Company information

We are Andrea and Maria Giovanna, a young couple with a 14 year old daughter, Elsa, from whom our business, Elsa d'Ortigia , takes its name. Our experience in the tourism industry began about 13 years ago when, thanks to friends who ran a B&B, we started offering our support and discovered our passion for this field. Since then, tourism has become more than just a profession for us it is a true passion. Our philosophy is based on the joy of meeting people from all over the world and connecting with different cultures. Being sociable people, we love building genuine and lasting relationships. Our motto is: Arrive as guests, leave as friends.
