Join this guided tour at the hand of a licensed professional tour guide. Journey to discover the most beautiful corners of the European capital of Baroque.Tradition, culture, and history reveal the secrets of one of the most beautiful Sicilian towns. You will also visit an interesting Roman Villa.
First we visit the recently opened Roman villa of Tellaro, a unique example of a museum that houses a Roman villa with some very prestigious mosaics. Then we travel to Noto, the European capital of the Baroque and Unesco Patrimony since 2002. It's one of the most beautiful cities of Sicilian art, as a splendid historical center where you can admire many civil and religious monuments. See Santa Chiara, SS, Salvatore, Cathedral S. Nicolo, Ducezio Palace, Nicolaci Street with its amazing balconies, Nicolaci Palace, Church of Montevergini, Church of San Domenico, Fontana d'Ercole and the Communal Theatre. There will be free time for shopping in the main street. A must-experience is a tasting of the Sicilian pastry dessert, cannolo (literally meaning 'little tube') or the semi-frozen dessert Granita, made of sugar, water and flavourings, both originally from Sicily.
