Description
Immerse yourself in Palermo's most poetic soul with this exclusive walking tour, where sea breezes intertwine with the words of the great masters of literature. This experience will guide you along the coast, revealing the sights and landings that have enchanted writers of every era. You will not be a mere tourist, but a time traveler: imagine observing the promontory of Monte Pellegrino with the same awe described by J.W. Goethe in his Journey to Italy, or breathing in the noble and decadent atmosphere narrated by Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa in The Leopard. Passing through evocative alleys, you will listen to passages read live that evoke the piercing voices of Leonardo Sciascia or the impressions of illustrious travelers like Oscar Wilde. Between the scent of salt air and the sound of the waves, the city is transformed into an open book. A perfect opportunity for those who love 'slow' culture: slow your pace, listen to the eternal dialogue between the city and the Mediterranean and discover Palermo through the eyes of those who loved and wrote it.Includes
