Palermo captivates us every time in a different way.
It is a city that knows how to be both chaotic and delicate in the same breath: you’ll get lost among the voices of the Ballarò Market, among the fish, fruit, and spice stalls that seem to have been there forever, and just a moment later you’ll find yourself sitting at a little table in front of the Cathedral, enjoying a plate of local street food while the sun warms the ancient stones.
We’ll walk together through its charming narrow streets, let ourselves be tempted by the historic little shops, and step inside the Cathedral, one of the world’s most fascinating examples of Arab-Norman architecture.
From there, we’ll make our way up to Monreale to admire the golden mosaics of its Cathedral, another breathtaking masterpiece and we’ll stop at the Sanctuary of Santa Rosalia on Mount Pellegrino, where the city’s patron saint holds a story of faith that Palermo’s people have carried in their hearts for centuries.
