Discover Palermo, the capital of Sicily, rich in art, history, and great food.

This city is known as the most conquered city in the world. Countless powerful cultures have held positions in this area, such as the Romans, Greeks, Arabs, Phoenicians and Spaniards, each of which left some type of legacy, still visible in many historical buildings.

You will admire Arab-Norman buildings, golden Byzantine mosaics, Florentine-style fountains, paintings of Velasquez, Caravaggio and many others, all perfectly blended with the noisy, local, everyday life.

You will have the chance to visit a local market and enjoy the typical street food of the area, such as the "arancina" (rice ball with different fillings), the "crocchè" (potato croquette also known as "cazzilli").

As Palermo is mainly a pedestrian friendly city with limited vehicle access, you will enjoy a 4 hour walking tour with a professionally licensed guide.

What should I wear for this tour?

We suggest that you wear comfortable walking shoes as there is quite a bit of walking involved on uneven surfaces.

What happens if our cruise ship is unable to dock at the originally designated port?

If the cruise ship doesn't dock due to any circumstance out of your control, you will not be charged and we will try to re-schedule your service according to availability. If your cruise ship docks in a different port, for example Naples Port instead of Sorrento Port, we will change the pick up location, however there will be a fee associated with the change of port.

What should I wear if I want to visit some religious sites?

If you intend to visit religious sites, please have knees and shoulders covered (both men and women).

Is this tour accessible for people with limited walking abilities?

The itinerary can certainly be customised according to your needs, but please note that some areas may not be accessible with a stroller/wheelchair or for people with limited walking abilities.

Which pickup time do you suggest from the port?

We suggest that you set an early pickup time, 7:30 am (in accordance with your ship's in port hours), in order for you to avoid the local rush hour traffic and have more time to enjoy your service to the fullest.

What is your back to port policy?

We have a back to port policy of at least 1 hour prior to the last scheduled boarding time for the ship.

Is this tour suitable for people with limited walking abilities?

Due to the uneven surfaces in some areas, this service may not be suitable for stroller/wheelchair users or for people with limited walking abilities.
