Highlights
Let's explore and rediscover Ragusa, Modica and Scicli. The tour follows an itinerary which includes history, art, faith and culture. We invite you to spend one day visiting the greatest laboratory of Baroque urban development and its surroundings. Hundreds of churches scattered around, impressive basilicas, half-hidden small churches in crowded alleys, buildings with unusual architectural solutions, portals, stories about the ancient noble families, represent the precious heritage of the greatest flowering of Sicilian Baroque art, which makes these places, their atmosphere and their landscape really unique.
