Palermo UNESCO & Heritage Walking Tour with Dessert Tasting

About this activity

Palermo, the largest city in Sicily, boasts numerous cultural and historical treasures, including 8 UNESCO sites. This small group walking tour offers a comprehensive view of the city's highlights, guided by a knowledgeable local expert. The journey covers Palermo's UNESCO-listed Norman-Arab and Baroque architecture, including a visit to Piazza Pretoria, humorously dubbed the "Square of Shame" due to its nude statues. The tour also includes an external view of the Sicilian Royal Palace, Europe's oldest royal residence, and the stunning Palatine Chapel. The Martorana Church, praised in the 12th century as the most beautiful monument, and Palermo Cathedral, a symbol of the city's diverse religious history, are also featured. The tour concludes with a taste of a delightful local delicacy
