Sicily's Capital Palermo

If you want to get a feel for Sicily’s capital, this tour is great. Not only will you get the inside scoop from a guide, you’ll also get chance to explore under your own steam. Thanks to its turbulent history, Palermo is like an open-air museum, brimming with architecture which hints at its time under Phoenician, Greek, Roman and Arabic rule. After a panoramic bus tour of the city and a guided walk around the historic Ballaro market, you’ll have a couple of hours of free time. Grab a plate of spaghetti from one of the restaurants or stop for an espresso in a piazza-side café.
