Fascinating palace tour.
Superb tour! Andrea takes you on a journey through the history of Sicily with enthusiasm and humor. The palace is magnificent and well-maintained. A must-see in Palermo!

Beautiful Palazzo Conte Federico
Absolutely fantastic experience, being guided around a beautiful palazzo by a family member, brings it to life. Stunningly beautiful and very historic, with charming and witty stories throughout. I would highly recommend and would definitely return

This was a very interesting tour indeed! Amusing at times too. A member of the family does the tours and he was charming, interesting and funny. We loved it and would recommend it without hesitation.

Palazzo.Conte Federico excels
Wonderful, educational and humerous tour. A true delight. Probably the high spot of tours so far.
P
Life in the Palazzo
We were greeted at the entrance to the Palazzo and purchased tickets. The venue was easy to find and the personally guided tour started on time. We were lucky to have the Conte’s son Andrea as our guide and he was delightful. Our group was small with only around 12-15 people which was great. The experience was fantastic, with an excellent look into the life of this noble family and the Palazzo’s history from the 12th century. It was wonderful to get such a candid account. The rooms in the Palazzo were full of history and precious objects. Over an hour we glimpsed life as it has been for centuries. Highly recommended!

A MUST-SEE
A magnificent palazzo, the tour was led by Andrea, one of the count's sons, superb rooms that are still furnished. The tour lasts 1 hour in Italian or English, too bad there is no information in French
