Enjoy this tour from Palermo. Meet your driver at any address in Palermo and leave for a unique experience. The tour starts with Monreale, the famous Arab-Norman village. Located on the Rocca Di Monreale, from here you can also admire the entire Conca d'Oro. The main attraction is its Duomo, an architectural masterpiece of the Norman age, in which expressions of Islamic, Byzantine and Romanesque culture combine to create one of the highest creations of the Italian Middle Ages. Then we will head towards Bagheria, nicknamed by many the City of Villas. Bagheria has a large number of wonderful villas, all built in typical Baroque architecture. The last, but not least, is Cefalù, a city with a thousand-year history behind it, but with a mainly medieval imprint. In Cefalù you have to get lost in its narrow streets of the historic center, discovering beautiful places, medieval churches, historic buildings, walking along Corso Ruggero, the main street.

    You will be dropped off by your driver in Piazza Guglielmo II. Here you can visit the beautiful cathedral of Monreale. It has been included in the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites and is considered one of the most important medieval churches in the world.  The mosaics of the cathedral are something simply unique and perfect. An area of over 6,000 square meters and over 130 Byzantine mosaics that adorn the church. You can also access, for a fee, to different areas of the cathedral, such as the terraces. Adjacent to the cathedral is the monastery of San Benedetto. The cloister of the monastery has a Romanesque square plan, characterized by more than 90 columns decorated with mosaics and Romanesque capitals. At the center of the cloister there is a garden, with a palm-shaped fountain from whose leaves the water flows. Also near the cathedral is the interesting Diocesan Museum, where collections of paintings, sacred vestments and liturgical objects are housed, as well as a beautiful cycle of 1700 frescoes. From Piazza Vittorio Emanuele II you can see the Duomo, while you can calmly admire the garden with the famous marble fountain called Fontana del Tritone. Another place that is impossible to resist is the Belvedere, located a few steps from the Palazzo del Municipio. From the Belvedere you can look out over the Conca d'Oro and let yourself be conquered by the Palermo hills.

  • Villa Palagonia, Bagheria, Italy
    Villa Palagonia, known as the Villa of the Monsters of Bagheria, is one of the most important Sicilian monuments. The entrance avenue, topped by a triumphal arch, is populated by a host of disturbing-looking statues of monsters and animals, which from the two hundred that were originally today have remained sixty-two and which currently constitute one of the main attractions of the villa. Legends said that statues had an evil influence on men. This did not diminish the notoriety and charm exerted by the villa on writers (such as Goethe) and on directors and artists. Like Salvador Dalì, who declared that he wanted to buy Villa Palagonia for the holiday periods in Sicily. Or Renato Guttuso, born in Bagheria, who called it "the place of my games as a child" and created three works dedicated to the villa. Villa Palagonia also served as the location for some scenes of the film Il Mafioso by Alberto Lattuada with Alberto Sordi (1962), The wedding director by Marco Bellocchio with Sergio Castellitto (2006) and Baarìa by Giuseppe Tornatore (2009). The entrance ticket to the villa costs 5 euros and the visiting hours from Monday to Sunday are from 9 to 13 and from 16 to 19.

  • 90015 Cefalù, PA, Italy
    Cefalù is an ancient medieval village, among the most beautiful and best preserved in Italy. Don't miss a walk through the small narrow streets, the ancient houses, the shops, the restaurants and the ice cream parlors. Halfway along Via Vittorio Emanuele is the medieval washhouse, which is accessed via a staircase made of lava stone. The waters that flow in the washhouse are those of the Cefalino river. Continuing beyond the washhouse, you will arrive at Porta Pescara, an opening from which you can see the sea. Shortly after Porta della Pescara on your left you will find Piazza Marina with the pier of the old port. From the old port you can see the most fascinating part of Cefalù: the houses with balconies directly on the sea. After a few meters you will find yourself in the town hall square in front of which you can see the Cathedral of Cefalù. In addition to the medieval village, Cefalù can boast one of the most beautiful beaches in Sicily with white sand and crystal clear waters.

Erik did a great job providing us safe transportation to three wonderful spots. He gave us highlights to see at each stop as we departed are very nice vehicle parked centrally for our convenience. We were amazing by the beautiful Monreale Cathedral and Cefulo was a delight. Erik took a couple of great pics for our party of 5 and stopped at an amazing lookout over Cefalu! We would recommend this trip!
