Getting from Catania Fontanarossa Airport (CTA) to Syracuse

Catania Airport to Syracuse is a 60 km drive south along the A18 and A19 motorways — approximately 65 minutes. Syracuse (Siracusa) is one of the most historically significant cities in the Mediterranean: founded by Greek colonists in 734 BC, it became the most powerful city-state in the ancient world, home to Archimedes and rivalling Athens. The Neapolis Archaeological Park, with its 5th-century BC Greek theatre and vast Roman amphitheatre, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, as is the Baroque old city on the island of Ortygia. Ortygia is car-restricted and most hotels are accessed on foot from the Foro Italico promenade; your driver drops you at the bridge entrance to the island. The train from Catania to Syracuse takes about 1h 20min and costs €7, but runs infrequently and doesn't connect with airport arrivals. A private transfer is the only direct, flexible option for arriving passengers.
