Unique in its kind at a more than competitive price - This morning we had a wonderful tour with “Dolci Escursioni” accompanied DA Laura. Detailed explanations in both Italian and English. Beautiful landscapes and views, souvenir group photos and a nice swim in the crystal clear waters. Really HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!! I would have done the whole round again right away

Ortigia and caves - Guia Steve muito simpático. Very nice tour with a lot of Italian. We've seen the entire coast of Ortigia and some of Siracusa. We saw some monuments and went inside some caves. There was still time for a bath in high sea. We love it!
