Discover Sicily
with the best tours.

In a day in Catania: Piazza del Duomo and the Cathedral of Sant'Agata, Via Etnea, the fish market, and Ursino Castle. For food: arancini, granita, brioche, and cannoli. A 3–4-hour guided tour covers the main points of interest with historical context.

A guided Mount Etna excursion from Catania typically lasts 6–8 hours, including transfers. You ascend to 2,900 m by cable car and off-road vehicle. Tours depart early in the morning and return in the late afternoon. In winter the summit can be snow-capped — bring layered clothing.

Absolutely. Taormina is about 55 km away (50–70 min by car). The Greek Theater overlooking Mount Etna is among the most famous panoramas in Italy. Many tours combine Taormina with the Alcantara Gorge or Castelmola. Booking in advance in summer is essential.

The closest areas are Etna DOC (northern and eastern slopes, 1–1.5 hours from Catania) with wineries such as Benanti, Cornelissen, and Terre Nere. Winery tours with tastings last 2–3 hours and are easily booked through GetYourGuide or directly with the wineries.
