Exploring Ortigia
"We had a wonderful, informative tour of Ortigia with Paola! He had great knowledge of the island and answered any of our questions. Paola was a very good tour guide!"
"My group of 9 women were very impressed by their tour with Paolo. They had time to explore Otigia/ Siracusa at a good pace. Paola - they told me, was \"our type of guide\". He gave a lot of facts and stories, yet did not talk TOO much!
A friendly and considerate guide.
My busiess looks forward to using his expertise in the future."
"Annalisa was amazing! She was very well versed in the history of the area and her expertise is archeology. She also gave us a flavor of local traditions. One of the most interesting aspects of our tour was when she took us to a small shop where papyrus is used to hand make paper. Truly facinating! Highly recommend her for your tour in Ortigia and Siracusa. "

Marvelous Mirco’s Magical Excursion
"We spent half a day with Mirco passing through the less travelled alleyways and secret corners of this wonderful city. Mirco obviously enjoys passing on his knowledge and his absolute love of all things Sicilian. His English is perfect which combined with his enthusiasm for the local history meant this was an engaging, informative addition to our stay in the city. Thank you Mirco and good luck to you and your girlfriend."
"We had a limited amount of time in Syracuse and decided to engage a guide to take us around so we could see as much as possible. Michele was very knowledgeable and explained the history of Syracuse and Ortigia, we packed a lot of sights in such a short amount of time. We highly recommend Michele, he did an amazing job. "
