That depends largely on where you’ll be wandering. Downtown Catania, about 2 miles from Catania Airport (CTA-Fontanarossa), can be a bit tricky to drive around. Make life easier by choosing something compact, fuel-efficient, and a breeze to handle. Having said that, Catania is an excellent base to explore some of the cliffs in Sicily. If your getaway is more about cruising down highways, then you may prefer something with a little more comfort and legroom. How about a full-size car or a standard SUV?
