Tour description

With us, the guides of Guiding Sicily, you will experience a unique adventure because we are able to combine professional knowledge of the city with daily experience, as we are all from Catania. Our tour will tell you about the millennial history of the city, its connection with Mount Etna, its most illustrious figures, and its famous gastronomy.
The tour begins at Piazza Duomo with the Elephant Fountain, the Cathedral (interior), and the Town Hall. Crossing the historic fish market, you will reach Ursino Castle. Then Piazza Mazzini, Piazza San Francesco, and via dei Crociferi to end at Piazza Università

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR TRAVELERS:

The Guiding Sicily Tour Guides, covered by Civil Liability insurance to protect the client, do not just describe Catania in its peculiarities, but build an original itinerary, offering the visitor many possible ways to enjoy it. The planning of the itinerary and the management of the guide service require skills that only a licensed professional can offer. For this reason, this IS NOT a free tour and at the end of the guided visit, we ask the visitor to make a contribution of at least 10 euros per person (children under 10 years old free).
