I hold a degree in architecture from the University of Palermo. After my graduation, I moved to the United States where I attended a course in Interior Design at the New York School of Visual Arts. After many years in Boston and New York where I worked for several architectural firms, I have returned to Sicily, my native land, and now lead cultural tours in Palermo and beyond. My walks are infused with my interests in architecture and the history of arts. I am a licensed guide leading private tours for small groups willing to really understand the places they visit. I am very passionate about my island, I share my knowledge with travellers by arranging cultural tours with an emphasis on history, art, archaeology, architecture, gastronomy, nature, or a blend of the above. I have helped hundreds of travellers discover and understand the masterpieces left by nature and the different civilizations that have made Sicily their home during the last three millennia. My aim isn't to merely 'inform' travellers about social and historical facts, my tours are interactive and stimulating physically and mentally. I plan them with great care and adjust them continuously. These are few itinerary ideas. Every tour with me is fully customized, personalized to your interests. Contact me to begin planning your day tour or shore excursions. Degree in architecture. Professional License/Certificate. Tour Guide Experience: 20 year(s) I am not a driver. I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver.

    We had an amazing day with Cetty! She is so knowledgeable and we learned so much about the history of Palermo. Cetty was very intuitive to the group and made sure we saw everything we were interested in. Even before meeting her, Cetty gave us dinner recommendations that were much appreciated. Highly recommend booking a tour with Cetty, you won't regret it!

    Wonderful and very helpful tour. On our first visit to Palermo Cetty really helped us understand some of how Palermo and Sicily developed. The history and architecture are so interwoven and we really learned the history thru the architecture. We appreciated her smooth negotiating thru the heart of the city. Steering us thru the food market with tips on which stalls to...
