Although very small, Ortigia preserves all the history of the Mediterranean. It is a place where small adventures take you through the adventurous events of Sicily and beyond.
Traveling accompanied by an archaeologist will make this experience exciting and particularly rich.

Great tour. He did an amazing job telling the story of Ortigia. Well worth the money. He showed us so many things we would have never see. Thank you.

Today we had a 3 hour tour of Ortigia with Italo. It was a fabulous tour and Italo was an excellent guide. He is very very knowledgeable of the area and it’s history. He was able to answer all questions we asked. He was on time and found us with ease at the designated location. I only wish we had booked him for more tours to other towns while we are here.

Italo is a terrific guide. We spent two days with him. He took us around Ortigia, focusing on Jewish history. We also went with him and a driver to Modica, Noto and Ispica. During both tours we saw and experienced things we would never have done on our own. Italo is expert in his field … informed, engaging, funny and a pleasure to learn from. He also knows the best places for granite, arancini and cannoli. Thank you Italo for two amazing days!

This was an excellent tour of Ortigia’s historic neighborhoods and architecture. In particular Italo helped bring the back lanes of Ortigia to life. We also discussed in depth certain sites like the Temple of Apollo and especially the cathedral. (Make sure to ask about St. Lucia’s eyes.) On our tour with a small number of people we were also able to take a mini-break with some delicious granita. Overall we really enjoyed it.
