The beauties

of Siracusa

Whether you are visiting Siracusa for the first time or you want to spend a few days to remember, this tour is ideal for discovering the city.

We will take you through the most representative places, crossing legends, ancient temples, magical sources and wonderful churches.
We will start from the temple of Apollo, the ancient entrance to the island, and then move towards the southern part of Ortigia.
Here you will meet the Piazza Archimede and its palaces and the fountain of Diana, located in the center of it.
Continue to Piazza Duomo where you can admire the Palazzo del Senato and the Cathedral, built in Baroque style on the remains of the ruins of the temple of Athena (of which some columns are still visible).
A trip to the church of S. Lucia alla Badia is a must, guardian of the canvas painted by Caravaggio "Burial of S. Lucia".
Aren't you tired yet?
Continue towards the Fonte Aretusa, a jump to the Bellomo Museum, where, among other works, the "Annunciation" by Antonello da Messina is kept. A visit to the southern part of the island is not to be missed, where the Maniace Castle stands, a fortress from the Swabian period built at the behest of Frederick II.
Now the big End, knowing that if you want to reach the last destination you have to move yourself with public or private means: you will arrive at the magnificent Greek Theater, a small jewel handed down by the Greek civilization that settled in Syracuse.
