Palermo: Private Orientation Walking Tour
All you really need to know to understand this Baroque and Aristocracy city
Did you know that Sicily was actually Spanish since 1282 until 1860?
A short period of Sabauda government and the Austrian one, Sicily was above all a vice kingdom, governed by an administrator of the King. In this period Noble families increased their importance and power, manifestation of which was the construction of noble palaces and to finance religious orders, maybe with the hope of earning a piece of Heaven. In Sicily and Palermo, which was the main town of Sicily, rose churches and monasteries in a race for the more beautiful ones.
During this itinerary you will hear about the History of this period and we will see some of most beautiful churches and palaces belonging to or built thanks to, noble families and we will learn how nobles lived, during official moments and in everyday life.

We requested 3 tours for our family of 7. We specifically wanted something that was intimate and designed for just us- to have a personal experience where we would be submerged in the Roman culture and history, while at the same time having an open dialogue with the tour person. All our tours were amazing and the experience was top notch. I feel that we learned so much more having these personal tours than we would have using a large group tour company. One member of our family had some limited physical abilities and both tour guides were very accommodating. The experience will never be forgotten! Emanuele was extremely easy to work with on our bookings. He was very responsive, professional and just downright a joy to work with all around! Crazy4Rome exceeded all expectations!

We had 2 days of touring with Crazy4rome in May. It was outstanding in every way. Easy access to the sites and the tour guide was knowledgable and fun. I would highly recommend them for any excursion!
