We had a very knowledgeable & friendly driver called Martino who pointed out both interesting & quirky facts. All 3 places on this tour were amazing but our favourite was the Baroque town of Noto

The places are Beautiful, but this is not a guided tour our driver did not even speak English. He simply drove us and said the name of the place , and told us “he wait here.”

Our driver Joseph was great. This was a self-guided tour and was taken at our pace. It was very pleasant.

If you come from cruise, don't book from this website. They will still charge you in full, even you inform them the cruise ship cancel the docking cause of the weather conditions. Sure they 24hrs hours cancellation policy. But the cruse docking can not be sure even it is went to the last minute. This time I got inform by the captain of the cruise ship in the evening, so I contact this operator right away to cancel the next day tour. They insisted that is in 24hrs can not cancel the tour. So they just got the easy money with no any service provided! I wrote here, hope you will not get into the same situation.

We visited the area off season and booked this tour to see Siracusa, Ortigia and Noto. There was a small mistake made in the beginning with the booking information on the wrong date, but we call Catania Taxi service who ran this tour and they immediately found a driver and got us going on the tour. (About 1 hour later) however ... Rick was our driver was great and made sure we were not short changed because of their small mistake. I mentioned the mistake just to acknowledge it but it was surely made up for. We went to all three of the locations for the designated times which was about 2 hours per stop. It was a great tour but off season it should be noted that some of the sites are not fully open. We toured ruins in Siracusa and a Castle in Ortigia that were not open which was no fault of the tour. I would definitely recommend this tour and the Catania Taxi service.

Very interesting tour. Quite a bit of walking but worth it. Beautiful churches, the history and the shops. Loved it.
