A family who influenced Sicilian culture and heritage

The Florio tour will make you discover the atmosphere of the Belle époque of Palermo, when noble people and entrepreneurs hosted parties and events to enhance the culture of the city. Starting from the heart of Palermo, until reaching the Arenella area, you will discover new districts of the town, outside the touristic path. Your experience will start at Piazza San Domenico, where your guide will wait for you to go together to the ancient Florio grocery store, in via dei Materassai; then a private taxi will take you to Villino Florio all’Olivuzza, the family summer residence, and Palazzina dei Quattro Pizzi, an architectural marvel, known as a symbol of the family’s richness, for an exclusive private tour with tasting. The tour will end in one of Palermo’s landmarks, Piazza Marina.
