Great time. Adapted to our needs. Always helpful and there to do anything we asked. Really friendly and knew the best place for coffee too.
We booked this tour last minute and feel so lucky that we did! We were a family of four with two young children. Marco was our driver and was super patient, understanding and considerate. We signed up for a 3 hour tour but since we took more time (due to young children) we extended by an extra hour for an additional fee, which was worthwhile. We felt that this is the best and only way to see Siracusa and Ortygia. We made multiple stops along the way and saw various sights that we would not have done so on our own. The archaeological park was a highlight and we spent an hour there. Marco explained the sights well and also supplemented with Google translate explanations over a speaker. He played some Italian music at appropriate moments which our family enjoyed. He took many group photos for us which were priceless and memorable. We highly recommend this tour as the perfect way to see Siracusa and Ortygia in one day! :)
Nice way to get around Syracuse, the guide gave explanations in Italian and had it translated into Dutch. Nice little extra
We were 8 people - booked 3 tuk tuks - very professional and easy to book and on time. It was a great way to see a large portion of town in a sort period of time. I loved having time at the Archelogical Park. The narration during the tour is in Italian but with a speaker that translates to English. Highly recommend
We had an amazing experience touring Siracusa and Ortigia with our driver and guide, Francesco. He was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. You could truly feel how proud he is of his city, and that passion made us appreciate and love it even more. Francesco was very prepared and accommodating to our group throughout the day. He taught us so much about the history, culture, and local life — far more than we expected to learn. The tour was both informative and enjoyable, and we had a wonderful time from start to finish. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area. Thank you, Francesco, for such a memorable experience!
This was the best way to see Ortigia. And our guide was so informative. Stopped and waited for us at sights and made sure we didn’t miss anything
We had a great time in the Tuk Tuk! Our guide was very so nice, very knowledgeable, and the tour was in perfect english so no issue with understanding the history. Siracusa is a very walkable city but we saved so much time zooming around in the car. Besides seeing the sights, it gave us a good foundation of the city that has helped us navigate it afterwards.
Massimo was friendly & accommodating. While he spoke very little English, he communicated well with the translation app & was able to provide pre-recorded information on all of the historical sites. On top of that, his tuk tuk was the best looking of any that we saw!
What a fun, easy and informative way to get around to key sights in the old city of Ortigia, the new city of Syracuse and to get to the Archaeological Park. Our driver was keen to make sure we had a great experience. He spoke in Italian for his information and his audio system instantly translated into English. The tuk tuk went down some narrow alleys and on other streets. We stopped for 10 minutes in a few spots plus for 1 hour at the beautiful ruins.
Did a 3hr tour, was well worth doing, our guide Francesco was very friendly, very knowledgeable, explained everything as we past by, plenty of stops for closer look at things along the way, more padding in the seats would be good, all up, it was a great experience
