Why travel from Catania-Fontanarossa Airport to Syracuse
Syracuse was once the greatest Greek city in the west, and the sense of history is immediate. This Catania Airport to Syracuse private transfer places you in a car and lets the motorway do the work, so you arrive ready for the Greek theatre, the Ear of Dionysius and the honeyed stone lanes of Ortigia. Sedans suit couples, while minivans fit families with strollers and suitcases. The fare is set per vehicle and paid to the driver, so a family or a group of friends shares one price rather than buying individual tickets.
- Ortigia's seafront promenade, Fountain of Arethusa and the baroque Piazza Duomo
- Neapolis Archaeological Park, with its Greek theatre and the Ear of Dionysius quarry
- Ortigia market stalls and cafes serving fresh seafood and granita
