• Castello di Donnafugata - Our journey begins at the “Castello di Donnafugata,” depicted as the residence of local boss Don Balduccio Sinagra in the series.
• La Casa del Commissario Montalbano - Next, we head to Punta Secca (known as Marinella in the series) to view Montalbano’s house from the outside and the nearby sandy beach where he swims.
• Donnalucata - We then proceed to Donnalucata, the primary setting for the episode “The Shape of Water.” The promenade of Donnalucata, referred to as Marinella in the series, serves as the main backdrop for this episode and is featured in many other episodes of The Inspector Montalbano.
• Centro storico di Scicli - World Heritage Site - Our next stop is the baroque village of Scicli. Here, we take a short walk to explore the stunning baroque historical center (known as Montelusa in the series), including “Palazzo Comunale” (the City Hall), which serves as Vigata’s police station in the series, and “Palazzo Iacono,” the police headquarters.
• Antica Dolceria Bonajuto - We continue to Modica, whose historical center is also in Baroque style. The beautiful staircase of Saint George’s Cathedral was featured in the episode “Tocco d’artista.” The town’s scenic views, baroque churches and palaces, and charming alleys provide the backdrop for many other scenes in the series. A must-visit at the end of the tour is the Antica Cioccolateria Bonajuto, where you can taste the famous and delicious Modica Chocolate in its various flavors.
• Ragusa Ibla - Our final stop is the stunning Piazza Duomo of Ragusa Ibla, with its baroque Church of San Giorgio, representing the main square of Vigata, the fictional village of Montalbano.

The view of Ibla with the illuminated dome of the Cathedral appears behind Montalbano in the episode “A Blade of Light,” when the Commissioner, as a guest of Vigata Rete Libera, gives an interview.

The Cathedral of San Giorgio and the square of Ragusa Ibla are featured in many episodes of the TV series. Whenever the Commissioner stops in the central square or the Church of Madre di Vigata, we admire the superb baroque style of Ragusa Ibla, its square, and the Duomo.

The church of Santa Maria delle Scale, the staircase, and the magnificent panorama of Ragusa Ibla serve as the backdrop to a mugging scene in the episode “Gatto e Cardellino.”

The Circolo di Conversazione, overlooking Piazza Duomo, is where Montalbano often interrupts Dr. Pasquano’s card games. Many scenes are filmed inside and outside the Circle. In the episode “La Luna di Carta,” the Commissioner enters the smoky rooms of the Club, filled with Vigata’s notables and wealthy individuals playing cards, and meets the annoyed Pasquano, who responds to Montalbano’s questions with fake courtesy and ironic jokes.

The Giardino Ibleo is located near the restaurant Da Calogero. In Vigata, the municipal garden becomes an elegant nursing home where Montalbano visits in the episode “La Luna di Carta.” In the tree-lined garden paths, the Commissioner meets an old thief who shows him a key, asking what it might open.
