Palermo with an Art Historian

This is a tour you don't want to miss. When you have small-time in town, quality is essential! I am an art historian and PhD researcher in public archeology, glad to share with you my expertise about the history of Sicily. A visit with an expert is highly recommended for the huge number of UNESCO sites and the complexity of the architecture of Palermo, one of the oldest and astonishing cities in the Mediterranean. In this tour, we'll pass through alleys, palaces and talk about history, architecture, ancient legends, urban stories, culture and traditions. I will take you on an amazing walk from Teatro Massimo through the heart of the food market, "Il Capo". We'll visit the Norman Cathedral, the most important highlights in the historical center, such as Piazza Pretoria, I Quattro Canti, two of the most ancient churches (Martorana and San Cataldo), but also the Baroque Cloister of Santa Catarina's nuns, with its hidden pastry!
