Paolo gave us a great time in Syracusa
James_P
, May 2022
Paolo gave us a great time in Syracusa. He picked us up at our hotel in his car and first took us to the archeological park where there are Greek and Roman ruins. As we walked thru the park Paolo regaled us with history and lore. He was very knowledgeable. After the park he drove back to Ortigia, found a parking spot and then gave us a great walking tour of the island. With each street he would point out fabulous historical details about the buildings and cultures of the past. We walked all the way to the lower tip where the natural spring emerges and the castle was built. He then took us to a nice sidewalk cafe where he had arranged a great lunch. He left us to indulge in great Sicilian wine and food.
It has to be better

Our tour guide Biagio unfortunately was not good. He is a lovely very nice gentleman and I’m sorry to be providing this feedback but this tour was very demanding physically and he was not in the best shape for it. He went way too slow and we missed seeing key landmarks because of that. He didn’t give us much information, most of the time it was a quiet stroll and he had no answers for questions we asked. It may have been a language barrier or lack of knowledge. He did tell us a lot about the plants (which we were not interested in). Way too much money for the lack of education we felt by the end. The ristorante that was part of this tour was outstanding though.
Amazing

A fantastic tour of Syracuse & Ortigia with a great guide

Paulo gave us a great tour of Syracuse's Archeological Park and then Ortigia. He is very knowledgeable and personable so it was a pleasure for us to spend the morning with him. After his tour, we had a much better understanding of the history and cultural richness of Syracuse and Ortigia. To finish the tour, he dropped us off at a bistro in the market where he had arranged for a delicious lunch. We definitely recommend taking this tour with Paulo!
Our tour guide, Marco, seems to love...

Our tour guide, Marco, seems to love history and giving tours of his beautiful and historic city of Siracusa. It was a very informative tour, and he happily answered all of our many questions. We spent a lot of time in the Archaeological Park which was amazing and we opted to do the food and wine tasting at the end which we also enjoyed. I highly recommend this tour.
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.

Sorting, ranking, and search results
Viator wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That’s why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.
On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You’ll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.
You’ll see some experiences with a “Promoted” badge, which means that the operators of those experiences have agreed to pay Viator more to have their experience highlighted.
If you see an Experience Award Winner label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Viator over a 12-month period.
The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We’re always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
