Our experience on this tour was fantastic. MARTINO picked us up at our hotel at the appointed time and our journey began in Noto. MARTINO explained the history of Noto walked with us and pointed out places of interest explaining the architecture. He walked with us a little further to point out another church and then agreed to meet in an hour where he dropped us off. Our next stop was the archeological park in Siracusa. Again, MARTINO explained everything to us walked us to the entrance and made sure we knew where to purchase the tickets. The archaeological park is beautiful and it it is well planned with explanations in English. We spent under 2 hours walking the site and thoroughly enjoyed the beauty and serenity of the park. We met with MARTINO again and then he took us into Ortigia. He suggested sites and areas to have lunch. Ortigia is very pretty and we decided on a cafe across from the Cathedral. We ordered pizza which was delicious. If you decide to take this tour and you can request a driver and guide it should be MARTINO. He was excellent and made this tour very personal for us. He is professional, friendly , knowledgeable and a very safe driver. We enjoyed the entire day and feel so much of our wonderful experience was because of MARTINO.
