Dr. Corrado Arato

Corrado Arato lives and works in Noto, the main Baroque city of Sicily. After the graduation in political science, he turns his passion into job, getting the Tourist guide license in 2005. “I love to bring travellers among the beauties of Sicily, out of its common routes, above all in the Val di Noto, which has been part of Unesco Heritage since 2002. During my job, I create a unique and inbviting atmosphere, showing the visible and invisible facets of the cities. Sicily is a perfect place for travellers and I try to make them fall in love with its history, art, unique locations and colourful landscapes. Here, in front of the African sea, European history was made and every unusual glimpse is a magic! Only in Sicily, walking through its country, after a bend, tourists can run into a town, which can be surprisingly charming.”

Dario Vaghi is a trekker for passion first, after for work! Naturalistic guide, expert about Mount Etna Volcano and volunteer for mountain rescue team, since the childhood he spent his time in the Etna forest.
