Among the main attractions we will see the Saint Georges’s Church, Saint Peter’s Church, Mary Of Bethlehem’s Church and a small cave church which houses some Byzantine frescos.
We won't miss the chance of stopping by for some chocolate tasting and we will also try the "mpanatigghie" which consist of thin dough raviolo filled with cocoa, cinnamon, nutmeg and minced pork or beef.
The second stop of the day will be Ragusa Ibla. The city will be revealed to us during the visit of the beautiful iblei gardens, the San Giorgio portal, St. Joseph's Church, Piazza Pola and the Cathedral, considered one of the most beautiful religious structures in Sicily.
