ABOUT US
Hey there!
My name is Marco. I'm a proud Palermitano, deeply rooted in this vibrant city. Together with fellow local tour guides and friends, we lead free-tip walking tours giving travelers the chance to enjoy an authentic experience in town.

We dive into lively discussions on everything from social issues to the controversial, giving you a real taste of the city's soul.

WHAT YOU'LL DO
Our adventure commences from the precise location of VIA MAQUEDA 461 (outside the shoe shop Premier), leading you through the winding alleys where Palermo's soul truly resides.
