From the classical era to the eighteenth century, among religious buildings and burials, grandiose Roman monuments and underground rivers, popular legends and historical documents ... A fascinating itinerary to retrace all the eras of the Etna city. The traces of a Catania of the past that continues to live under our feet, hidden from our eyes

Extremely interesting visit which allowed us to discover an unknown Catania and its history through underground stratigraphic analysis. Oreste, our very good, super competent and very friendly guide, led us on this journey full of information and history. Super recommended I would say not to be missed!!!

Our guide was prompt and well prepared. This was a fantastic way to learn more about Catania's interesting history! We would recommend this tour for anyone who would like to understand more about the influence of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions on this Sicilian city.

Very interesting tour with Mathilde. Covered parts of Catania that we did not know about and would not have found on our own. She was very knowledgeable and really explained things about the city and the 17c volcanic eruption and earthquake.

I recommend the underground tour to all those who stop, even if only for a short time, in Catania.
They are fascinating and are found in the most unexpected places.
Unfortunately I have to point out that all the sites are accessible via quite steep steps, so if you have difficulty walking it could be a problem.

Wonderful tour of the underground sites of Catania! We really enjoyed an interesting tour with Matilda. She took us around the city and underground giving an excellent history of the city, the affects of past volcanic eruptions and how the people have adapted to living so close to a constantly evolving landscape. Some of the underground locations were in surprisingly interesting places; for example entering a local restaurant/bar to see a grotto with fresh running water! Highly recommend this tour!
