Catania Questions

[bennybear]

The view from the port of Catania is also pretty good.  So I wouldn’t worry too much.

The volcano is huge. You can see it from a lot of places along the shore. That includes your ship.

A good combined  excursion is Taormina and Mt Etna.

Taormina is lovely but we also totally enjoyed Ortygia and  Noto 

 

How did you get to Ortygia? Train? Tour? Other?

We took a private tour.  We also visited Syracuse and beautiful Noto and a winery.

Did you port in Catania? Do you happen to remember the name of the tour company? Thanks!

Yes, we toured out of Catania.   

We used Giuseppe Leotta,  and he was the owner and driver of the company.  He was very responsive, reasonably priced and took us to a great place for lunch.   We had some specific things we wished to see and do and he arranged it all.  We visited the famous pastry shop in Noto,  he arranged a wine tasting of Nero d’ Avila that we requested.  

 

When our ship docked early he changed things to accommodate us.  We would highly recommend him.

 

 Here’s his contact information:
