Off the beaten track - great addition to the obvious - Our host, Salvatore, contacted us in advance and asked if we had any specific wishes for the tour, which was great and made it exactly the experience we had in mind. In addition, we have taken tips and recommendations for the following days. A super friendly and sympathetic guide who obviously loves what he is doing. Highly recommended!

A great wander through Kelsa neighbourd in Palermo - Karolina was an excellent guide for a few hours on our first morning in Palermo, she helped give us some orientation about Palermo, some history and some food and drink advice, too. The cannoli and granita stop topped off our wander. A great activity to do when you arrive!

Awesome walking tour. - We really enjoyed our time with Karolina. She was incredibly knowledgeable about the history of Palermo. She showed us a lot of history in Kalsa. She was very personable and was easy to talk to. I would not hesitate to take another tour with Karolina.

Tour Guide didn’t show up - I reserved this tour months in advance and was charged for it exactly 48 hours before the day of the tour. My group of four arrived at the meeting place 15 minutes early. However, the guide never showed up. I called her cell phone and there was no answer and no voicemail. I had to call TripAdvisor in the US at significant expense only to learn that the tour had been cancelled by “the supplier”. No explanation. I had not received a text nor an email about it. I was reimbursed for the tour (not the lengthy phone call, on hold and having to navigate a phone tree). It was our first day in Palermo and we had hoped to be oriented to the city. We ended up using a self-guided tour in a guide book. Very disappointed in the guide and Trip Advisor.
