Learn all about Historical Squares and Architectural Wonders in our Walking Tour of Palermo
Begin your tour at Piazza Quattro Canti, a perfect example of Baroque architecture where the city's two main arteries intersect. This square was notably featured in Wim Wenders' film "Palermo Shooting". Nearby, at Piazza Pretoria, admire a stunning 16th-century fountain originally intended for the Medici family in Florence but later transported and reassembled in Palermo. Your guided tour will also highlight one of Palermo's most beautiful monuments, the Cathedral. Listen to stories about its construction and the overlap of different architectural styles, and admire its southern facade, showcasing Catalan-Gothic style with Arabic influences.

Palermo City Tour: Palatine Chapel and La Martorana
Continue your exploration to the Palace of the Normans, which houses the impressive Palatine Chapel. Opt for add-on tickets to visit the inside and marvel at the Byzantine mosaics set against a golden background. In Piazza Bellini, you can admire the lavish golden interior of La Martorana church, another jewel in Palermo’s rich historical tapestry.

Enjoy Culinary Delights and Market Adventures in our Palermo Tours
No visit to Palermo is complete without experiencing its culinary delights. Wander through the lanes of a typical lively food market, such as Ballarò or Capo, and immerse yourself in an explosion of colours and a mix of scents from fresh products. Conclude your food tour with tastings of typical Sicilian Street food like "sfincione palermitano" (similar to pizza) or "panelle" (chickpea fritters). The cost of food tasting is to be paid locally based on your selection. Our Palermo Sicily walking tours are customizable to suit your preferences, whether you're interested in a historical focus on Arab-Norman architecture, a full-day trip including Monreale, or a half-day food experience.
