Description

You who are eager to visit Palermo with little time available, join our tour and you will understand the spirit of this city smelling of oranges and lemons at your pace, with the time you have available! The fundamental stages of our tour will be: The elegant Teatro Massimo, to which the history of the Florio family is linked, the most famous shipowners and industrialists in Italy between the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The imposing Arab-Norman cathedral dedicated to Santa Maria Assunta, with the relics of Santa Rosalia, the Patron Saint of Palermo, greatly adored by the people of Palermo. The Quattro Canti, a mysterious place, where the lives of those condemned to death ended. This square is considered the ideal center of Palermo and in each corner there is a fountain with a seventeenth-century statue. The Fountain of Shame, one of the largest and most monumental fountains in Europe, built in Florence in the sixteenth century and then shipped to Palermo in 622 pieces Capo, a market famous in the world for its flavours, smells, the shouts of the merchants and for the amazing typical local products: fresh baked vegetables, panelle, crocchè, quarume (veal entrails), sandwich with meuza (spleen), arancini, cannoli and everything else that is part of the Sicilian gastronomic tradition! Our guide will still show you external noble palaces, churches, catacombs and will show you how to access them independently at the end of the tour, if you have time and desire for some in-depth information. We await you in Palermo with joy, don't miss it!
