Underground Catania: Tickets and Guided Tour of Secret Churches and Passages

Matilda was our guide, and she was very knowledgeable and keen to answer all of our questions about the sites we visited. We loved this unique experience and would highly recommend it to others. The tour fee included access to 4 underground sites, ranging from prehistoric to medieval periods, and we especially enjoyed seeing (and hearing) the Amenano river and viewing the paintings in Chiesa San Gaetano.

Our guide Oreste was a well of knowledge. All questions were answered in perfect English, he’s very knowledgeable about geology which showed in pointing out interesting facts about different era. We learned so much about Catania and its history! If you like history this is a must tour! Two hours flew by! We would easily listen to Oreste for another two, if he didn’t had a bath and mango juice waiting for him.

Bellissima esperienza, consigliatissima! Ho visitato Catania sotterranea partendo dall'Odeon Romano ed è stato un tour davvero super. Premetto che la storia non è proprio la mia passione, ma la guida è stata bravissima: chiara, dettagliata, estremamente simpatica e gentile, capace di rendere tutto interessante senza mai essere pesante. Durante il percorso abbiamo esplorato vari siti storici, tra cui una suggestiva grotta dove scorre il fiume sotterraneo di Catania. Un'esperienza che consiglio a tutti, soprattutto nelle giornate più calde, dato che si trova anche un bel po' di fresco!

Trevlig tur som gav oss möjlighet att se flera ställen som vi nog inte hade besökt på egen hand. Guiden var kunnig, engagerad och hade mycket humor. Ett stort plus var hörlurarna, som gjorde att man hörde guiden tydligt hela tiden. Det blev dock lite mycket årtal och information för vår smak, och turen kändes stundtals något lång. Jag och min man uppskattade turen, men våra tonåringar tyckte tyvärr att den blev både tråkig och lång. På det stora hela en bra och intressant tur, särskilt tack vare den duktiga guiden.
