Activities & Experiences

On Safari in Palermo

There’s no need to go off to some remote Savannah to do some animal hunting. Palermo will surprise you: it’s a roaring urban jungle waiting to be discovered! Follow the rules of the Savannah, keep a sharp lookout, sniff out the tracks and gather the evidence around you to survive and come out victorious! The Urban Safari is a fun way to explore and capture the wild spirit of the city. The objective of the game is to win the hunting trophy and “capture” as many animals as possible, with the help of your camera, the clues and the riddles.

Palermo's Street Food Challenge

Set out on an exploration of the flavours of Palermo in a Street Food Challenge which promises to spark friendly competition and get the whole family’s taste buds tingling. Wander through the local market stalls to discover some of the city’s street food specialities. With a pen and activity book in hand, tick off your achievements and journal your culinary experiences on this memorable adventure. The bravest who dare try the most unusual yet delicious delicacies, will be awarded a prize for their courage.

On a Family Adventure in Palermo

Assisted by our expert guide, plan an exciting day for the little ones. Take them behind the scenes with a master puppeteer to learn the secret to the playful sleight of hand required for this illusive art. You’ll visit the Puppet Museum where junior entertainers can don costumes of their favourite fictional characters. Board an ape, a classic Sicilian three-wheeled vehicle, and whizz through the alleyways of Palermo’s historic city centre. Delve into the colourful world of local crafts in the Kalsa district, lined with artisanal shops specialising in handmade ceramics, woodwork and textiles. Cap off the day with a visit to a local pastry shop and put your culinary skills to the test.

Discover the Puppet Heritage of Palermo

We’ve pulled some strings and set the stage for a magical day of storytelling with Palermo’s most wonderful tradition, the Puppet Opera. The master puppeteer will teach you how to produce puppet props, operate the strings and create unusual sounds from the show on the barrel organ. Following a cultural extravaganza, put on your detective cap and embark on a treasure hunt. Seek out clues that will reveal characters hidden within the city's historic landmarks, ranging from ornate fountains and colossal statues to beautiful heritage buildings. After a successful afternoon solving riddles, unfurl your picnic blanket under an ancient Ficus in the centre of Piazza Marina.
