Overview of your Palermo tour:

Live Palermo like one of his citizens! I am a local and passionate, officially licensed tour guide, and I want to show you how we live, woven into history and art. From prehistory till the Second World War, Palermo has lived so many lives, each leaving a strong print in this city. Phoenicians, Romans, Byzantines, Arabs, Normans, Spaniards and many more left a trace in architecture and art. After this tour, you will discover and understand what happened in the Mediterranean Sea through the ages. Can you guess that in just a couple of hours you may see all the different civilizations that lived in the Old World? During a smooth walk inside the city center we will see 2700-year-old Phoenicians walls, 2000-year-old roman villas, 1300-year-old Muslim decorations, 900-year-old Norman and byzantine mosaics, 500-year-old baroque churches, 70-year-old world war witnesses and so on. . . Welcome to Palermo and Sicily!
