VISIT THE CITY

The Trapezoidal Pier: The Trapezoidal Pier in the port of Palermo is home to Palermo Marina Yachting, a vast area (30,000 square metres) where you can spend time in total relaxation. In fact, the pier allows you to stroll along the seafront, enjoy delicious dishes in the numerous restaurants and go shopping in the boutiques. The main attraction is undoubtedly the artificial lake with its dancing fountain, considered one of the largest in Italy, which puts on a special show every hour: a display of water jets and lights set to music.

Sailing or Catamaran Trips: Half-day and full-day tours are available, with the option of an aperitif or lunch on board and stops for swimming and snorkelling. The most popular destinations include Mondello, the Capo Gallo Reserve and Isola delle Femmine.

Ape Tour through the city's alleys: thanks to the Ape Tour Palermo service, you will have the opportunity to visit the most fascinating and evocative places that make Palermo unique in the world through the eyes of true Palermitans. The “narrow streets” of the historic centre, churches, monuments, theatres, markets and boutiques in an exclusive tour!

Street Food Tour: discover authentic Palermo street food and taste flavours that are unique in the world: bread with spleen, arancina, cassata, caponata, stigghiole, bread with panelle, bread with crocchè and much more!

Piazza Marina: is located adjacent to the final stretch of Corso Vittorio Emanuele, the ancient Cassaro, a few steps from Porta Felice and the sea. It is one of the most beautiful and characteristic places in Palermo, in the heart of the city and surrounded by a series of historic buildings and monuments of considerable value. In its centre stands Villa Garibaldi, an oasis of peace and tranquillity for all citizens.

The Botanical Garden: just a stone's throw from Villa Giulia and the historic centre, this is a must-see for anyone visiting Palermo. The Botanical Garden of the University of Palermo is one of Italy's most important academic institutions. A huge open-air museum, with over two hundred years of activity that have also allowed it to study and disseminate, in Sicily, Europe and throughout the Mediterranean basin, countless plant species, many of which originate from tropical and subtropical regions. The uniqueness of this Botanical Garden today lies in the great variety of species it hosts, making it a place rich in different expressions of flora.

Sanctuary of Saint Rosalia: The Sanctuary of Saint Rosalia, patron saint of Palermo, known as Santuzza, is an extraordinary church due to its religious significance and unique construction. It is an important place of worship but also one of the city's most evocative monuments. It is impossible to remain indifferent to this church with its truly unique structure. In fact, the church is built close to the cave where Saint Rosalia lived the last eight years of her life, forming a whole with Monte Pellegrino, the sacred mountain of the people of Palermo. It is a moving and breathtaking sight, striking visitors with the power of its religiousness and the architectural ingenuity of its builders. It is an unmissable destination during a holiday in Palermo.

OUTSIDE THE CITY

Monreale: the most charming and important tourist centre in the entire province of Palermo. A dream location, perched like a balcony offering breathtaking views over the Conca d'Oro; a dream thanks to its monumental complex of buildings dominated by the Duomo, an unsurpassed example of stylistic perfection in 12th-century Sicilian art and one of the most important cathedrals in Europe, a monument to the great Arab and Norman traditions and to Byzantine art and architecture.
Cefalù: this charming town, built under an immense cliff, boasts beautiful beaches of fine sand, all bathed by a clear blue sea, one of the most beautiful main squares in Sicily and a Norman cathedral embellished with one of the most sublime images of Christ in Western art.
Erice: this is a small village of a thousand inhabitants, perched on the summit of an isolated mountain, extremely picturesque and a famous resort and tourist destination. On one side are the old salt pans and on the other the last windmills. From its altitude of 700 metres, with its beautiful pine forests and pure air, the view dominates not only Trapani and the Egadi Islands, but also the valleys and, for dozens and dozens of kilometres, the countryside stretching inland. Erice, famous for its almond sweets and marzipan cakes, boasts numerous pastry shops.

San Vito Lo Capo: located on the north-western coast of Sicily, it is one of the most fascinating destinations on the island. With its white sandy beaches, crystal clear waters and rich cultural heritage, this seaside village is a must-see destination.

Borgo Parrini: this is a small hamlet in the municipality of Partinico, in the province of Palermo, known for its colourful houses decorated in the style of Gaudí, which make it a real tourist attraction, easily accessible from Palermo. The village, once inhabited by Jesuit priests (hence the name “Parrini”, which means “priests” in Sicilian), has been restored and transformed into an evocative place thanks to the initiative of local artists and residents. The houses in the village are painted in bright colours and decorated with tiles, mosaics and murals, creating a unique and fairy-tale atmosphere.

Segesta: Due to its historical significance and beautiful natural surroundings, Segesta is the ideal destination for a wonderful day trip from Palermo. You don't need to be a fan of Greek and Roman history to be impressed by Segesta: the ancient ruins of this important archaeological site have a powerful evocative force and a truly evocative charm. Immersed in a natural setting of extraordinary beauty, the Archaeological Park of Segesta features its famous Doric Temple and Hellenistic Amphitheatre.
