Customer Testimonials

Hotel in Ortigia amazing: great staff and terrific location. Breakfast was excellent and to eat on the terrace in the sunshine was fantastic.

The gardens were fantastic: all different and very interesting to meet the inspired and enthusiastic owners/creators was such an important part.

All the travelling was excellent: on time and brilliantly managed by the tour leaders. The coach driver was exceptional and could turn his vehicle on a sixpence and squeeze through the narrowest gap when required. The meals at the gardens were fabulous.
