Sicily is famous for its delicious pistachios. Try it with pasta, on pizza and of course gelato!

Sicily in august was VERY hot so if you are sensitive keep that in mind and travel in a month when its a bit colder.

Catania, the second largest city in Sicily, is an incredible destination for a girls trip. With its stunning architecture, delicious food and lively nightlife, Catania offers something for everyone. One of the highlights of our trip was the Piazza del Duomo, where we were able to explore the beautiful Cathedral of Saint Agatha and enjoy a coffee in one of the charming cafes in the square. The vibrant markets, such as the Piscaria, provided a unique shopping experience and the chance to try some of the region's famous street food. The nightlife was unforgettable, with the clubs and bars around the city staying open until the early hours of the morning. We also took a day trip to the nearby Mount Etna, where we hiked to the summit and enjoyed stunning views of the surrounding landscape. Overall, Catania was the perfect destination for a fun and adventurous girls trip, full of great food, beautiful sights, and unforgettable memories.

Q & A

  • What would you have changed?

    We also checked out the public beaches but regretted it immidiately because the other beaches were easier to reach, the water and the beach itself were just better and you can order cocktails, other beverages and food if you want. We also felt safe to leave our stuff on the sunbeds while going into the water together at the private beach.
  • Anything go wrong during the trip?

    nothing
  • Restaurant recommendations?

    We had the most incredible time at Al Vicolo Pizza & Vino. They have pizza that will make you you do an its-so-yummy-dance and Tiramisu that will make you fall in love. Definitely try out the pistachio pizza and tiramisu. For drinks & karaoke check out Pasha Pub. I promise you will have a great time there. You can also enjoy a hookah there.
