places - The guide was very nice and quite knowledgeable. I would have liked to spend more time at Syracuse and Noto and lunch was okay. I understand the time limitations, but we could have gone to a better place to eat, I’m sure this has nothing to do with the driver.

Good transfer service, but a bit pricey - Overall good, but a bit expensive for what you get (read below for full details). This is essentially a transfer service which you share with others. We had 6 other people with us (8 total + driver), and because the mini van wasn't very big, it was a little tight (nothing too bad, but it wasn't spacious). Your driver is not a guide, he will only give you a leaflet and will point out the entrance to attractions, he will then meet you back at a certain time and you will leave for the next destination. Our driver Antonio was great and bent over and backwards to make sure we were happy and satisfied. He cracked jokes and was generally a safe driver (by Italian standards!). Pick up from Catania wasn't rushed, which means we didn't get to the first stop until after 11am. Because of this, there was a lot of traffic. The Archaeological Park in Siracuse is very expensive and tickets are not included (16.5 euro per person). You have the option of waiting until everyone is done exploring (which I would recommend, it is so not worth it). Around 1pm Antonio took us to Ortigia in the van, so that he could point out the various spots of interest. The streets were narrow, there were lots of pedestrians, so this took a really long time. We had to fully embrace the "no rush" mentality of Italians, otherwise we would be so frustrated at how inefficiently we were using our time (driving slowly through Ortigia, instead of walking through it...). And then we turned around and went back to where we came from to have lunch. That took almost an hour... but remember, like the Italians, you are not in a rush... The lunch was great! It was in a little bakery and you could pick whatever you wanted to eat - pizza, arancini, baked aubergines, potatoes, mozarella sticks etc. (you could take ALL of this, not 1 of these things). The dish is warmed up for you and although it's not the best food you will eat in Italy it was plentiful, hot, kept us full until the evening and it was included in the price! We even got some wine to go with the lunch - amazing! Again Antonio went above and beyond. We got some coffee and a dessert and I was too full to even walk out of there ;) We then had 2h in Ortigia which didn't feel like enough time, it's such a beautiful place. Wish we had 3h to walk around instead of that drive through... but we really enjoyed our time there. We met with Antonio after our 2h were up, and we were off to Noto. We arrived around 6pm in Noto and had an hour to walk around. It's a small little town but quite cute and we enjoyed a granita on the steps. It was a relaxing end to our trip. Antonio mentioned that in the summer he changes the order of the activities so that you visit the Archaeological Park last, as it gets really hot during the day. We then got back to Catania around 8:30pm. We had to move our dinner reservation as we expected to get back much earlier, but again, Antonio was an angel and helped us with that. He was 10/10. To sum up: this is a transfer service with lunch included, no guide and no tickets to the Archaeological Park included. Give the Arch. Park a miss, it's not worth your time and money. Lunch was fab, Ortigia was fab, Noto was good, the driver Antonio was fabulous, this is a no rush trip so don't expect efficient use of time - you're on holiday!
