    We were there for an evening through lunch the next day and enjoyed Prespitino too! The fish market is great, raucous and real

    Hello guys I'm from Catania and I'm really glad you enjoyed your trip and grateful to have showed many corner of my town.
    Obsiouly being tourists hardly you could know the best place to taste the best dishes. Prestipino altogether isn't so bad but, I can swear in Catania there are some else pastry shop where you could get in heaven 😄
    P. S. Agatino is right. Many sicilian persons, in silly way underrated them isle..... Is pretty well impossible to finish discover it's richness.
    Cheers

      A month in Sicily is the perfect amount of time. It’s the type of place that you kinda want to settle into for a bit to really get to experience it. Thanks for watching!

    We went to Catania last September while on a cruise and loved it so much that I think I would like to spend a month in Sicily. When were you there? The weather looked perfect!

    Visited Catania 04/06/24 and must say what an absolutely filthy city. It’s like someone pressed pause on the 1970’s. If you’re doing a cruise there don’t waste your time getting off the ship.

      Concordo al 100%. La Sicilia è come uno scrigno nascosto, contiene così tante ricchezze sotto il profilo storico, archeologico, naturalistico, gastronomico eccetera che, ti ammalia.
      Credimi è come il "mal d'Africa" quando ci vai una volta non puoi fare a meno di ritornarci.
      Buon viaggio allora 😉

    Catania looks beautiful! And what a mix of cultures! No bueno on the horse burger, horses are for riding.

    • @TouristtoLocal
      @TouristtoLocal  Před 4 měsíci +1

      This city is so underrated! And I think going forward we’d have to agree with you about the horses 😅 we were surprised by how common it is to see them as a food item here!

    • @cindyk3076
      @cindyk3076 Před 4 měsíci

      @@TouristtoLocal I have heard that they are eaten in France as well so that is part of the culture there as in Catania, something I'm not sure I could handle. I've had a few horses in my life so I'm biased, lol.

      @thewebhorse Před 2 měsíci +1

      Anyway I'm from Catania and you know, me too hate to eat the horse. It's for real the many citizens use to do it, but, in an other hand (Fortunally) there are even that as me whose doesn't it😊

    Worst video about Catania I've seen so far. Just a bunch of obvious things and the two don't seem to be aware that Catania is next to Europe's highest and most active volcano.

      I'm from Catania and honestly I don't think so.
      The two guys are so cute and the footage is nice, although to make a fairer video it would be more time.

      Due sono i casi: o non sei mai stato a Catania e non hai la più remota idea di cosa scrivi o hai qualche personalissimo motivo per gettare discredito.
      Comunque sia, a fronte del travolgente fascino e della ricchezza di questa città, universalmente testimoniato la tua opinione è come un granello di sabbia che scompare nel deserto.

      @@thewebhorse esiste anche un terzo caso, il giudizio espresso è dettato da una conoscenza diretta della città tale da averne una pessima opinione in tema di vivibilità ed offerta di beni culturali ai quali solo gli stranieri evidentemente molto poco acculturati possono essere sensibili e le posso confermare che il discredito è la stessa città a gettarlo su se stessa per mano di chi ne ha responsabilità gestionale
