2 MEANS OF TRANSPORT TO NOTO A town frequented by tourists must ensure sufficient availability of means of transport for both inside getting there. Unfortunately, not all small towns enjoy these services.

3 How you can get to Sicily and Noto PLANETRAINBUS FERRYCAR

4 By shuttle bus. Using bicycles. Through the rental of motorcycles. Through the rental of three-wheel cars. How you can move in Noto or in its countryside It is worth noting that the centre of Noto is pedestrianised and that the narrow streets that characterize the city prevent movement and very often cause traffic jams.

5 The two nearest airports to Noto are the international airports of Catania and Comiso, served by several airlines. Vincenzo Bellini- Fontanarossa airport in Catania: was opened in 1947 and was extensively expanded and renovated in 2009 and 2012. just outside the airport there are offices of the largest car rental companies. is conveniently connected to the A18 motorway, which links Catania to Noto. is 88 km from Noto. is also connected to the port of Catania, by an AMT Alibus bus service departing every 20 minutes. is the sixth largest airport in Italy for passenger traffic and is favored by geographical location and climatic conditions. However, it is sometimes subject to limitations or temporary closures due to volcanic ash. To combat this, in 2010 an innovative radar system was installed to monitor ash clouds. Pio La Torre airport in Comiso, in the province of Ragusa, is of minor importance compared to Catania: originating as a military airport, in May 2013 it was opened to civilian flights, which improved national and international connections in southeastern Sicily. It is about 76 km from Noto. Plane

6 The stretch of railway from Syracuse to Noto was opened in 1886. Currently the only connections from Noto are those with Syracuse and Modica-Ragusa. Since the station ticket office is closed and there are no automatic ticket machines, you have to buy tickets in a Travel Agency. Unfortunately, the situation of the railway network in Sicily is definitely not equal to that of Northern Italy. The gap is huge. In the north of Italy there are fast trains, like Freccia Rossa, that run at a speed of 350 km/h, connecting the various northern cities with the south. In southern Italy and Sicily, railway networks in many places are still single track and not electrified. This can result in long travel times, delays, many stops and changes.. Train

7 Bus is a good way to move between the city and the tourist spots. Noto is well connected to the airport of Catania, and the two companies that depart from Noto are AST and INTERBUS, which allow visitors to choose between different time slots. They connect the city with the most important cities of Northern Italy. AST provides connections from Noto to cities of the province of Ragusa and INTERBUS connects Noto to Pachino and surroundings. Bus Bus is considered the best means of transport for those who want to reach Catania airport. It has convenient times, and the stop is in front of the arrivals terminal.

8 There are several routes connecting Sicily to Italy. Currently, the ferry ports of Catania, Messina, Trapani, Palermo and Termini Imerese, in Sicily, are linked to those of Naples, Civitavecchia, Livorno and Genoa. The main ferry companies are Grandi Navi Veloci, Grimaldi Lines, Tirrenia, TTT Lines, Caronte & Tourist and Ustica Lines. Ferry

9 Car Car is the best way to visit the tourist attractions of Sicily. Tourists can rent cars directly outside the airport of Catania or when you arrive at your destination. Noto is also reachable by car via the highways A18 Messina-Catania- Siracusa-Gela and A19 Palermo-Catania-Siracusa, exiting at Noto.

10 At XVI Maggio Square you can take a taxi and easily reach the main cities of Sicily. Also, since 2013 there has been a service called 'Noto by bike‘, which, with a card that can be purchased online, allows tourists to rent an electric bike for the day. The service is available from 6:00 to 00:00, and enables you to make excursions in and outside Noto. Taxi and bicycle

11 In Noto there are many areas for caravans and campers, mostly located near the sea. Amongst these are: «Oasi Park Falconara», «Eucaliptus Park», « Noto Parking », "Airone", «Il Canneto» and "Caravan parking area Noto". Caravan and Camper Route from Noto to the Oasi Park Falconara
