The first stage of the tour will be Noto, the beautiful Baroque city, full of important historic buildings all built with local stone, with a golden color tending towards pink. You will enter through Porta Reale, the gate to the city, and then continue with a walk along the main street overlooked by the cathedral of San Nicolò, whose construction began at the end of the 1600s.
You will be fascinated by the most important building in the city, Palazzo Ducezio, seat of the town hall, and by Via Nicolaci, famous all over the world for its Infiorata.
This will be followed by a visit to Portopalo di Capo Passero, a seaside village at the extreme southern tip of Sicily, which offers spectacular sea views and acts as a watershed between the Ionian Sea and the Mediterranean Sea.
Then Marzamemi awaits you: you will reach the heart of the village to relax in the square overlooked by the palace of the Prince of Villadorata, built in 1752 in sandstone.

We are two couples who took a lovely half day tour to Noto and a small vineyard for tasting at Cantina Marilina. We were picked up in a roomy, clean Fiat van very close to our Ortigia AirBnB. Marco’s perfect English was helpful explaining about local history, food and wine. He hosted us during wine tastings as well as during a visit to the oldest coffee shop in Noto for hot chocolate, granita, and coffee. We all highly recommend the tour and Marco as well. They were very easy to communicate with and very courteous.
