Itinerary

  • Castello di Donnafugata

    First stop at “Castello di Donnafugata” which, in the fiction, is the local boss Don Balduccio Sinagra’s dwelling.

    45 minutes

  • La Casa del Commissario Montalbano

    We continue to Punta Secca (Marinella in the fiction) to visit, from outside, the House of Montalbano and nearby the sandy beach where he swims.

    30 minutes

  • Donnalucata

    We continue to Donnalucata, where the episode “the shape of water” is mostly set. In fact, the promenade of Donnalucata, which in the fiction is called Marinella, is the main scenario of this episode. However, it is often used in many other episodes of The Inspector Montalbano.

    20 minutes

  • Centro storico di Scicli - World Heritage Site

    Afterwards, we reach the baroque village of Scicli. Short walk for visiting the beautiful baroue historical centre (Montelusa in the fiction), “Palazzo Comunale” (the City Hall) which is Vigata’s police station in the fiction, and “Palazzo Iacono”, the police headquarter.

    1 hour 30 minutes

  • Antica Dolceria Bonajuto

    We continue to Modica, whose historical centre is also in Baroque style. The beautiful staircase of Saint George’s Cathedral was the protagonist of the episode “Tocco d’artista”. The beautiful views over the town, the churches and palaces in Baroque style, and the characteristic alleys are the backdrop to many other scenes of the fiction. An obligatory stop at the end of the tour of the historic center will be the Antica Cioccolateria Bonajuto, where it will be possible to taste the famous and delicious Modica Chocolate in its numerous fragrances.

    1 hour 30 minutes

  • Ragusa Ibla

    We end up with the visit of the beautiful Piazza Duomo of Ragusa Ibla, with its baroque Church of San Giorgio, which represents the main square of Vigata, the imaginary village of Montalbano. The view of Ibla with the dome of the illuminated Cathedral appears behind Montalbano in the episode A blade of light, when the Commissioner, guest of the issuer of Vigata Rete Libera, issues an interview. The Cathedral of San Giorgio and the square of Ragusa Ibla return in many episodes of the TV series. Whenever the Commissioner stops in the central square or in the Church of Madre di Vigata we admire the superb baroque style of Ragusa Ibla, its square and the Duomo. The church of Santa Maria delle Scale, the staircase and the magnificent panorama of Ragusa Ibla are the backdrop to a mugger in the episode "Gatto e Cardellino". The Circolo di Conversazione, overlooking Piazza Duomo, is the place where Montalbano often breaks cabbasisi to doctor Pasquano playing cards. Many scenes are filmed inside and outside the Circle. In the episode "La luna di carta" the Commissioner enters the smoky rooms of the Club, among notables and rich people of Vigata playing cards, and meets the annoyed Pasquano who with fake courtesy and ironic jokes answers Montalbano's questions. The Giardino Ibleo is located not far from the restaurant da Calogero. In Vigata the municipal garden becomes an elegant nursing home where Montalbano goes to the episode La luna di carta. In the tree-lined garden paths, the Commissioner meets an old thief who shows a key to find out what he can open.

Absolutely brilliant day -highly recommended

Published on Aug, 2024

This was the most brilliant experience and a wonderful way to celebrate my birthday with my friends. Riccardo and Annalisa were the most thoughtful, attentive, interesting and informative guides and made sure we saw Montalbano’s house, ate at his table in the restaurant at Punta Secca and toured the police station in Scicli-even getting photos in his office ! It was so much more than we could’ve wished for and I highly recommend the trip. Not only did we see more of the Sicily but we learned so much about it too! Many, many thanks Riccardo and Annalisa for making my birthday a truly special and most memorable one -we had the best time ! Sue, Angie, Allyson and Cath

Excellent value

Published on May, 2024

We had a superb day We booked a private tour for 3. Our guide Ricardo was friendly, knowledgeable and extremely helpful especially in accommodating my elderly mother. This was a full day's outing and we saw everything we’d hoped to see, all in great comfort. More than happy to recommend and thank you again, Ricardo.

Wonderful experience

Published on Sep, 2023

Our guide was excellent. This was a very memorable experience. Our guide was helpful very informative and knowlegeable. Nothing was too much trouble. He showed us many of the film locations for Commissario Montalbano, including the wonderful view of his house. Full marks to our guide who we would highly recommend. We'll done. BRAVISSIMO!

A perfect day out for any Inspector Montalbano fan!

Published on Sep, 2023

A brilliant excursion with an amazing and safe driver (thanks Giuseppe!) who was friendly, knowledgeable about the locations and great company for the day. We had a fantastic experience - the highlight has to be the set of the Police Station in Scicli's city hall which we weren't expecting to be accessible. Montalbano's house in Punta Secca is a close second however and we loved the seafront in Donnalucata that all fans will recognise. Thank you!

exceptional guide and trip

Published on May, 2023

Big fan of the series. I saw his house, ate in his restaurant of choice and visited his place of work together with breathtaking scenery and towns in between. As an oldie, alone with limited walking ability my guide was exceptional and he excelled in his ability to enable access to everywhere and was very patient and informative, if i could give more stars I would.
