Scicli Walking Tours Highlights
One of the best ways to explore Scicli is on foot on a Scicli city tour, supplying you with a wonderful overview of this charming Baroque treasure in the heart of Sicily. Tours through this UNESCO World Heritage site immerse you in a vibrant blend of history, culture, and stunning architecture. The awe-inspiring Church of St. Matthew, with its mix of Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque styles, dominates the skyline and is typically one of the first stops. You'll marvel at the opulence of the Archbishops Palace, a testament to the grandeur of 18th-century Sicilian nobility. Then, we'll meander along Via Mormino Penna, a lively street lined with quaint cafes and artisan shops, pulsating with local life. TV fans might recognize some of the sights from the famed Italian series Inspector Montalbano. Our walk also takes us to the impressive Town Hall, a former convent, and the adjacent Santa Maria la Nova Church, both adorned with ornate stonework and housing valuable art collections. Finally, we'll explore the Fornace Penna, a testament to Scicli's industrial past, now a cultural hub. Join us in Scicli for a walking tour like no other, where every step echoes with history and every corner reveals a new architectural delight!
