We had chef Mariarita and had a great time cooking in her beautiful home overlooking the Neapolis Archeological Park. We made homemade cavatelli, swordfish, salad, and tiramisu. Everything was perfect - highly recommended.

The 2 visit package is a very efficient way to see the 2 main attractions. Both are really worth the visits. We used the local bus from the Archaeological Park to transfer to Ortigia for part two. After that we then had the rest of the day to explore on our own.

Enza was a great tour guide. Very knowledgeable and attentive. Our tour was in English and Italian and she had great information in both languages. We would highly recommend Enza as a guide!

Our guide was basic; the group was 1/2 in Italian and 1/2 in English (contrary to being advertised as an ENGLISH Tour) which meant that lots of the information given in one language was not always repeated in English. It was a struggle to hear what was being said in English as the guide spoke very softly and kept turning her head in different directions. audio headset would have greatly improved the experience. Questions from some of the English visitors were left unanswered, which was not the case with to the other group. Frustrating, feeling that the tour was misrepresented as being IN ENGLISH.

It’s a lovely intimate theatre that showcases traditional Marionette Puppetry. The Marionettes are 4-5 ft tall. The dialogue is in Italian but before the show starts, the plot is explained in English. The show is 45 mins with no intermission- a little long considering you can’t really follow the dialogue- so I wouldn’t recommend it for young children. If you hang onto your theatre ticket, you can go into the Puppet Museum- about a 5 min walk down the road- for 1 Euro to see the history of this art form. I’d suggest that instead of the “ behind the scenes” option.

This trip was SPECTACULAR from start to finish. ETTORE, our chef and guide escorted us on a leisurely stroll through the market educating us on the importance of fresh and local ingredients for our subsequent meal. We tasted fresh oyster, capers, prickly fruit, limoncello, virtually anything we wanted, purchasing all the ingredients for our meal as we moved along. As a group of 8, we settled on a meal of caponata with both fish and meatballs. At Ettore’s suggestion, we also chose pistachio pesto with spaghetti. The cooking demonstration took place at an exquisite Oceanside restaurant where we soaked in the expertise of an experienced and local chef, juxtaposed with city and ocean views. The meal was replete with Prosecco and bountiful local vino rosso. Plan on a 5 hour experience but every minute full of a multi-sensory experience. Bravo!

Our guide, Rossana was wonderful and we really loved our private tour which felt like a leisurely walk amongst the temples. She communicated fluently in English and answered all of our numerous questions on the temples, Sicily history and culture.

We shopped at the market and then were taxi to the restaurant where we prepared the recipes, enjoyed local wines, and ate together. Very memorable time!

The tour began on time and took the thirty or so people that comprised our group to what our guide said was about 40% of the park’s sites. He was quite knowledgeable but his English was so heavily accented and he spoke so fast that a number of people just gave up and stopped wearing the earbuds. (I usually do pretty well with cutting through accents; not this time.) As an ironic side note, the listening devices worked really well! Also, it is billed as a two-hour tour (cue the theme music to Gilligan’s Island). But because there were two Italian-language-only people on the tour, the guide had to say everything in both languages. Result: a three-hour tour. Just be aware. Ends with a 20 minute on your own walk back to the starting point.

We had a fantastic show and backstage tour of the traditional Sicilian Puppet Theater. It was such a unique and wonderful experience! The show was in Italian, but the host described to us the story in English so that we would have an idea of what was going on. Even though we didn't understand the language, there was still a lot to take in and appreciate during the 1 hour show. We were amazed at how well the actors moved the puppets and how detailed everything was. And even with the language barrier, we still enjoyed every minute. After the show, the actors showed us backstage to see how the puppets are made and controlled, and told us more of the history behind the Pupper Theater. This was a really amazing and unique experience - highly recommend!

As a son of a sicilian immigrant and being introduced to them at an early age by my grandfather on lower east side of manhattan, in little italy at the italian feasts this was a wonderful treat to watch a performance that was put on by passionate professionals

The behind the scene tour that we took prior to the show was amazing. The young puppeteer was so enthusiastic and really did a great job explaining everything. He spoke English very well.

Our guide Mario was first rate. Knowledgeable and he pitched the information at the right level throughout. We had 27 in our group which was a nice number. The audio equipment worked well. Plenty of opportunities for photos without disruption to the flow of the visit. Excellent value.

Impossible to find the car park as the signage is invisible. Even after some directions from a local ang using Google maps The tour meeting point needs amending
