Historic Palermo with Neils - Neil’s our guide was the best. He was patient with us and detailed historic areas with passion. He was careful to make sure he covered unexpected details. He gave us time to look around and ask him questions. He was very helpful and kind. Thank you for your insight.

Great Tour- Salvatore was wonderful guide - This was one of the best tours we took during two weeks in Italy. We can't say enough good things about Salvatore- he was knowledgeable, passionate, interesting and helped us understand history and context more than any other guide. We needed to deal with a personal issue during the tour. Salvatore not only helped us with that, but he stayed beyond the scheduled end time to make sure we had a full tour. We highly recommend the tour in general- and if you go, go with Salvatore.

This tour with Salvatore opened up a new experience of Palermo - My mom and I thoroughly enjoyed our evening tour with Salvatore. This is our second time to Palermo. I would never have discovered this "off beaten track" without Salvatore's assistance. Thank you Salvatore for the wonderful memories! I would definitely recommend this tour with Salvatore.

Off the beaten path - Salvatore is the best! His historic knowledge of Palermo is delightful is his way of relating past history to present day. As the tour is titled, it is off the beaten path away from other tours and the one on one with Salvadore is the best, Bravo!
