We had a private tour with Cetty of Monreale Cathedral. We had a family group of 6. We took a taxi up to Monreale from the city center of Palermo, about 25 minutes. Getty is an excellent guide who brought to life the times and circumstances of the construction of the cathedral, as well as the artistic and cultural significance of the place, in the context of the history of the country. Her knowledge of details of various kinds is significant. This is an excellent and worthwhile experience.

We thoroughly enjoyed our day with Cetty touring the Norman Palace/Palatine Chapel, Palazzo Conte Federico and Monreale! Cetty is extremely knowledgeable, engaging and offers thoughtful commentary into Palermo’s rich history, art and architecture (she’s actually an experienced architect!). Her love for her wonderful city is palpable and contagious. We highly recommend!
