Day Trip from Syracuse: Ragusa Ibla & Modica with a Chocolate Tasting

Pick up Siracusa Ragusa Ibla: its historic center of Ibla offers a glimpse of Sicily that is now difficult to find. In fact walking through the streets to Piazza Duomo is like diving into the past… in a place with the an atmosphere reminiscent of "The Leopard". Admire the portal of S. Giorgio, the beautiful Iblei gardens, piazza Pola with the beautiful facade of S. Joseph and Piazza Duomo with its splendid baroque facade and the neoclassical dome of St. George. Free Lunch. In the afternoon, we visit Modica, a town that lies between two quarries on the bed of a river, buried in the last century. This Baroque pearl is known not only for its architecture, but also for having given birth to Salvatore Quasimodo, Nobel laureate for Poetry. The most interesting monuments are the churches of St. George, St. Peter and Mary of Bethlem. Sample the famous chocolate and local products (mpanatigghie sweets). Drop off Siracusa
