5.00Pamela gave us an excellent walking tour of Palermo. We were very impressed by her extensive knowledge of Sicilian history, and she brought the city's rich past to life with engaging stories and insights. She showed us all of Palermo's major highlights, answered every question we had, and made the experience both informative and enjoyable. We highly recommend Pamela and this walking tour to anyone visiting Palermo.
A must!

1.00Our guide Milena was amateurish (she admitted that it was her first time). Our expectations weren’t met at any point. It was a waste of time and money. There was nothing we couldn’t find on our own.
