Palermo is an urban melting pot characterized by history and culture so diverse that it often feels conflicted. Discover an intriguing range of architectural styles, from Arabian domes to baroque buildings, and enjoy delicious cuisine that spans a variety of origins. Be sure to visit the Palace of the Normans, the Palatine Chapel and the church of St. John of the Hermits. Art and music lovers won’t want to miss the Galleria d’Arte Moderna (the “GAM”), the Salinas or an opera or ballet at the Teatro Massimo.

Came here with my husband for our wedding anniversary and we had a lovely experience is Cassa de montabalno. Maria the housekeeper was amazing. Very helpful friendly and when we arrived we had to organise a Covid test. She organised it with the help of Ivana and we were very happy that they helped us. Maria was a source of information and arranged us to go on a day tour on a Montabalno Day Tour with Nunzio the taxi driver. We had a wonderful day. I would highly recommend this b&b to anyone who loves the tv show. Only negative was we missed the season and not many restaurants were open but we didn’t starve. We bought our food in the local shop and ate on the balcony in the evening. Thank you for having us!

My wife and I were planning a trip to Italy. My wife decided to setup a 3 day tour of Sicily where her family came from. She contacted Roberta and shared some family information with her. The idea was to visit Erice area and a little town of Valerice where my wife's family came from. Roberta picked us up at our hotel in Palermo and our way to Erice area she did a great job telling us about the region and the history. During time from when my wife initially contacted Roberta, she took it upon herself to do some research about my wife's family to the point of making contact with some of my wife's relatives. During the ride from Palermo to Erice area Roberta announced that she had made contact with the family and we were to meet them that day. Needless to say my wife and I were very excited to hear this news. We drove to my wife's relatives home in Valerice and they welcomed us in with open arms. Never meeting these people before and not being able to speak their language was a little intimidating. Roberta to the rescue, she was able to act as our translator and we had a terrific visit. My wife's relatives then took us to the church Santuario Maria S.S. della Misericordia in Valerice which all of family attended and were baptized in. The church was built in 1637 and is still in terrific shape. Roberta then took us on a tour of Erice and Trapani. She did an excellent job and I would recommend her services highly. Roberta acted as our tour guide, helped with genealogy, acted as a translator, and even a doctor when my wife started feeling ill when we rode the tram up to Erice. My wife and I can't say enough good things about Roberta Teresi.
