Ready to discover Catania by tasting excellent local products?
A guided walking tour will lead you through the historical streets and squares of the historic centre, giving you a historical introduction to the city while you delight in some of the best local culinary specialities.
The Catania food tour is an unmissable journey to savour the authentic culinary essence of the city. Every corner offers delights at all hours, from sunrise to deep into the night, offering a taste of the vibrant Catania soul. Over time, this experience has become a true cult, thanks to the combination of excellent quality ingredients and a centuries-old gastronomic tradition that has made Catania a mecca for gourmets and street food lovers.
Start the tour by discovering the Benedictine Monastery and then enjoy an aperitif of horse meat and wine at sunset in the historic setting of Castello Ursino. You'll pass through the fish market where you'll taste typical Sicilian cheeses and cold cuts, before arriving at Piazza Duomo, a sublime example of Sicilian Baroque and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, to taste the typical arancino.
Continue through the streets of the historical centre to discover side streets and the Massimo Bellini theatre, the centre of Catania's opera.
Finally, the sweet part of the tour will take you through a selection of Sicilian pastry delicacies, including the famous cannolo di ricotta, cassatella and almond paste during the winter months, or the fresh Sicilian granita during the summer months.
