| Catania | Traveling Tips for Catania Posted: Wed May 7, 2008 05:34 AM UTC
Hi! I'll be taking a cruise and one of the stops in is Catania. There are organized outings with the cruise line but i was hoping my boyfriend and i could tour on our own. I was just wondering if it's going to be difficult for us to navigate around-pretty much having no idea where we're going when we step off the boat. Just curious if anyone has any tips or advice!

Hi there....depends how long is the stay in Catania..... if its a couple of hours.....i suggest just walk from the ferry to the centre...its not far away and walk around.... if you're staying very long, then you could do some nice excursions outside of catania...such as Taormina or mount etna!

If you're staying just for a day, I recommend you walk from the harbour to the city. Its only a few minutes away and its not worth taking a taxi. You can ask directions to go to Piazza Elefante from where you can take a 30-minute tour on a sort of 'train' and you will be shown many interesting things. The open air market is worth a visit. In Via Etnea you can find many nice shops. It all depends what you'd like to see and whether you speak Italian.
