About This Adventure

In questo itinerario turistico daremo uno sguardo dall’alto alla magnifica città di Palermo, attraverso i complessi architettonici del centro storico: Cattedrale di Palermo, San Giuseppe Cafasso, San Giuseppe dei Teatini e la Chiesa del Carmine Maggiore. Essi ti consentiranno di assaporare da una prospettiva diversa la storia del capoluogo siciliano, apprezzandone l’arte e la moltitudine di monumenti.

Il nostro tour ha inizio nel cuore della Palermo arabo-normanna con l’iconico complesso cattolico della Cattedrale. Dopo il vostro arrivo, avrete l'opportunità di esplorare il monumento tramite un tour guidato che vi condurrà lungo un percorso fino alle splendide terrazze, da cui potrete ammirare lo skyline di Palermo. Qui potrete restare incantati dall'imponenza del terrazzo ornato da diverse cupole, che fungono da lucernari per la Chiesa. Da questa posizione privilegiata potrete osservare le varie chiese, i teatri, le ville, il Palazzo Reale e la Cala di Palermo.
