Biking Adventures

Discover Palermo’s historical, artistic and scenic charms on a bike tour exploring the enchanting coastline, where the sea and the secrets of the past are the main protagonists. Along this coastal route, you will pass the Borgo of Arenella, a scattering of streets born as a fishing village and developed during the 19th century around the Tonnara Florio. The tour will continue towards Mondello, a characterful seaside village with a picturesque stretch of shoreline. Here, an array of delicious Sicilian street food awaits. Next, the ride will continue through the Real Parco della Favorita, a vast park reaching roughly 400 hectares, created in 1799 by Ferdinand III of Bourbon. The park was mainly used as his private hunting reserve. Continue to the ancient Chinese Palazzina, the former royal residence of the Bourbons. After an exhilarating ride, your tour will lead you back to Villa Igiea for a well-deserved aperitivo.
