Testimonials

Hi Michele! I want you to know that all of us on the tour think highly of Salvo, you and Sicily TravelNet. I will be certain to recommend your tours to other cruisers on a website for cruisers that I visit a lot.

Thanks again for all the help you gave us in planning this tour. We hope to return to Sicily and tour with you again because there's still so much to see.

Inside the Royal Palace we will visit the 12th century Palatine Chapel, built by the Normans, but decorated with Byzantine- and Islamic-style mosaics. The nearby Cathedral was built by the Normans, but every new ruling dynasty that arrived added their own style to it. Then we will make our way through the Arab-style street market called Capo. This is really a cacophony of voices, flavors, perfumes and colors, very similar to souk markets in Arab countries. Then, we will drive to nearby Monreale where we will visit the Norman Duomo (Cathedral) decorated on the inside with over 6,340 sq. meters (almost 70,000 sq. feet) of mosaics and 24-carat gold!
