Palermo y Monreale

Booked at the Grand Palladium excellent resort review to follow . Through Jet 2 rep on sight . "Meet at main gate 745" we were told turned up 825 . This meant a whole catalogue of comments . Firstly could have had 15 mins more in bed Secondly as breakfast is open from 7 we could have avoided the cold continental choice we had to have as an early breakfast. Thirdly As we were late into Palermo by almost an hour now the traffic was then a lot worse . Fourthly. This the forced our guide to rush the city catacombs tour also the city walking tour to________ Fifthly Then take us for late by the way to our street food tasting experience. Which quite frankly was a selection of cold over cooked fried mush . We were then told to move along as a party that was also arriving and were allowed to sit down needed our space , standing space i hasten to add !! .Commentary over inadequate communication devices meant with a party of 75 !!!. Important information like return times meeting places were missed and had to be asked by customers waiting in a queue to speak to an apathetic guide who appeared to just wanted to go home . Which bring me to my final point our return time bearing in mind we ended up "losing " an hour and a quarter of our tour today was almost to the minute as scheduled. Do not book this through Jet 2 at the hotel use other outside suppliers . This we understand is organised by a German company for Jet 2 i rang them no reply emailed them no reply . Perhaps that need looking into as well . Palermo is worth the visit but pick your provider and avoid Jet 2 as the supplier. Feel strongly as 120 euros should provide you with an prompt enjoyable stress free day out . Have done probably now in excess of 50 guided tours and this was without doubt the worst
