Cycle Palermo’s historic center, markets, monuments, harbor, and street food with a local guide on this relaxed three-hour tour.

“Our guide, Paulo, is also a middle school teacher and had a treasure trove of information on the city of Palermo - history and architecture. The starting point was easy to find. The terrain was manageable by all. The shop seems to have a place to store luggage during the tour. One bicycle broke down, but the shop responded quickly. We waited about 10 minutes in the flower market where it was heartening to see a couple of local men with with tools were willing to help. Even with all the unexpected excitement, we still returned on time.”
