We recommend - Street food tour through Catania We had a great tour through Catania with tour guide Serena. We were able to try many delicious Sicilian specialties in various places. The tour of the fish market followed by a tasting of fried squid was sensational. Serena took us to many sights in the lively city and was able to tell us a lot of interesting things about the history and culture. A successful mix. The tour is highly recommended. Once again, a big thank you to Serena.

2 hour walking tour of Catania - The guide was very interesting and it was a good introduction to the city. However, it was very tiring as it involved a lot of standing.
