Overview
Catania is not visited: it is discovered. To reach the heart of the city, you need someone who can guide you from the inside.This tour is led by a true local and is rooted in my personal story: my family, my grandparents, and the places where I grew up. Telling Catania means starting from its people and from streets lived every day. Walking through the historic center, the city reveals itself through memories and shared history:dominations, reconstructions, contradictions, and everyday resilience. A Southern city where past and present coexist, where popular culture meets urban change, and where Mediterranean life is tangible.Only then does Mount Etna come into view: a constant, silent presence that has shaped how Catania was built and imagined. Not a tourist attraction, but an identity woven into its streets and into its people.This is an authentic, participatory tour, open to dialogue and cultural exchange. No staged stories, no sugar-coated version. We will also touch on social and environmental issues, making each experience real and unique.
