Discover Catania through a journey that combines story telling, traditions, and gastronomy. Start the morning with a typical Catanese breakfast, with a granita and brioche (sweet) or a cappuccino and cipollina (savory), perfect for starting the day like a true Catanese.

Walk through the historic streets, starting from Piazza Duomo, the beating heart of the city, where you will hear about the Fontana dell’Elefante and the Cattedrale di Sant'Agata. Then, explore Porta Uzeda, one of the ancient city gates that once served as the main entrance for travelers. Its construction is linked to the protection of the city, a symbol of the city's strength and defense.

Next, visit the Pupi Siciliani Shop, where you will hear fascinating stories about the tradition of the Sicilian puppets, marionettes that recount the deeds of the knights of Charlemagne, medieval heroes, and epic battles.

Head to the Pescheria, Catania's most famous market. Here, among fresh fish stalls, hear a fun anecdote about how Catanese fishmongers are known for their fast and colorful talk, often in dialect.

Reach Piazza Università, where you will uncover curiosities about the ancient University of Catania, founded in 1434, and its cultural and scientific impact. Your walk will continue towards Piazza Stesicoro, a place rich in history and archaeology, where you can admire the ruins of the ancient Roman Amphitheater, once the stage for spectacular events.

Finally, end the tour at Villa Bellini, a park that enchants with its romantic charm. Hear a mysterious legend about the villa, which speaks of an impossible love between a young aristocrat and a soldier, whose spirit is said to still wander in its gardens.

To conclude, enjoy a tasting of arancini (one of Catania’s signature dishes) and a glass of Etna wine, perhaps a Nerello Mascalese, a robust wine that tells the strong character of Mount Etna.
