Italy

An ancient port city vibrant with life and soaked in culture, Catania deserves to be experienced to its fullest in one of our premium rental cars. Breathtaking architecture, a volcano, unparalleled seafood—there is so much to savor, and you can do it on your own terms with your car rental in Catania.

Once your plane lands, step into the SIXT branch at Catania-Fontanarossa Airport (CTA). Our friendly staff will guide you through our hassle-free check-in process so you can begin your Sicilian adventure worry-free.

In your Catania rental car from SIXT, you can enjoy Sicily your way. To make your trip as wonderful as possible, keep the following in mind:

- Taking pictures from the car: Avoid snapping photos of the breathtaking scenery while driving. The Autostrada and many smaller roads have safe spots where you can pull over.

- Speed cameras: Sicily has speed cameras throughout the isle, so adhere to all posted speed limits.

- Local drivers: Sicilian drivers can be assertive, so drive cautiously, especially at intersections, as turning without signaling is relatively common in Sicily.

When you secure your car rental in Catania from SIXT, you have the freedom and flexibility to visit some amazing sites:

- Piazza del Duomo: In the heart of Catania, this central square features the symbol of the city, The Elephant—a statue, fountain, and obelisk. You can also see the opulent St. Agnes Cathedral, the teeming daily fish market, the majestic seat of government, and much more.

- Mt. Etna: About a 50-minute drive from Catania, Mt. Etna is Europe’s highest and most active volcano. You can hike and explore on your own, or get even more adventurous with a guided, licensed tour into the volcano’s center.

- The Monastery of San Nicolò l’Arena: Explore the vast, serene gardens and absorb the awe-inspiring architecture. You can even take a guided tour in English.

Good experience. Assurance was suggested with a bit of fear mongering but in li(e with our expectations and not pushed that hard anyway.As a couple we rented a fiat 500 whicgh was perfect for our every need (smalj is better in Sicily).The return was quick and the employee (Francesco I believe) was polite and nice.Points to improve : general to six I believe, you dont see what you sign and it's pretty annoying, you must sign on a tablet yet cant read the contract beforehand, you must sign on the return yet cant be sure whether you're signing on a returning a beatup car or perfect car.

I had a terrible experience with a competing rental agency. I went to the Sixt desk and Olga immediately assisted me with a rental for my international vacation. She was kind and sympathetic and offered to upgrade my rental to something safer and more comfortable at the same rate as a compact vehicle. The process took less than 5 minutes and I was on the road to enjoy my vacation. Pick up and return were a breeze and I can safely say that Sixt saved my vacation from absolute disaster. Thank you a million times over!

Had an excellent experience from Lorena at sixt Catania Airport. She was a massive help when we were let down by another car rental firm and did everything she could to help us get a rental sorted which we have just returned with no extra charges.
