Walk where the Greeks watched tragedies two and a half thousand years ago.
The Neapolis Archaeological Park is the monumental heart of ancient Syracuse. Your guide, an archaeologist, will lead you into the Greek Theatre carved into the rock, where plays by Aeschylus were first performed and classical dramas are still staged every spring.
We then walk into the Latomia del Paradiso, a lush quarry garden, to reach the Ear of Dionysius, a cave with an amazing echo, and finish at the Roman Amphitheatre.
Neapolis tells the whole story of Syracuse in one walk: Greek theatre, Roman arena and the quarries that built the city.
One of the largest theatres of the Greek world, carved into the hillside.
An ancient quarry turned into a garden of citrus and fig trees.
A 23-metre-high cave named by Caravaggio, famous for its acoustics.
Gladiators fought here: see the arena and the tunnels for the beasts.
