What you can expect

The guided tour of Ortigia, with our local guide, begins at the Temple of Apollo, the oldest Greek temple in the entire Western world.

You will continue your visit in the direction of Piazza Archimede, where you can admire the splendor of the Fountain of Diana, linked to the myth of the nymph Arethusa, who is depicted here with the Greek goddess Artemis at the most important moment when she transforms her into a fountain.

You will then arrive in Piazza Duomo, one of the most beautiful squares in Italy, the place where the founders of the city from Corinth settled. Here you will be able to visit the majestic Cathedral.

You will conclude the Tour by arriving at the enchanting Fountain Arethusa, a freshwater spring a few meters from the sea and linked to the love story between Arethusa and Alphaeus.
