Het is de meest traditionele en populaire oude voedselmarkt van Palermo. Hier vind je de typische Siciliaanse groenten, fruit en vis.
Het is het grootste operagebouw in Italië, het derde in Europa. Het werd gebouwd in 1875 en de geschiedenis is rijk aan legendes.
De kathedraal, de prachtige Arabisch-Normandische kathedraal van Palermo, die werd opgenomen in de UNESCO-lijst van werelderfgoederen. Je zult het ook binnenin zien.
Officieel bekend als Piazza Vigliena, is een barok plein. Het werd gebouwd tijdens de XVII eeuw op de kruising van de twee belangrijkste straten in Palermo, de Via Maqueda en de Corso Vittorio Emanuele.
Het is een monumentale fontein van Palermo. Het ligt in het hart van het historische centrum en is de belangrijkste bezienswaardigheid van Piazza Pretoria. De fontein werd gebouwd in 1574 in Palermo.
De kerk wordt gekenmerkt door de veelheid aan stijlen die elkaar ontmoeten, omdat deze met de opeenvolging van eeuwen werd verrijkt met verschillende andere smaken in kunst, architectuur en cultuur. De nonnen van de Martorana waren beroemd om hun gegoten marsepein, die ze maakten in de vorm van verschillende soorten fruit. Hoewel het klooster niet meer bestaat, zijn de frutta di Martorana nog steeds een van de beroemdste en meest opvallende levensmiddelen van Palermo.
De kerk van San Cataldo werd gebouwd in de XII eeuw. Is beroemd om de drie rode koepels.

Guided tour on 18.04.26 at 10:30. Very competent guide with extensive knowledge of history and culture, brought the information very lively and exciting. It wasn't just me who was thrilled. We'll be back!
Thank you
Aug 12, 2025 In the center of the city, hand made pasta and just ok, however don’t expect anything else. On top of that, nonsense and disrespectful service .
Please sir/madam, Remove your review. You never participated to my tours.
I had the pleasure of visiting Crafters in Dullstroom and indulging in their Monday lunch special – Smoked Chicken Pappardelle – and what an absolute culinary dream it was! The pasta was rich, flavourful, and beautifully balanced, making it one of the most memorable meals I’ve had in a long time. The atmosphere at Crafters is warm and welcoming, with a relaxed charm that makes you want to linger a little longer. The service was equally impressive – friendly, attentive, and professional without being intrusive. If you find yourself in Dullstroom, I’d highly recommend adding Crafters to your list. Whether you're a foodie or just in search of a great meal in a lovely setting, this spot will not disappoint!
It was so nice staying at Nyikani tented camps both in Tarangire and Serengeti National parks. The Staff were so good and very caring, enjoyed delicious meals, the tents were extremely clean and each tent had a nice view of the park. Thank you guys for the great service while we stayed at your Camps. Lydia from Uganda.
We were residents of the Residence Inn on Center Street in Rochester, MN for 70 days. My husband received cancer treatment at the Mayo Clinic. The employees at the Residence Inn are super people. To name a few we became friends with include Ashley MC at the front desk. She was always pleasant, happy, and willing to help us with whatever we needed. Genaeva, of the cleaning staff was thorough with all that she did, and happy to do the work. We enjoyed breakfast prepared by Cheryl. She had it ready at an early hour, serving a variety of breakfast fare. She always greeted us when we came, like old friends do. All in all, our stay at the Residence Inn was comfortable, we met nice people, and we would seriously consider coming back.
From Ballarò to Teatro Massimo discovering the most famous places but also many less popular but always interesting curiosities and sites. Fabrizio was a guide prepared and ready to answer all our questions. Nice experience that I recommend without hesitation.
Grazie.
We had a great time on the Market and Monuments tour. Fabrizo was great - very knowledgeable yet also knew the right amount of detail to provide. The tour was 1.5-2 hours of Il Capo market and 1-1.5 hours of 'monuments' - Cathedral, Quatro Canti, etc. I probably would like a bit more monuments, my wife a bit more market - so probably the right mix! Highly recommended.
After a work trip to Sciacca, I was able to fit in 2 1/2 days of sightseeing in Palermo. Key to getting my bearings, finding my way around Palermo and figuring out where I wanted to spend more time exploring was this walking tour that also included a great selection of Sicilian street food snacks. The Capo Market visit was great, very colorful, and tasty! Our guide Fabrizio is a Palermo native which was nice bonus. We got some Palermo slang vocabulary lessons in addition to the history of the area, and the food. Tips for people considering this tour: plan to arrive hungry, and don't book a meal immediately afterward. This afternoon tour was my lunch. Carry wet hand wipes to help tidy up between stops. Wear comfortable shoes - lots of walking around the historic center area of Palermo. There are a few tops along the way with seats to rest which was a good thing as it got hot/sunny in the afternoon.
Visit to the center of Palermo with Maurizio to guide us. We learned everything that we don't read in tourist guides, in particular we learned to "live" Palermo taking into account its history, its architecture, its merits, and its problems. And a good extra because that very day (April 25th) I was semi-injured, but Maurizio made sure to wait for me given my limited walking.
Traveling tour with Maurizio. Very prepared and patient. He explained everything to us by making historical digressions, but without leaving the Sicilian current affairs of the moment. Highly recommended. We also thank Fabrizio for the advice on other activities that we wanted to explore further. Monica from Bologna
