About this tour
An eight-hour private drive from Pozzallo through the Val di Noto's baroque hillside towns—Ragusa Ibla, Modica, and Scicli. Your own vehicle and driver let you set the pace, lingering in honey-coloured plazas and winding stone streets without tour-group constraints. Air-conditioned comfort, bottled water, and onboard WiFi included. No guided commentary, so you're free to explore independently or hire a local guide on arrival.
Highlights
- Ragusa Ibla: dramatic staircase descent into 18th-century town centre
- Modica's towering church and aristocratic palazzo-lined streets
- Scicli's intimate piazzas and filmset-worthy stone architecture
- Private vehicle—stop where and when you choose
- Eight hours to explore three towns at your own rhythm
- Wheelchair-accessible vehicle and accessible town entry points
What to expect
You'll be collected from Pozzallo and driven inland to Ragusa Ibla first—expect a steep walk down (and back up) the famous staircase to the town's heart, lined with Sicilian baroque facades. Next, Modica awaits with its grand church perched high above the valley; the town spreads across hillside tiers of pale limestone. Finally, Scicli offers narrow passages, hidden courtyards, and quieter piazzas than its neighbours. Each stop rewards wandering on foot. The drive between towns is scenic; rolling countryside and stone-built villages dot the landscape.
Good to know
No guide is included—you'll navigate independently using maps or hire a local at each town. Bring comfortable walking shoes for cobbled streets and hills. Restaurants and bars throughout all three towns. Infants can travel in prams; specialised seats available for small children.
