Therefore, in case of rain, the experience may be less enjoyable, or even impractical. We recommend checking the weather before starting the game. If rain does occur, Savoca offers some shelters like Bar Vitelli to enjoy a granita, or the possibility to visit the interior of the Chiesa Matrice or the Capuchin Convent. Keep in mind that the essence of our game is to enjoy the outdoor environment.
