  • Catania Sicily Cruise Port Guide | Top 15 Things to Do in Catania Italy
    Welcome to Catania, one of the oldest and largest cities in Sicily!
    Catania sits at the foot of Mount Etna, one of the most dangerous and active European volcanoes that shaped the city to this day. With its unique Baroque architecture, lively streets and a variety of things to offer, Catania is a frequent stop in Mediterranean cruise itineraries with Messina, Taormina and Palermo.
    In this video, I share with you insider information on the port of Catania (getting around, practical information) and the 15 best things to do in Catania. I would appreciate a "thumbs up" and subscribe if you find my content helpful. 🙏 ❤️

      Where are the best shopping area for cheap luxury brands?

    • @AdventourBegins
      @AdventourBegins  Před 5 měsíci +1

      Hmm, definitely Via Etnea (the main street) and Via Corso. My hotel was on Via Umberto I, it's a long street with many beautiful shops as well. Enjoy the shopping :)@@momentscreatives

    Thank you so much for your very well done, informative video! Planning my trip to Sicily in Mid-end of October 2023, thinking of being based in Catania and taking day trips for there would be ideally for me as i won’t be driving. Do you have any lodging recommendations in Catania? Also is it recommended to stay over a day or 2 in Syracuse to visit towns close by, such as Noto, Ragusa? Thank you!

    • @AdventourBegins
      @AdventourBegins  Před 9 měsíci

      Hi there! Yes, Catania is the perfect base for the exploration of Sicily. I got around the island by train, which is well connected with Messina, Palermo, Syracuse and other cities. I was traveling solo and I stayed in Luxury BB Iolanda, located a 10-minute walk from Catania Central Station. The accommodation was great overall. You can also stay in Syracuse for a couple of days because Noto and Ragusa are best explored from there. I didn't have time so I didn't visit Noto and Ragusa, but hopefully next time :). Enjoy your trip! Hope this helps!

    Love your videos. Going to stop in Catania on a cruise. 11 hours... shouls I plan a side trip? Taromina or Syracuse? Which would you suggest?

    • @AdventourBegins
      @AdventourBegins  Před dnem +1

      Thank you! 😇Yes, I would definitely plan a side trip, my suggestion is Taormina. Syracuse is also beautiful and historic, but Taormina is perched on a hilltop with stunning views. The ancient theater is spectacular with views of Etna in the background. So, my choice would be Taormina. Both places are well-connected to Catania by train, that's the most affordable option. You need about 3-4 hours in Taormina and you'll probably have some time in Catania since 11 hours is plenty enough. The port in Catania is around a 15-minute walk from the city center. Enjoy your cruise and let me know how it was! :)

    Fabulous video, thank you! What is the best way to get from Catania to Roccella Ionica?

    • @AdventourBegins
      @AdventourBegins  Před rokem

      Hello! Hmm, Roccella Ionica is not in Sicily, so you would need to take a train to Reggio Calabria Centrale Station and then change to a regional train to Roccella Ionica. Also, you can combine train and bus, but these options generally take hours and are not recommended. Driving is a better option and the ride takes about 3 hours. Hope this helps. :)
