Overview

You can visit Sicily's two most distinctive Baroque cities in a single day. Their architecture is characterized by the local white stone in Syracuse and the pink stone in Noto.
You'll visit Syracuse's historic center: Ortigia. A panoramic walk will take you past the city's iconic sites, culminating in its Cathedral: the old Temple of Apollo and the magnificent Baroque square in which it stands.
You will learn in depth about the Greek origins of the city of Syracuse and the testimonies that have survived to this day: the Neapolis Archaeological Park. Accompanied by the guide you will visit the Greek Theatre, the Latomia del Paradiso, the Ear of Dionysius and the Roman Amphitheatre.
You will return to the starting point in the late afternoon, tired but with eyes full of wonder.
