Here is a guide to the 15 most unmissable Palermo attractions. I have also included 7 unusual things for travelers and some helpful tips you cannot find anywhere else. As always, it is your pure-bred Sicilian best friend Nico here.
Today I want to talk about what you should see when you are in Palermo. Before you begin wildly scrolling down, take a moment and read what I have to say. I agree with you, because I am a skimmer too. So, of course the question is why should you care?
While I love singing the praises of my city, this information helps you to understand one crucial concept. Here in Palermo, there are many things to see , many things to do , many stories to hear , and a lot of moving around.
Without a plan, you are going to have a very stressed and horrible experience. The public transportation system, information available to tourists, the amount of people who can speak credible English, and other standards for tourists are far below the normal for other areas of Europe.
When you are in Sicily, you need to have a clear and concise plan. You should actually take a moment, sit down and plan out your trip with pen and paper. Create an itinerary and provide yourself with something to narrate what will be in front of you. Options include books, audio guides, and actual human tour guides to help you better understand the city. Being an unfocused and poorly planned explorer is only going to guarantee that you waste your money.
