One day with volcano views and a hilltop town. This Etna & Taormina from Catania mix gives you two very different Sicilian “wow” moments: a free walk through Taormina’s medieval streets, then a guided trek on Etna with volcanic storytelling…
Catania at night tastes like a story. This 3-hour walking tour threads you through the historic center’s lanes and squares while you eat your way through the city’s street-food identity—starting on Via Crociferi and ending with dessert after an evening…
A rattling 4×4 is the right way to meet Etna. You get off the main roads, roll through volcanic scenery like the Valle del Bove, and finish with a mountain-shelter lunch with Etna wine. It’s also a day where the…
Fresh pasta in a real Catania apartment? Yes. I like this class because it turns Sicilian food into hands-on skills: you’ll learn to make pistachio-filled ravioli and other fresh shapes, then eat what you make with local wine. It also…

Etna feels close when your guide drives you up. This full-day private tour is interesting because you get a custom guide and air-conditioned car, yet you still reach serious volcanic viewpoints like Rifugio Sapienza. I especially like the stop in…
Two Sicilian worlds in one day. You get the prehistoric shock of Pantalica’s necropolis plus the artistic payoff of Sortino’s Baroque architecture, all in one smooth 8-hour loop. One thing to consider: it’s not suitable for people with mobility impairments,…
Etna in winter hits different. This short trek packs big views and up-close volcanic drama, from Gulf-of-Catania panoramas to the Valle del Bove and the Silvestri craters. I especially like how the walk mixes geology with real hiking time, and…
Catania to Siracusa is a popular hop, but getting it right takes planning. This private transfer is interesting because you get door-to-door pickup and drop-off, plus an English-speaking driver who handles the road and navigation. I like the way this…
