Escape the hustle and bustle of Palermo on a half-day tour to Monreale and Cefalù. Marvel at the majestic Norman cathedral of Monreale, located on the slopes of Monte Caputo, and discover the historic coastal city of Cefalù, with its Greek and Medieval roots.
After being picked up from Piazza Verdi 59 (in front of Ristorante 59), you will depart for Monreale and spend about 1.5 hours visiting the famous Norman cathedral. The official audio guide will accompany you as you discover the history and artistic details of one of the most important medieval ecclesiastical buildings in the south of Italy.
Then continue on to Cefalù, driving along Sicily's stunning northern coast. After you arrive, you’ll have around 2 hours to explore the 12th-century Duomo, discover traces of the Middle Ages at the Osterio Magno, enjoy panoramic views from Porta Terra, see Greek and Arabic pottery in the Mandralisca Museum, and walk down the curving stone steps to the picturesque 16th-century wash basins at the Lavatoio.
A unique experience combining art, history and breathtaking views, perfect for discovering two of Sicily’s most iconic destinations in total comfort. This activity falls into the category of self-guided excursions: an excursion without an on-site guide, where travelers explore tourist destinations independently and at their own pace.
