You will be driven to spend the morning in the nearby town of Modica. While Modica is one of Sicily’s famed baroque towns, here we also have an ulterior motive, and that is chocolate. Modica is an important centre for chocolate making, and has its own distinctive style known as ‘cioccolato modicano’. This is made using a different production method to regular chocolate, based on Aztec techniques brought in during the period of Spanish rule. We organise for you a demonstration of the production of this chocolate and a tasting. There are a range of features to see and do in Modica, such as the church of San Giorgio, ancient frescoes, and simply enjoying the atmosphere of this elegant town. We will provide details for what to see and do. You will return to Ragusa around lunchtime, and you'll have the afternoon free to be charmed by the elegant palazzos and the picturesque winding streets. We suggest you follow our 'Sicilian Baroque Ragusa Walking Route', which reveals many elements of this distinctive architectural style. Some of Sicily’s architectural gems are scattered through Ragusa. The buildings we see in this style were built from 1693 onwards, and feature elegant balconies and balustrades. Accommodation: Ragusa – San Giorgio Palace Hotel / Hotel Itria Palace / Hotel Antico Convento (all 4 star hotels)
