Booked tour through Prestelli with Corrado Carpona. It was our third day through Prestelli and every day was terrific. Corrado was prompt, pleasant, and very informative! Considerate of our restroom and walking needs as an older couple, he set a very manageable pace that covered the areas so well. He even arranged to dodge the intermittent rain!

Great guide! Very friendly and educated. Learned so much about Neapolis in Syracusa! Great for any type of group. Very engaging with kids as well.

This tour is a MUST when visiting Siracusa. It is critical to understanding the ancient Greek and Roman settlements, as well as subsequent cultures that came after them. This area is certainly worthy of being named a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

This tour is a MUST when visiting Siracusa. We advise booking it for the first day of your visit in order to understand the ancient history of the city. Touring with Biagio was like earning a Master’s degree in history. We learned so much about Greek and Roman settlements and the subsequent cultures who conquered the area. This archaeological park is an amazing UNESCO World Heritage site that should not be missed on a visit to Sicily.

Biagio was an excellent and charming guide. The Neapolis is a fascinating site - definitely worth a visit.

My husband and I are from Australia wanted to visit these ancient ruins and we're delighted with this guided tour. Our guide, Biagio,collected us from our hotel on Oetigia and drive us to the Park (and back afterwards). Biagio was charming with excellent English who was brimming with information about the Archaeological ruins as well as the history of Syracusa. His was of testing Dionysius' Ear was fantastic!

<p>truly great guide...Marco was just the best - so knowledgeable...and when Viator had to cancel our walking tour of Ortega the following day Marco stepped in and that was truly great too...and on the third day Marco took us to Noto - Marco just knows Syracuse and the surrounding area so well...if you are ever in Syracuse you must find Marco!</p>

<p>Marco was charming and knowledgeable. It really is worth having a guide to add colour and detail for a visit to the park. It is much better than having your nose in a book. Marco told stories, legends, battles as well as highlighting flora. I noticed other visitors listening in! The tour lasts 2h.</p>

L’oreille de Dionisos, le théâtre grec et l’amphithéâtre romain sont impressionnants. Le quide parle très bien français et ajoute des commentaires culinaires en lien avec des plantes qui poussent dans le parc
