Tour listing[edit]

Does this listing conform to site policy that's laid out at Wikivoyage:Tour? I think the key point is, how hard is it for someone to access these places without being in a tour group?

  • A Porte Aperte (Unlocking Doors), Corso XXV aprile/Via Pietro Novelli (ticket office at the theatre Donnafugata, next to the Circolo di Conversazione), +39 366 319 4177, . W-Su 11:30, 12:30, 14:30, 15:30. Guided tours to Circolo di Conversazione, il Teatro Donnafugata and the garden of Palazzo Arezzo-Bertini. Approx. 50 min, in Italian/English. €10 prior booking by phone or email.

@Ikan Kekek: Hello Ikan, yes, this seems to be the only way to visit the places listed. I haven't use this one, but it seems to be quite reasonable.
I wanted to finish here, but I can't help adding that I was surprised that this one has triggered your attention. I don't know if you noticed that, but usually I don't put commercial stuff on this wiki, at least things what I didn't try myself. On the other hand this wiki is simply infested by slushy commercial listings. Nothing personal though! Cheers --Vadim Shlyakhov (talk) 19:45, 5 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't really notice who added the listing. I think that if it's the only way to visit these places, it's a good idea to inform readers about that in the tour listing. Thanks for explaining; I'm obviously fine with being reverted under these circumstances. Ikan Kekek (talk) 20:01, 5 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
OK You've prompted me for some further investigation about the "Circolo di conversazione" -- amazing -- it's still a private club [1] and some separate blog mentions these tours [2] (google helps). Have a nice day! --Vadim Shlyakhov (talk) 20:09, 5 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
You too. Thank you very much for your work and for the information. Ikan Kekek (talk) 20:20, 5 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
