Full description
You’ll meet the guide at the Apollo Temple at 05:00 PM to begin your 1.5-hour walking tour, just as the day is cooling down.
Admire the majesty of the Apollo Temple before heading down Via Cavour, one of the most colorful streets in Ortigia, and where locals like to spend their evenings.
See the Archimede Fountain on the way to the city’s Jewish district that was founded in the 3rd century BC.
When you reach Duomo Square, you’ll be at the heart of Ortigia. This is one of the most beautiful squares in Italy, and home to the stunning Duomo and the Church of St. Lucy.
The last stop on the tour is the Aretusa Fountain, next to the sea, and the perfect place to continue your evening out.
