Palace tours · PALERMO PALACE TOURS
Timed slots, closing days and a dress code at the gate. These 4 palermo palace tours are priced and timed so you can decide in minutes and book the right hour.
Step inside Palazzo Conte Federico, a private family residence in central Palermo. A Conte family member, sometimes Nicholas or the Count himself, guides you through the noble floor and Arab-Norman tower in English, Italian, or German. The visit lasts about 50 minutes and includes admission.
“Thoroughly recommend this tour, really interesting and fascinating building, full of history. Tour lasted about an hour”
Spend 90 minutes exploring Palermo’s Norman Palace, Palatine Chapel, and palace gardens with an English-speaking guide. Expect Byzantine mosaics, Islamic design, royal stories, and clear context from guides such as Renata, Fabio, Deborah, and Stefania. Tickets are included, and the tour uses a separate entrance.
“Very knowledgeable guide.An experience worth the money.The palace and the gardens are magnificent, especially the chapel. Unfortunately we couldn't see the chambers on that day”
Spend two hours with an English, Italian, or Spanish-speaking guide inside Palermo’s Norman Palace and Cappella Palatina. Guides such as Renata, Emilia, Claudio, and Luna explain the chapel’s Byzantine mosaics and its Norman and Islamic influences. The $45 tour fee covers guiding only, while entrance tickets cost €13 to €21.
“Our tour was excellent!! Our guide, Emilia, was so knowledgeable and thorough. Highly recommend!!”
Join an Italian-speaking guide, including Fabrizio or Claudio, for a guided visit to Palermo’s Royal Palace and Palatine Chapel. See Norman mosaics, an Islamic muqarnas ceiling, royal rooms, and a Chinese-style queen’s chamber. The $14 fee covers guiding only, so buy your palace ticket separately and dress modestly.
“Fabrizio è una guida molto preparata e coinvolgente. Ci ha descritto in modo preciso la storia di palazzo reale, il ciclo narrativo rappresentato nei mosaici della cappella Palatina e gli ambienti delle stanze reali. Super consigliato!”
By the ticket you need, the house you came for, or the country it stands in.
