Day 2
 Start with a guided walking tour through the city’s Norman and Arab-influenced architecture. Marvel at palaces, mosaics, and cathedrals.
Palermo is somewhere that, just about, still flies under the radar when many consider a European city break. We’ve always loved an underdog, a place perhaps just on the brink of over-tourism and we fell in love with Palermo with minutes. It’s gritty and rough round the edges yet full of charm, churches and a lively food and drink scene. Enjoy a free afternoon to shop, stroll, or siesta.
