My reviews

    My daughter and I had an absolutely wonderful 4-hour walking tour of Palermo with our guide, Benedetto through City Unscripted. From the moment we met him, he made us feel completely at ease and instantly brought the city to life with his warmth, and deep local knowledge. He guided us through Palermo’s winding streets, hidden piazzas, and vibrant markets, sharing fascinating stories about the city’s history, culture, and daily life. What made it so special was how personal it felt - he tailored the tour perfectly to our interests, from architecture and history to food and local life. We discovered places we never would have found on our own and gained such a rich appreciation of Palermo’s layers - its beauty, its grit, and its soul. It felt like spending an afternoon with a friend who loves his city and wants you to love it too. I can’t recommend this experience highly enough. If you’re visiting Palermo, ask for Benedetto - he made our time in the city truly unforgettable.
