Walking Tour of Castelbuono

€20.00

Discover the historic heart of Castelbuono on a guided walking tour of the town's five most celebrated attractions — all within the ancient center, all within two hours.

Your tour includes:

  • The Ventimiglia Castle — one of Sicily's finest medieval fortresses, including the breathtaking baroque Chapel of Sant'Anna, patron saint of Castelbuono

  • The Old Mother Church — featuring medieval crypt paintings and ancient artifacts that tell the story of the town's earliest inhabitants

  • The Clock Tower & Museum — a rare chance to see the inner workings of the iconic timepiece overlooking Castelbuono's main square

  • Fiasconaro — Sicily's most celebrated pastry and gelato maker, famous worldwide for their panettone. Free samples included… and yes, there's a gift shop on the way out

  • The Natural History Museum & San Francesco Cloisters — a fascinating collection curated by Castelbuono's very own Charles Darwin, followed by a well-earned drink in the cloister bar

Tours are conducted in English or Italian. French and Spanish may be available on request — please contact us for details.

Meeting point: The castle entrance (subject to change — please confirm on the day of your tour)
