What to do and see in Catania, Sicily: The Best Things to do for Honeymoon

May 13, 2022 Russell Mellin

Catania has been a prize of many empires over the centuries, from Greeks to Romans to Arabs to Normans to Spaniards (to name a few). But its citizens have a more dangerous enemy right in their backyard—Mount Etna, Europe's largest and most active volcano, which destroyed the city with earthquakes and lava flows in 1693. Look closely at the baroque buildings dating from after the eruption—you'll notice a creative use of lava.

Streaty

A relaxing walking tour around the local fish market of Catania and its backstreets to hunt the best daily selection of street food (eg. arancini, granitas). This tour has been designed for travellers who want to experience Catania the way it really is, without filters of any kind. Streaty guides take travellers into food spots and hidden gems they would hardly find on their own. Besides the food experience, Streaty guides share with travellers daily life stories, discuss social issues and historical facts in order to give a complete overview of local culture! All tour guides are Sicilian and regularly licensed. A walk with a local friend and foodie, this is what it's all about :)
