Guided tour of Marsala in the footsteps of Garibaldi: a journey through history

Sicily



A simple and engaging journey through the symbolic places of the landing of the Thousand and the Italian Risorgimento, in the heart of Marsala.

Highlights

  • Walk in the exact places where the Thousand led by Garibaldi landed.
  • Discover Marsala through a simple and accessible urban trek.
  • Experience the history of the Risorgimento right where the events happened.

Description

Our urban trek starts from the port of Marsala, the very spot where the Thousand led by Giuseppe Garibaldi landed on May 11, 1860. This is where one of the most decisive chapters of the Italian Risorgimento began, and today we relive those moments by following the traces of history step by step. The route is designed for those who love to discover a city by walking, calmly, letting the streets and squares tell the story. We'll pass through ancient gates, lively squares, symbolic monuments, and lesser-known corners of Marsala, perfect for an urban trek that alternates iconic places with hidden details.
