Frequently asked questions

Catania itself is built from lava stone over repeated rebuildings, but its real advantage is location: within a day you can reach Greek temples at Agrigento, Roman mosaics at Piazza Armerina, the Baroque towns of Noto and Ortigia, and film-linked villages in the Sicani hills. Guided day trips add context that is hard to reconstruct on your own.
