I'm a licenzed tour leader who has been doing this work for more than ten years all over Sicily. I attended the University where I studied history, archeology, art and folk traditions. I have travelled extensively in Sicily knowing most of the cultural heritage, this is the reason why I have chosen as a goal in my life to spread the sicilian culture, which is among the richest in Italy. For that reason I created a cultural association that is involved in promoting events and in the urban redevelopment of an area of the Palermo's city rich in cultivation in an effort to develop turistic activities. What should be a tour for me? First of all great kindness for customers and great passion in telling the various aspects of the sicilian culture, in addition the desire to create real human contact with guests trying to be a storyteller to get them deeply in to the local mindset.

Overview of your Palermo tour

Discovering Cefalù and its territory is an opportunity to see a unique part of Sicily. Perched between the sea and the Madonie Mountains, it rises beneath a rock of rare beauty that conceals ruins of a remote past. The city is among the most visited places in Sicily for the splendid sea and history, it developed in the Middle Ages thanks to the Norman people who built the cathedral, which is in a UNESCO heritage site, in the Arab-Norman style and the settlement. The town is also famous for its excellent restaurants equipped with terraces overlooking the sea, where you can eat excellent fish. A short distance away in the town of Castelbuono there is an opportunity to see an ancient Sicily made of narrow streets, monuments such as the medieval castle and the flavors of food produced by local companies very famous throughout Sicily. I have been walking these places since I was a boy, and I am sure you will see a fascinating face of Sicily.

YES, Stefano Cinà merits the highest, best marks as a guide, driver and super-skilled history expert. Loved our exploring and learning so much about these amazing parts of Sicily. This was our first day before starting a multi-day group tour with Globus. Stefano's sharing of background about Sicily, Palermo, the Mafia, etc., all set the stage for a highly-enjoyable trip. His enthusiasm and spirit added to the enjoyment. on a one to ten scale, Stefano gains a twelve as the tops!! For many visuals on our one-day tour, plus more later all over Sicily, you can check out this highly-detailed blog on Cruise Critic at: https://boards.cruisecritic.com/topic/3107126-sicily-semi-live-visuals-highlights-options-terryohio/

Stefano was the best Private Tour Guide we have ever had! He customized this tour for me & my husband to visit the town where my grandparents were born. Stefano not only took us to this town & found the church where my grandparents were married but gave us history of the town & the entire Palermo area. He will research your desired travel goals prior to your tour. We highly recommend Stefano as a Private Tour Guide!!

This tour was perfect for an older active couple. Stefano managed to show us so much in one day. He is a real local and knows the ins and outs of all the roads to avoid traffic and save time. He also had so many unique special places to show us and interesting stories and historical facts to share. Truly knowledgeable and his Sicilian pride is very evident. We highly recommend Stefano.
