Embark on a 2-hour walking tour of the UNESCO Heritage site - a Baroque town of Noto. Completely destroyed by the terrible 1693 earthquake, it was rebuilt from scratch on a new site, about 10km from the old centre. Noto is an example of subliminal expression of originality, fantasy, obsession and man’s resilience in the face of the overwhelming force of nature.

Half Day Tour to Noto

13-15 May

The 43rd edition of the famous flower festival, will most likely take place on the weekend of May 13-15, 2022, in Via Corrado Nicolaci, in Noto.

Infiorata Festivals

Ragusa was almost destroyed in an earthquake in 1693 and was subsequently rebuilt and divided into two parts Ragusa Ibla (lower town) and Superiore (upper town). From the upper town, located on a hill, you can observe the whole UNESCO-listed Baroque town. 

Together with your guide, you visit the Cathedral San Giovanni Battista designed by local architects in the 18th century and the Santa Maria delle Scale church which has also been damaged in the earthquake, though the entrance and the four Gothic chapels resemble the original building. 

After you head to Modica - a town of 100 churches. Besides marvelous architecture, this town is famous for its Cioccolato di Modica production. The chocolate making tradition counts more than 400 years.

Half Day Guided Trip to Ragusa and Modica

In about 1 hour after your departure from Agrigento, have a stop at Villa Romana del Casale -  a UNESCO Site especially noteworthy for the richness and quality of the mosaics. Together with a local guide you discover this unique historic site.
