Book now your walking tour of Ortygia, the charming historical centre of Siracusa
Ortigia is a small island joined to the mainland by a couple of bridges.
During my Ortygia’s Highlights Private Tour, I’ll show you all the most important cultural sights on the island of Ortygia: the Temple of Apollo (a greek temple of the VI century BC), the Duomo Square with its baroque palaces, the Cathedral/Temple of Athena and the charming Arethusa’s Spring.
On request, is possible to arrange exclusive tastings of typical Sicilian food, like Modica’s chocolate, cheeses and charcuterie, at the Local Market or shops in Ortygia.
Is possible to arrange also a light lunch, together or separated, at the Local Market (“Fratelli Burgio“), with Sicilian salads, cheeses and cold cuts mixed with caponata, olives, sun dried tomatoes and other traditional food.
