      Welcome to Sicily! This region has a powerful past, a melting pot of many different cultures that have conquered its soil, and an intriguing present.

Starting from piazza Frederick of Swabia, our English guided tour will lead us through the ancient Norman castle of the city, the Ursino Castle, the Roman Baths, Piazza del Duomo, and the Fontana dellโ€™Elefante.


      Catania, and Sicily as a whole, is also well known for its superb local food (pasta alla Norma anyone?): we will make sure we include a well deserved stop at the extraordinary fish market of the city (La Pescheria).
