How to get from Catania Airport to the city?
You have just gotten off the plane, rented a car, and you want to drive from Catania Airport to the city center - you can count on an easy trip, because the distance between them is only 6 kilometers to the north, which you will cover in 10-15 minutes (depending on traffic intensity).
Starting from the parking lot, head northeast to get on Via S. Giuseppe Alla Rena. Drive parallel to the seashore for 1 kilometer, and then turn left, deeper into the mainland, to cross the bridge over the railway tracks and turn onto Via Acquicella. After reaching Piazza Palestro, turn right and continue winding through the narrow streets in a northeast direction. With about 5 minutes of such maneuvers you will arrive at the city center crowned with the beautiful Villa Bellini park area. But note: whichever route you take to the city center, you will face toll roads, which can lead to extra expenses during your drive!
The same taxi ride will cost you about €13 if the cab driver takes the shortest route. For comparison, renting a car costs at least €10 per day. Considering that you can make dozens of similar trips in a day, driving a car seems like a more budget-friendly option, especially if you're expecting a massive sightseeing experience!
Catania Airport to Syracuse with a rental car
Whether you want to get to Syracuse, or from Syracuse to Catania Airport, your route lies along the picturesque coast of the Ionian Sea. From CTA Airport, head southwest to join the E45 highway at Fontanarossa and continue south. If you want to catch the enchanting views of the blue abyss and capture some stunning photos, stop by the beach of the Sbarcatore Turks. Then, continue driving, following the signs, to arrive at your destination. The entire journey takes 40-45 minutes without stopping, and the distance covered is 60 kilometers.
How to get from Catania Airport to Taormina by car?
Located north of the CTA Airport, Taormina is a cozy hilltop town that offers mind-blowing views of Etna and immerses you in a true Sicilian vibe. To get there with a rental car, take the E45 north by turning right near Bicocca. The 70-kilometer-long journey takes in the ongoing mountainous landscapes of Etna National Park and lasts no more than 50 minutes in normal traffic levels. The same transfer or a reverse one - from Taormina to Catania Airport - will cost you about €100 by taxi, which is much more expensive than the cost of renting a car.
