Half Day Tour of Ragusa

Walking tour in Ragusa

Tour Price : €180 Duration : 4 hours Languages: English, Italian

Ragusa was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2002 because of its Baroque heritage. This city hides a very long history that is shown not only by both prehistoric necropolises and Paleochristian catacombs but also by its medieval ruins that are part of its Baroque dwellings and churches. However, the contemporary history of Ragusa is quite charming as well. Many prestigious representatives of the early 20th-century architecture have contributed to the artistic decoration of the city. For instance, Ernesto Lapadula e Ugo Tarchi, just to mention a few, left their signatures on the most important buildings in Ragusa. Ragusa has three souls that emanate their halo through the ruins of the pre-earthquake city, the paramount monuments of Baroque Ragusa, and the monuments and government buildings of the 20th-century Ragusa.

Through this walking tour from Upper Ragusa to Ragusa Ibla (the oldest district), we will go through the different steps of the development of this enchanting city.
