Overview

This tour is a mixture of experiences: on the one hand the historical part with the guide who will talk to you about the ancient history of this village and the dominations it has endured over the years: from the Greeks to the Romans to the Arabs, all the way up to the Byzantine era and a gastronomic part where you will taste typical local products.
You'll visit the most important sites, such as the Greek Theater, Palazzo Corvaia, the Roman Theater, and the Villa Comunale "Florence Trevelyan," a large park surrounded by greenery.
During the experience you will taste Arancino with traditional ragù and Cannolo, filled with sweet ricotta cream or pistachio cream.
