Customer Reviews
- Bessie· August 30th, 2025Our group leader, Maurizio was excellent. He was able to accommodate most of the wishes of our group by giving options whereby people could still have personal choices. He had a wonderful sense of humour, yet was able to deal with personal problems of members with compassion.Show more

Asked on July 25th, 2025Would you be able to email us the list of optional activities and what prices apply so we can see if we can maybe arrive a few days earlier and do some of the optional activities then or add them on during the tour?
- Intrepid TravelOperator•Written July 2025
We'd be happy to share a list of optional activities you may wish to join either before or during the trip. Please note that availability can vary slightly, but here's a general guide with approximate costs (in Euros): Siracusa: Castello Maniace – €5, Cathedral – €2, Archaeological Museum – €14, Neapolis Archaeological Park – €17. Monreale: Cathedral & Cloister – €13. You're more than welcome to arrive a few days early and explore these sites at your own pace, or you can choose to join the optional visits during the tour, depending on the day's schedule and your free time.
