Overview
Discover the real Palermo on a private walking tour built around you, not a fixed itinerary. With your own expert local host, you'll explore the historic centre at your pace, following your interests: history, street food, architecture, markets, or all of it if you wish.
Maybe start among the stalls of a centuries-old street market, where vendors still shout their 'abbanniate' as they have for a thousand years. Walk through layers of Arab, Norman, Spanish and Baroque history at the Cathedral, or visit the Quattro Canti crossroads, and Piazza Pretoria's famous 'Fountain of Shame'.
Pass the Teatro Massimo, Europe's third-largest opera house, and slip into side streets most visitors never find. The choice is yours!
Because this tour is private, everything adapts to the group. After booking, the you can tell the guide what you are most interested in, history, food, markets, architecture, photography, the tour will be adapted accordingly while keeping all the main highlights. Travelling with kids? We keep it light and fun. The host adjusts the route, rhythm and stories in real time.
This is Palermo told by people who live it, with the context, contradictions and character that make this city unlike anywhere else in Italy.
