Overview

Ready to experience a side of Palermo like a local, with a local? This is a tour, unlike any other! If you want to take a step away from the touristy path, there's no better way than by diving into the city's alternative side. Welcome to Kalsa!

If you're done with the main highlights, why not step away and take a less-traveled path that will show you an unexpected side of Palermo? Follow a local guide on a private tour full of surprises and check out Piazza Pretoria,
Chiesa Santa Maria dello Spasimo, and more that let the true form of the city shine!
