Experience the best of
Palermo with Withlocals

"My tour of the Kalsa quarter with Salvatore was perfecto! I have been to Palermo many times and feel I am a bit more knowledgeable than the average tourist about the history of Palermo and Sicily. Yet this was my first time exploring Kalsa. You can tell Salvatore has a passion for his city and was very knowledgeable about the area we walked through. I was able to learn many new things about the history of the Kalsa and have a list of places to go back and explore on my own. I recommend this tour with Salvatore if you want to get away from the crush of the main Palermo sights and see a side that the locals experience, while learning how the city developed and expanded throughout the centuries. "

"Our tour with Fabio was the best way to start our stay in Palermo. The pace of the tour was perfect for us, and we learned a lot that you wouldn’t learn unless you had a guide. We would definitely book Fabio for another tour!"

"We had an absolute great afternoon in beautiful (and delicious) Palermo. Dario really knows the good places to go, tells interesting stories about the city on the side and gives great recommendations. 10/10 can recommend!"

"Thoroughly recommend. Karolina is lovely and this tour was a great way to start our trip "

"Fabio was very patient as we got lost to meet him. Enjoyed the tour, saw the highlights and enjoyed his knowledge of the Historical District. Very helpful as being able to navigate the area going forward. Many thanks Fabio."

"We had the most wonderful time walking around the back streets enjoying some drinks and nibbles along the way. Salvatore is a very sympatico guy with great knowledge of the history of Napoli. I would recommend this tour to everyone "

"We were on a cruise and looking for just an overview of Palermo without a 3 -4 hour indepth guide. This kick start tour was very good and was exacetly what we were looking for: a snapshop of Palermo and its history and culture. We learned a lot, walked by a lot of places - Fabio made recommendations of things to go into if we had time after the tour - and the only negativre was that he did not let us know that most placdes closed from 2-4+pm for afternoon siesta. This is important as we would have timed our tour with him to be during Siesta period and walked around to see the artisans and stores prior to his tour. "

"Dario was an amazing tour guide! We did the 10 Tastings tour along with our small baby, and he was super patient throughout. He showed us some real gems that we never would have found by ourselves. He explained a lot about Sicilian culture and customs that we found truly interesting. Thank you, Dario, for a wonderful tour!"

"Salvatore was a fantastic host, who fully adapted our interests into the tour. He seems to have a huge knowledge of Palermos history and specials and can easily share those in a very sympathic and open way. Especially the contact before the tour, asking for our expectations was highly appreciated! It was interesting and fun to be your guest, thanks again! "

"Michelangelo was super responsive before our appointment, and he was on time when we met, and incredibly easy, friendly, knowledgeable. He seems to know how to meet people at their level and communicates easily and in a very open way. He provided a comprehensive overview of Palermo that laid the groundwork for our own independent explorations to follow. Highly recommended."
