A super fun and efficient way to see Syracuse and Ortigia - We chose a tuk tuk tour as it was 35 degrees and too hot to walk around Syracuse and Ortigia. We booked on the day and so glad we did. Vincenzo was right on time and picked us up from our accommodation. He gave us a great tour of Syracuse and Ortigia with enough time to get out at important stops and enter churches or take photos. The area we covered was huge and despite being so hot the breeze was great when we were driving. The tuk tuk is not built for comfort and the roads not good so it is very bumpy. Be warned if you have back problems. Vincenzo kindly dropped us off at the shops and my husband back at the hotel. So glad we did this tour !

Great way to see the city - We had a tour with 2 adults and 3 young children (6, 4, and 1). It was a perfect way to see the city quickly and efficiently. Our children all enjoyed the vehicle, and the adults enjoyed learning more about the city!

Tuk Tuk Adventure in Siracusa with Sicily in Travel - Our Norwegian cruise had to reroute due to high winds in Catania, and instead we docked in the beautiful port of Siracusa. Fortunately, we found a fantastic two-hour Tuk Tuk tour with Sicily in Travel, and it turned out to be a wondeful tour!
The meeting point was conveniently located just a five-minute walk from the port. Since we disembarked earlier than scheduled, we enjoyed a delicious coffee and croissants at a nearby café while waiting. When we arrived at the meeting spot, we were warmly welcomed by Iolanda, who offered us water and coffee as we waited. Everyone was incredibly friendly and accommodating.
Soon, our Tuk Tuk arrived and our adventure began! Riding in the small, fast vehicle was such a fun and unique way to explore the narrow streets of Siracusa. Our guide was knowledgeable, pointing out key historical sites and stopping at several picturesque spots for photos.
It was a perfect way to see the town in a short amount of time. It was efficient, informative, and very enjoyable. Highly recommended if your time in Siracusa is limited!

Yesterday’s Tuk Tuk Tour - Our guide, Francenzio, took us to places we would never have found on our own. He was very cheerful, knowledgeable and polite.

We were a family of 5 and... - We were a family of 5 and had to reserve 2 tuk tuks. They stayed together, which was nice, but our guides spoke very little English. We were shown different areas and still we walked away not knowing anything more than when we started. We still enjoyed the sights but it was a lot of $$$$ to not be able to communicate and ask questions.
