The Cloister, with its colorful mosaics, is considered the most sought after monument that can be built in its kind. This only after discovering the underground cemetery of Capuchin monks on a journey through time and space to an absolutely fascinating, mysterious and fascinating world. A coffee break of typical Sicilian products, and the return transfer is included in the ticket.

Our guide Consuela, was fantastic. Monreale was beautiful and so much history. The Catacombs are interesting but very morbid. Highly recommend Monreale.

Salvatore met us at our hotel, arranged for the driver to pick us up right out front. Salvatore is very passionate about the cathedral and Palermo's history. He was a great guide. He was patient with our group which included 80+ yr old parents. Driver was excellent at navigating the roads. Highly recommend visiting the cathedral. Catacombs are interesting but may be disturbing to some due to the realistic nature of some of the contents.

What a fantastic tour! Our guide was so incredibly knowledgeable about the area driving from Palermo to Monreale. She has so much information about the cathedral in Monreale that we had few questions! The Cathedral is a “must see” place. The tour provided a stop for coffee and pastries which were quite yummy.
The second part of the tour was the Catacombs in n Palermo. Our driver had great skill with his driving ability. The tour was very informative and spooky. Again, our guide was very knowledgeable about this place.
We were lucky to be just the two of us on this tour. The van was very comfortable and clean.

Monreale is stunning. I would imagine it gets very busy in the holiday season, but worth visiting. The catacombs are a bit creepy, visited once wouldn’t want to visit again.

I was lucky enough to share my tour with only one other traveller to Cathedral Montreale and the Palermo Catacombs!
A really great morning with our amazing guide Sal (Salvadore). He was incredibly knowledgeable, happy and chirpy and a wealth of information which was really appreciated by Suzanne and myself! It was obvious to all he loves his guide job!
His is a real asset to your company and I would highly recommend this tour to all

Tour was blocked as the King of Spain was visiting the site. The guide took us to an alternative site but it wasn't as good.

A fantastic experience with very friendly and knowledgeable tour guide, Salvadore. The trip to the Cathedral at Monreale was magic. Gorgeous Byzantine mosaics covering everything. Simply amazing! The Catacombs are like none other I have ever seen. You will treasure this experience for a lifetime.

Our guide was very knowledgeable about the sights we saw. He showed us things which we would never have seen. He was very responsive to our questions and we even discussed subjects in present day Sicily.
