In Syrakus wird die Vergangenheit lebendig - eine Stadt, die sowohl ein klassisches Erbe als auch eine extravagante sizilianische Barockarchitektur zu bieten hat. Sie besuchen das griechische Theater, gehen in das Ohr des Dionysius und erkunden die Insel Ortygia, das Herz der Altstadt, wo sich barocke Schmuckstücke wie die Kathedrale befinden. Dino, einer unserer ortskundigen Führer, sagt: „Der Sinn dieser Tour ist es, Ihnen an einem Tag den besten Überblick über die Geschichte und Kultur von Syrakus zu geben. Am Ende der Tour werden Sie die Stadt und ihr Erbe in- und auswendig kennen.“
Syrakus ist mit seiner mehr als 2.700 Jahre alten Geschichte eine der faszinierendsten Städte Siziliens. Ihre Reise durch die Zeit beginnt im Archäologischen Park im Westen der Stadt. Entdecken Sie das Griechische Theater, das in seiner Blütezeit 15.000 Zuschauer fasste und trotz des Zahns der Zeit immer noch beeindruckt. Außerdem gibt es den Altar des Hieron – eine riesige Opferplatte –, das Ohr des Dionysius sowie das römische Amphitheater zu sehen.
Anschließend überqueren Sie die Brücke zur Insel Ortygia. Im Gassenlabyrinth gibt es Kirchen, Paläste und Burgen zu entdecken. Bei einer geführten Tour lernen Sie die wichtigsten Sehenswürdigkeiten kennen, darunter auch die Kathedrale. Anschließend haben Sie ein paar Stunden Zeit, um die Insel auf eigene Faust zu erkunden.

Sicily tour with Randazzo Market and wine-tasting by Mount Etna
With the popularity of TV shows like White Lotus, Sicily has upped the ante as a must-see destination for set-jetters – that's people inspired by TV and film set locations to me and you. You'll find plenty of sights to capture for yourself on this full-day tour that takes in the town of Randazzo, just north of Mount Etna, and a winery where you'll get to taste the fruits of the volcanic landscape. Francesca, a local guide, says “I love the start of this tour, as we drive through one of Sicily's best kept secrets – the Alcantara Valley. You'll see hillside villages, gorges and the mountainous panoramas that Sicily is famed for.”The bustling town of Randazzo is your first stop, sitting on the north-west fringe of Etna National Park. It's one of the only towns to remain untouched by Etna's historic eruptions, so a lot of the classic Sicilian architecture of the churches and houses is still in its original form. Every Sunday is about one thing here – the local market, which you'll get free time to explore. Seek out regional specialities here, like sweet cannoli and local olives and mushrooms, or snack on arancini rice balls as your browse delicate ceramics on the stalls. Round off your experience with a trip to a top-tier vineyard for a tasting session on the slopes of Mount Etna.

Mount Etna guided sunset tour with Sicilian dinner
Watching the sky light up with shades of orange and then burn out into darkness while standing atop a volcano is a special sensation. This drama-rich tour takes you to Mount Etna – a must-visit when in Sicily. You'll head to an altitude of almost 3,000 metres to catch the sunset and then relax over a traditional meal to round off your adventure. You'll go by minibus to Etna, then, as the terrain becomes rockier, you'll switch to a 4x4 vehicle. As you make your way to 2,900m above sea level – the highest point that's safely reachable – there'll be stops to take in the harsh, lunar landscape and the lava-smothered flanks of this towering mountain. Make sure you're wearing comfortable walking shoes and warm layers – it gets cold at high altitude. After admiring the views from near the summit, an expert alpine guide will take you to a less exposed 2,500m, where you'll watch the sunset in a more comfortable location. Then on the way back, you'll stop at a chalet restaurant for a typical Sicilian dinner.
