Activity itinerary

Piazza Archimede

We will start from Archimedes Square, in front of the beautiful Diana Fountain, which represents the goddess of hunting and was considered the city's protector by the Greeks. From here, we will venture out to explore the island, seeking new flavors and aromas, immersing ourselves as locals rather than tourists.

Via Roma

We will then proceed along Via Roma, one of the most charming and beautiful streets on the island of Ortigia. We'll sample the coffee that us locals enjoy here. Naturally, as true Italians, we start the day with coffee. However, for those who don't drink it, there will be an alternative option available.

Via della Giudecca

Next, we will explore the fantastic Giudecca neighborhood, my personal favorite. Amidst former synagogues and a few hidden gems, I'll share tales of the recipes introduced by the Arabs in this area. I'll delve into the history of the arancino, one of Sicily's symbols, and we'll indulge in various versions of this dish.

Via Tommaso Gargallo

We'll then venture into the non-touristy part of the island, a place brimming with stories and secrets that often go unnoticed by those unfamiliar. I'll share anecdotes and tales about our symbols and culinary culture. We'll navigate through the island and its intricate pathways, leading us to the local market.

Mercato Di Siracusa

Finally, we'll reach the Ortigia market, a magical place brimming with ancient flavors, vibrant colors, people, and culture. We'll sample various offerings from different vendors, tasting the local specialties such as "pomodoro alla siracusana" (Syracuse-style tomatoes), cheese, salami, local olive oil, ricotta, and almond pastries.

Admission ticket included

Later, we'll experience the delights of a traditional dairy farm, the most enchanting spot in Ortigia, where you'll savor cheeses and the most delectable panino you've ever tasted. Trust me on this one.

Via Trento

We'll wrap up the tour with something sweet and refreshing. We'll indulge in the traditional granita and, of course, the Sicilian cannolo at one of the island's most traditional and tasty gelato makers.
