Paolo was very knowledgeable, explained things clearly and allowed our group to understand and appreciate the history and culture of Ragusa and Sicily! I highly recommend.

Paolo gave a fabulous tour! His English was excellent, and he was full of information. He made the tour fun and enjoyable for our mixed group of travelers in our fifties and early twenties. We will look for Paolo if we are ever in Sicily again, and we will eagerly refer him to any of our traveling friends. We had a few logistical and timing issues to work around, and Paolo was fantastic to accommodate us. Thanks again to Paola for an unforgettable experience.

My husband and I were lucky enough to have a private tour with Emilia. We were very happy the tour wasn’t cancelled due to the small group size. Emelia’s expertise in the art and history of Ragusa Ibla was impressive. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and highly recommend this tour!

Our guide was wonderful. She was extremely knowledgeable about all of the local Baroque sites and history, and was an excellent storyteller. She also stressed the importance of the immigration experience on both Ragusa and Sicily generally, and stressing how it helped create the rich, local culture. The city is beautiful, and we hit all the major spots we intended to on this tour. Our guide even got us into a Michelin-starred restaurant for lunch last minute! She certainly went above and beyond.

This tour was perfect to get information on the town that one could never get just walking around without a guide. Although it could have been a small group tour it was just my husband and I so we had the guide all to ourselves. We saw all of the highlights of the beautiful town and she described everything in detail. We wrapped up on time (which was appreciated b/c it was HOT!!) Very reasonable price too!

<p>We were the only 2 on this tour so had Nicolette to ourselves - she helped us with parking prior to tour , which was invaualable as parking in Ragussa ibla is difficult .<br/> We started and made our way to the gardens and then the piazza - the buildings within this town are wonderful, so picturesque .<br/> Definitely recomended</p>

Sono salita a piedi, di notte a Ragusa Ibla. Sono oltre 300 gradini ma con scorci unici. Consiglio di salire all'imbrunire a piedi , cenare in uno dei locali tipici e ridiscendere sempre a piedi
