Palermo Grand Tour in CruiserCar

Beth_B, Nov 2026

Absolutely Fabulous Experience

This is an absolutely fantastic excursion. The service was amazing. They picked us up right at the port and drove us all around the beautiful city of Palermo. Pietro was very good at letting us know where and when to meet for pick up and Alessio was the perfect guide. Out of all of our excursions this was, by far, our favorite. The drinks, snacks and music were an added plus! Do not skip this trip.

Palermo Food Tour: 10+ Tastings of Arancini, Cannoli, Wine & More

Mark_L, Oct 2026

Fun, interesting and delicious tour

We met Lorenzo early at the meeting point. We started the tour there and for the next 3 plus hours we traveled around Palermo learning about the various destinations and eating great food. The areas we traveled were new to us, and it was nice to explore new locations. We stopped and discussed Saint Rosalia who was said to banish the plague. He also told us of a personal relationship his family has with her. It was very interesting and brought his personal experience into the tour. Some food we had included Sicilian pizza, pasta and a white port wine which was delicious. One thing we really appreciated was that whenever we stopped he counted to make sure everyone was there. We went to the "secret" bakery where we had excellent cannolies. He told us that they brought in a hawk to chase away the pigeons. Lorenzo has a wealth of knowledge for the history of the area. We went to the market and he gave us a history of it and why the vendors were in specific locations. His knowledge, coupled with his enthusiasm and great sense of humor made this an excellent tour. I highly recommend it and I hope you can get Lorenzo as your tour guide.

See Palermo in style

From the moment we met our two guides, we were greeted with an incredible level of enthusiasm and excitement! Riding through the city in the open-air car was such a fun and unique way to experience its beauty. The ride was smooth, and we traveled through both the historic and newer parts of the city, with our guides providing wonderful explanations and stories about all the sights along the way. The cooler stocked with beverages and the basket of snacks were such thoughtful touches that made our three-hour experience even more enjoyable and memorable. We highly recommend this experience—it was truly one of the highlights of our time in the city!

The Godfather Origins of Mafia: Corleone & Visit Monreale Duomo

Sandy_P, Sep 2026

The Godfather Origins of Mafia

Our day exploring Corleone with our private driver, Umberto, was truly unforgettable. From the Mafia Museum and a wonderful lunch in Corleone to the magnificent sights & historic conversation along the way, Umberto made the experience exceptional. His knowledge of Sicily is remarkable, but even more special is the genuine love and passion he has for his homeland. As the grandson of an immigrant from Sicily I felt connected. He shared that love with us throughout the journey, giving us a deeper appreciation for the history, culture, and beauty of Sicily. Umberto provided wonderful service from beginning to end, and his warmth and enthusiasm made the day feel personal and meaningful. My son Erik and I were so grateful for this experience and would highly recommend Umberto to anyone wanting to discover the real Sicily.

Cooking Class Pasta & Tiramisu

A totally nice evening. Upon arrival, there was a good glass of Prosecco, and then we went to the restaurant where all the ingredients were already prepared. The chef then humorously demonstrated the individual steps to us. Then we were allowed to prepare our own Tiramisu. Afterward, we made the pasta dough. He also helped us as needed. In the end, the pasta and tortellini were cooked and enjoyed with a wonderful glass of wine 🍷. The chef was very nice, and the evening was perfect.
