Super recommended! - Thanks to our expert guide, Fabrizio, who has been able to explain the history that Palermo has gone through from its foundation to today, passing through leaders, nobles, invaders and emperors, we were able to immerse ourselves perfectly in the climate of this beautiful land and city. We didn't get tired of walking at all, despite the fact that the journey was long enough, as they were enraptured by the story and the curiosities told by Fabrizio, a person of great culture and sympathy. I highly recommend the experience especially if you have a few days available so as to concentrate the viewing of multiple attractions in a morning and avoid wasting time looking for roads and areas to visit!

"Sicily" the most beautiful Tour. - As a first time in Palermo I could not find a better guide, Fabrizio a professional person, illustrated the history of Palermo with its monuments in the best way, with historical documents, photographs, explaining in detail everything I saw. An experience that I will carry in my heart was a pleasure. I recommend this tour to those who want to enrich their artistic, cultural and culinary baggage of Palermo. Thank you!
