Tour Details
We'll meet at Piazza Duomo and begin our exploration of the wine and cultural heritage of Catania. The tour includes visits to the Cathedral of Sant'Agata, a significant example of Sicilian Baroque, and the Fontana dell'Elefante, featuring an elephant sculpture from Mount Etna’s lava stone.
Next, we'll visit Pescheria, the historic fish market of Catania, immersing ourselves in its authentic atmosphere. Here, we will have our first wine tasting, enjoying a glass of wine with local delicacies, such as caponata, olives, cheese, or cold meats.
Afterward, we’ll proceed to Castello Ursino to view this important monument from the outside, then to Piazza Mazzini to appreciate its noble buildings and rich history.
In the final segment of the tour, we’ll stop along via Crociferi for a second wine tasting with appetizers and dessert, where we will taste three wines: an Etna Bianco, an Etna Rosso, and a fortified sweet wine. The tour concludes after 2.5 hours on via Crociferi.
