Caltagirone tour
The tour begins with hotel pick-up and departure towards Caltagirone, home to many craftsmen and capital of Sicilian ceramics.
Here a master ceramist will give us a demonstration of the processing of ceramics, to then continue with a walk in the city center with a visit to the Church of Santa Maria del Monte and the homonymous staircase, consisting of 142 steps, decorated with ceramic tiles, built to join the lower part with the upper part of the city.
