Firstly Stefania is the most welcoming kind happy of tour guides and was my guide for the Living the market tour. With my poor sense of direction I couldn't find my way to the start point but Stefania found her way to me which I was so grateful for. Stefania's historical knowledge in incredible which she delivered in a fun way. Palermo is simply a beautiful city and easy to get around on foot so I strongly recommend a tour guide. Stefania's recommendation for the best Canolli in town at St Catherines church was spot on....it was incredible canolli. Thankyou so much Stefania for making my stay in Palermo so memorable. Highly recommend
