Your Journey into the Heart of Sicilian Baroque
The Heart of the Baroque: Noto, Modica and Ragusa Ibla with a Private Chauffeur
Enjoy an exclusive experience in the Val di Noto, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2005. Accompanied by your private guide-driver, who is fluent in English, you will discover the soul of authentic Sicily in complete relaxation, in a modern, air-conditioned vehicle, departing directly from your accommodation in Catania, Taormina, or from the seaport.
The Tour's Highlights:
Noto, the “Garden of Stone”: Stroll along Corso Vittorio Emanuele and be enchanted by the city's gilded Baroque architecture. The tour includes admission to the city's most prestigious treasures: Palazzo Nicolaci, with its iconic balconies; Palazzo Ducezio, with its Hall of Mirrors and panoramic terrace; and the elegant Teatro Tina Di Lorenzo.
Modica and the “Black Gold” of Sabadì: Explore the city, which looks like a nativity scene carved into the rock. A premium tasting experience awaits you at the Sabadì confectionery, located next to St. George's Cathedral, where you will sample over 30 types of Modica chocolate. After your walk, we will drive you to the most spectacular viewpoints for unforgettable photos.
Ragusa Ibla and the Hyblaean Gardens: Lose yourself in the medieval alleys and along Corso XXV Aprile. We will visit the Duomo di San Giorgio, where you can admire the relics of St. John the Baptist, and we will conclude with a refreshing stroll through the paths of the beautiful Hyblaean Gardens.
Traditional Flavours: If you'd like to stop for a typical lunch, we'll recommend the most authentic restaurants where you can sample the true local cuisine.
