ITINERARIES
 

Dear guest,

     I'm glad you chose Siracusa for your holiday, an area of Sicily where you'll have the opportunity to wander about nature, culture, wines and gastronomy.

     Probably you've already thought how to spend your days in town or in the surroundings or probably you just like going around without any plan, in an absolute relaxation; in any case I would like to suggest to have a look at the guidebooks you'll find in our little library or choose a tourist guide who will bring you to one of the most interesting itineraries I'm going to propose:
