Super different view of palermo

A unique insight into different aspects of Palermo and it's cultural history. Violette was knowledgeable, passionate about her subject and happy to answer broad questions about the history stuff but also her personal insights of living there..highly recommended

Brief but very good overview of Palermo

A fantastic free tour of Palermo! It had a very personal feel to it, as the group was small and the guide catered to everyone’s needs. The information was brief, to the point and just right. The insights into the different neighbourhoods off the beaten track were particularly fascinating. We also got some great restaurant recommendations. Highly recommended!
