Trip to Taormina was great. Ampitheater is cool and the views are the best in Sicily. They have many shops on the way up and down also. Another great place where we did not get nearly enough time.

About Catania, Sicily
Steep, rugged Sicily had bred a race of fierce, funny and passionate people. From this important port, drive up the coast to visit Taormina. First Greeks, then Romans used this as a place of worship and reward. View the temples and the theater, Mt. Etna in the distance, or take a stroll and shop in the little village before you leave.

Went on the Hop on Hop off bus. It was great, walked around town a bit also. We weren't able to get to Mount Vesuvius but had a beautiful view from the ship.

we were suposed to arive at 12pm, instead we got there at 5:30pm. All there is to do is shop unless you pay big bucks for an excursion.

Mt. Etna was great but Catania as a port was quite a bore, but maybe since we went during August when most locals were out on vacation themselves.

Was on Hop On Hop Off bus and were caught in a thunderstorm where we were soaked so didn't get a chance to see much of Catania.
