Free walking tours in Syracuse

Fausto was a great guide! He paced the walk very well and explained things very clearly. His extensive knowledge of the history, culture and people of Siracusa and Sicily in general was excellent and he presented it in a fun way that helped us remember the information. Fausto was a great storyteller and we highly recommend taking his tour!

Fausto hat umfassend und detailliert informiert und uns engagiert und begeistert die Sehenswürdigkeiten von Ortigia nahe gebracht. Auch die Restauranttipps waren sehr hilfreich.

Fausto did a great job. He shared lots of information in an engaging fashion, and was very happy to answer questions.

I really enjoyed the city tour with Fausto! He was super knowledgeable and shared so many interesting stories about the city and its history. You could tell he’s really experienced and passionate about what he does. The tour was both fun and informative — I learned a lot and had a great time. Highly recommend joining if you get the chance!

Fausto deserves 10 out of 10 - knowledgeable, interesting, friendly and with sense of humour. One could see how he enjoys sharing his knowledge and interacting with people. A great guide and a lovely person!

Fausto juggled two languages while he charmed and educated our group of eager tourists. What fun to learn about the unique history of Ortigia, Syracuse, Sicily!

Great tour and perfect overview for our first day in Ortigia. Highly recommend.

Great guide gave great overview of general and cultural and religious history of Syracuse

The guide was a native from Siracusa, we had an amazing time, where we not only learnt many interesting facts, but also had fun and felt the love for his own city. We can only warmly recommend you to go on a tour with Fausto and discover Siracusa ;)

Interesting and entertaining walking tour! Can definitely recommend it!

Fausto was an excellent guide. Interesting and informative. Highly recommend this tour.

Fausto was an amazing guide of Ortigia! I am so happy I did this walking tour.

Fabulous Fausto!!! Very knowledgeable about the history of Syracuse and the Ortigia Peninsula. Took us through the centuries and shared inside secrets of the hidden areas of the City! Terrific guide!

The guide was a bit late to start and it would have been helpful to know that he was running late given we and the others were looking around and not sure how to identify him. The overall tour was good and we enjoyed seeing and learning history about the area and architecture that we may not have discovered on our own. The guide was knowledgeable but low energy. That's not essential on a walking tour, but it does help when the tour lasts a couple hours. We did enjoy the fact that this was a small group of 6 people however.

We have done a number of walking tours in Italy, Spain and Portugal. This was the best one we have done.

My wife and I have done a number of walks and tours but this one was the best ever. Fausto showed passion, great communication and a tremendous amount of knowledge. We will come back again.

Fausto is a great and enthusiastic guide. I learned a lot about Siracusa in a very short time. I particularly enjoyed the visit inside the cathedral - what a neat building with so much history.

Grazie mille Fausto, we enjoyed the bilingual tour very much. High recommendation 😊!

Fausto is extremely knowledgeable and provided tremendous insight about the history of Syracuse and the various dynasties and countries that have ruled over the city over the years and what each brought to the culture of the city.

Fausto was a wonderful guide. Informative, fun, interesting and patient. We learnt things that we would never have found out on our own and he made the walk fun too. Would definitely recommend.

Great walk with Fausto. Have learned a lot of Syracuse and Sicilia history.

Absolutely first rate. Fausto is a superb guide and I highly recommend his professionalism, delivery and knowledge. Well done.

Excelente guia. Muy entusiasta y siempre dispuesto a responder a nuestras preguntas.

Great and interesting tour! Fausto is first of all, a true Siracusan, and you can tell he loves his city. The tour was very well done, provided a lot of information on the history of the city and the area in general. We took the tour finally in Italian, because all other people were Italian and we were the only foreigners, but I could tell that Fausto's English level would have been well suited to conduct the tour, anyway. At the end of more than 2 hours, we finished the tour and the guide provided us with some tips on where to eat, where to have the best "granite", etc. Totally recommendable!!!

One of the bests walks we’ve taken. So much history packed in. Sometimes the guides are entertaining but give you no knowledge and history of the location. Fausto was a true historian!
