What are people saying about Palermo

Angela_Z, Jul 2026

Couldn’t Ask for More – Absolutely Perfect Private Boat Trip

From the very first message to the moment I stepped back onto the dock, this private boat trip exceeded every expectation. Communication was outstanding — prompt, clear, and genuinely helpful at every stage, making the whole booking and planning process completely stress-free. The crew was incredibly warm and attentive. Their friendly, professional service made me feel like a valued guest rather than just another booking. Every detail was handled with care and a genuine smile. The boat itself was in supreme condition — spotless, beautifully maintained, and clearly well looked after. It felt luxurious and comfortable from start to finish. The agenda was perfectly organized. Everything ran smoothly and on time, with just the right balance of activity and relaxation. Nothing felt rushed or overlooked. The catering and beverages were outstanding — thoughtfully prepared, delicious, and presented with real care. Every refreshment was exactly what I needed and elevated the entire experience. I truly couldn’t have asked for more. This was one of the best private boat trips I’ve ever taken, and I’d book it again in a heartbeat. Highly recommended!

Palermo: Grand Tour in CruiserCar

Kim_R, Jul 2026

Excellent Way To Tour Palermo

Fabrizio, our tour guide was amazing. He was knowledgeable, very easy to understand, and did an excellent job showing us the sites and explaining the history. Just make VERY sure there are no reports of extreme hot weather/fires, etc. We were on a cruise and the fires on the roads from Palermo to Catania closed the roads, so our bus ride back to Catania took seven hours instead of two, which means we missed our ship leaving the port for two days. Other than that, the tour itself was amazing!

Very natural, informative, and great with kids!

Francesco was incredible!

Very much worth it if you want to get the sense of Palermo in just a few hours. Highly recommend!

Very Interesting Tour

This was a historical tour combined with present day information. Our young guide, Guiseppe, was well-spoken, prepared, and sincere. The content could have taken a political tone, but Guiseppe provided balanced facts and let us come to our own conclusions. His love and appreciation for Palermo was evident and heartwarming.

She even had skip-the-line tickets for the bakery at the Monastery of Santa Caterina, so we avoided the long wait, and those cannoli were delicious. Emma was also incredibly knowledgeable about the highlights of Sicily along our walk. I highly recommend this tour!

Palermo : Historic Center, Catacombs & Monreale CruiserCar Tour

Megan_F, Sep 2025

Absolute must when in Palermo!

This tour was honestly one of my family’s favorite things we did while in Sicily. Coming off of a busy few days in Rome, this was the perfect thing for us to do. It was us (5 adults), our driver and our guide, Fabrizio. The cruiser car was very comfortable (and VERY clean) and we had great weather. The amount of snacks and beverages included were far more than I had expected. They even tried to send more drinks with us from the cooler after the tour ended. We had some flight problems before arriving in Sicily and Fabrizio was wonderful to communicate with and changed our tour time to the afternoon with no issues. We got to learn some history during the tour while seeing amazing things and views. They offered to take group photos for us, too. They also offered to let us play our own music via the Bluetooth speaker but we told them to pick the music and their playlist was far better than ours would have been. We had a lot of people looking at us in the cruiser car, and we heard many of them saying, “Why didn’t we do something like that?!” We got to see all of the main sites without any hassle or walking forever. At the end, they offered to bring us back to our hotel or a restaurant, and we asked for restaurant recommendations. Their recommendations ended up being phenomenal. It was the most relaxed experience while being one of the most carefree/fun. I seriously cannot put into words how much my family and I enjoyed this. I thought more people would have booked this! Cannot recommend enough. We started comparing every excursion to this one. They set a high standard.
