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

I spent all my life living in Palermo, the capital of Sicily, so I know every single feature of it and it will be a pleasure to show you the most important places but also the hidden aspects in a natural beautiful landscape and with the well known Mediterranean hospitality. Choosing this itinerary with me could be a unique experience of sharing the history and culture of one of the most fascinating places in Italy. This city shows the link between a long history, which began in the 8th century B:C, mysteries and legends such as the Mafia and the characteristics of a typical Mediterranean city where flavours, smells, colours bring to life the narratives of the " one Thousand and one Nights". So I invite you to experience an unforgettable stay and as a witness I quote the words of the poet Goethe in his stay in Palermo " those things I have seen I will not forget them for a lifetime.”

Our tour with Stefano was superb. He was extremely knowledgeable and made the history of Palermo come alive. He was very attentive and ensured we saw all the sights without hurrying us along. He made time to take a mid-tour break with some nice Palermo pastries as well. We cannot thank Stefano enough for his time and what he was able to show and explain to us. If you are looking to have a tour of Palermo, just book the tour with Stefano. He is wonderful! You will learn so much while having a great time.

We had a wonderful tour of Palermo, Sicily, with Stefano on April 30, 2026. His knowledge of his hometown and his enthusiasm, detailed itinerary, and paying attention to details were fantastic! He always replied promptly to questions during the planning of our visit to Palermo and also helped out with dinner reservations. Could not have found a better guide than Stefano - outstanding!!

Stefano was outstanding. He was a fount of knowledge about the rich history of Palermo and Sicily and the waves of invaders and conquerors. He tailored the tour for a special shopping request and worked very hard to fulfill it. We also learned a huge amount about the current day situation of Italy. More than other guides we’ve had, he also wanted to hear our views about issues, and the resulting conversation was amazing. Thank you Stefano!

Stefano was a perfect guide. His limitless knowledge of Sicily’s history, architecture and geology enhanced our experience. Stefano stuctured our day to our interests with even going above and beyond to help us recover lost luggage from the airport. Stefano is a kind, polite, and enthusiastic guide. I would recommend him to anyone considering a trip to Sicily; you could not do better.

Stephano was extremely engaging and knowledgeable. He showed us several sights in Palermo. He went out of his way to book lunch for us and even listened to a request I had to purchase some local olive oil to take back home. The experience was well worth the cost and we highly recommend using him if you want a custom tour in Palermo!

Stefano was probably the best guide we have ever had. He picked us up at the cruise terminal and drove us through town, tremendous traffic, all the way up to Monreale. He completely customized our tour to whatever we wanted to do and was very knowledgeable about Palermo and the history of Sicily.. I highly recommend Stefano!!!
