The mosaic-filled Monreale Cathedral (Duomo di Monreale) is both one of Italy’s most impressive masterpieces of medieval architecture and one of Sicily’s finest examples of Norman design. The triumph of Norman, Arab, Byzantine and classical elements was built by William II in 1184, and continues to dazzle visitors almost 1,000 years later.

4-Hour Tour of the Capuchin Catacombs and Monreale Cathedral from Palermo

4-Hour Tour of the Capuchin Catacombs and Monreale Cathedral from Palermo

8
Visit with us one of the most suggestive places in the world! At the Capuchin monastery in Palermo you can discover the Catacombs. Between the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, in exchange for rich donations, illustrious Sicilian characters entrusted the bodies of their deceased to the Friars, who were mummified with natural techniques. In addition to being an impressive place, the Catacombs are today a very important historical testimony of a Palermo full of charm and mystery. The second stage of the tour includes the city of Monreale, located on the slopes of Monte Caputo. Founded by the Arabs, it is one of the most important testimonies of the synergistic fusion of two cultures: Arab-Norman. Imposing and dominant, the famous Duomo, a World Heritage Site, rises above the town. You will be impressed by the refinement of the Byzantine elements and the immensity of the Christ Pantocrator.

Enjoy with us and in full relaxation one of the most requested tours of Western Sicily. It starts with Monreale. Going up Monte Caputo, you arrive at the town that offers from its terraces unique panoramas over the Conca D'Oro, where the city of Palermo stands. You immediately come across the Duomo, one of the most beautiful testimonies of the Norman Arab style in Sicily. Inside you will be struck by the luminous majesty of the Byzantine-style Christ Pantocrator and the treasures kept on the upper floor. Not far from the Cathedral it is easy to reach the Cloister, it is the most complete Romanesque sculpture monument in Sicily. The next stop is Cefalù. Moving about 100 km, we reach the town on the sea. The narrow streets of the historic center, which offer at every angle glimpses of the sea, old houses, balconies full of Sicilian flowers and scents, will lead you to the main square where the Cathedral stands, another wonderful monument of Arab Norman style in Sicily.

A beautiful tour
My granddaughter Julia and I enjoyed the tour with Cristian very much. He gave us a thorough historical overview of Palermo and Monreale. The seaside town of Mondello was lovely and we enjoyed our lunch in the warm sunshine. Cristian was always a gentleman and responsive to our questions.

Great city to explore.
Beautiful City, one of my favorites, with friendly people. This is not a tour, just a ride to and from the city, which my friend I were fine with. We were able to freely walk and discover the city on our own. Highly recommend, as this is a beautiful little village by the Seaside!

Fabulous and recommend to all!
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 Helen from Australia
