Overview of your Catania tour:

Let's discover the second largest town in the island! I have been living in Sicily for over 30 years and Catania is my favourite big city because of its glamour and the air of hectic activity of its citizens. Founded by the Greeks in the 8th century BC, on foot of the highest volcano in Europe, Catania is known as the Milan of the South thanks to its bustling economic activity. Rebuilt after the terrible earthquake of 1693 in baroque style, Catania is also called the black town because of the common use of lava stone as a building material. Come and explore the city with me!

Your Catania tour itinerary

• From the harbour of Catania, we will walk to the town through the beautiful Via Etnea, the main ancient street, stopping along the way at the Roman amphitheatre, the medieval Castle Ursino and on the University square. • Then we will continue our tour visiting the most popular baroque palaces and churches, having a look at the principal monasteries road, Via Crociferi and of course the Cathedral and its beautiful square with the famous Elephant Fountain. • We don't have to miss the fish market, which takes place every morning but not on Sunday. • Free time for shopping and enjoying a nice "granita" or cannolo di ricotta. . . ! Please inquire before booking if your group is larger than 6.
