Half Day Palermo Art Tour in five masterpieces

Ciao, I'm Gaetano an authentic Sicilian. I was born in a small town in the heart of Sicily, studied foreign languages at the Univeristy of Catania (east coast of Sicily) and moved to Palermo (west coast) 21 years ago. This enabled me to live, study and understand the island in all its aspects as Sicily is much more than an island, it's a continent. And that's exactly what I like to share with my guests: the many different layers of an unbelievable island full of history, art, excellent food, amazing wine and friendly people. For several years I have also tried to make people fall in love with Sicily by giving lectures on Sicilian history and culture abroad, in high schools and universities. Palermo, the city where I have chosen to live and give tours can easily summerize 3 thousand years of history: it has the elegance of Paris in certain quarters, it is as colorful as Marrakech in its arab markets, exaggerated and rich in its Spanish baroque architecture and unbelievably modern in its huge murals. Being an historian in spirit and a great story teller (this I owe to my grandpa), I love to share with my guests the major events that made Sicily the rich and beautiful island that it is today, but also the minor events and even the little gossips, if not funny local stories that will make everything at the end look more real and authentic. Finally, being a wine and food lover I will always find an excuse to tempt you with the most delicious delicacies that the island can offer. Are you ready to have a great time in one of the most incredible place in the world? Sicily is very well known for its hospitality so please be my guests!
