Sightseeing/City Tour Archaeological/Cultural

Overview

From Palermo port, you are whisked away to the charming coastal town of Cefalù. Known for its massive Norman Cathedral and its picturesque seaside cliffs, this little town gives you a beautiful glimpse into life on the Sicilian coast. You'll tour the Cathedral, which contains some of the best-preserved Byzantine mosaics in all the Mediterranean region!

Returning to Palermo, you'll visit the charming Piazza Pretoria, a beautiful square with some wonderfully ornate fountains. Of course, no trip to Palermo would be complete without experiencing the "Four Corners". This intersection is the traditional center of Palermo, and it perfectly captures the essence of this ancient city. Surrounded by 500-year-old Baroque palaces left over from the heyday of Spanish rule, this intersection is one of the most famous in all Sicily.

After getting in some essential sightseeing, your guide will point you towards Palermo's best shopping districts. Grab a cappuccino, eat some pizza, and stroll through its antiquated streets before returning to port.

This tour is suitable for hotel guests and includes pick up and drop off at your hotel.
