DAY 1: CATANIA

A land of contrasts and wonders, eastern Sicily is a sensory journey weaving together millennia of history, breathtaking volcanic landscapes, sun-kissed Baroque stone, and the scent of the sea. Here, nature erupts in all its power—from the breath of Mount Etna to cliffs plunging into the blue—while cities tell a Greek, Roman, Arab, and Norman past that can be felt at every corner. The deep identity of the region is also reflected in its cuisine: bold flavors, time-honored recipes, lively markets, and rural traditions that endure through time.

Arrival in Catania and hotel check-in.

DAY 2: CATANIA, SYRACUSE

Departure by train from Catania to Syracuse (approx. 1h10min). Hotel check-in.

A millennia-old city, founded by the Greeks and deeply loved by Archimedes, Syracuse enchants visitors with its dual soul: on one side, the vast archaeological park with Greek theaters, stone “ears,” and rock-cut tombs; on the other, the refined Ortigia, an island connected to the mainland by two bridges, where temples transformed into churches, noble palaces, and narrow streets come alive with markets, artists, and the scent of the sea.

Included experience:

Guided tour of Syracuse

A fascinating journey into the heart of one of the oldest cities in the Mediterranean, where myth, art, and architecture intertwine. Accompanied by an expert guide, explore the archaeological area with the magnificent Greek Theatre and the enigmatic Ear of Dionysius, then immerse yourself in the Baroque elegance of Ortigia, with its history-filled alleys, temples turned into churches, luminous squares, and spectacular sea views.

Suggested and not included experience:

INCLUSION INSURANCE IN COMBINED TRAVEL RESERVATIONS

With regard to our inclusion insurance, said insurance exclusively includes those people who have their residence and origin of the trip in Spain or Portugal.

CHAPTER I (Obligations of information and content of the combined travel contract), Article 153 (Pre-contractual information), point 1, section H:

"1. Before the traveler is bound by any package travel contract or corresponding offer, the organizer, and also the retailer, when the package is sold through the latter, will provide the traveler with the form with the standard information regarding to the package trip that appears in annex II, A or B, as well as the following information that is applicable to the package trip:

"h) Information on the subscription of an optional insurance that covers the expenses originated in the event that the traveler decides to terminate the contract or the expenses of assistance, including those of repatriation, in case of accident, illness or death."

Said section refers to the obligation to inform the client of the possibility of contracting insurance, not to the obligation to include insurance on the trip, that is, the client has the power (option) to contract insurance with the agency or not. . The agency has the obligation to inform that it is recommended that the client take out insurance that includes, at least, issues such as repatriation,... which is basically inclusion insurance.

Once the agency informs the client about the recommendation to contract insurance for the trip, it is the client who can contract insurance with the agency, or contract it directly with whoever they want.
