Definitely, worth the £34 we paid for 2 people. The cathedral is worth a visit and exploring street markets nearby. Our favourite sites were Fontana Pretoria (fountain) and nearby Chiesa Santa Caterina- the church is beautiful. Other than that we just enjoyed plenty of street food and Sicilian restaurants.
