“Our tour operator, Fabrizio, was simply terrific. He spent time ensuring that we could use the equipment safely, then led us on a fun and informative tour of the park on great little electric scooters. Fabrizio loves his city, the park, and Sicily, and gave us insights on the park and the region in general that we never would have learned otherwise.

Fabrizio soon seemed like and old friend, helping us take pictures and giving us tips for the best views. We stayed until dark, then the park…”

Bike through Palermo’s old town and harbor on a 3-hour anti-mafia ride honoring Falcone and Borsellino.
“Being on bikes allowed us to see important historical sites outside of Palermo center. We biked on both the road and bike paths, and it was safe and not strenuous. Our guide told us fascinating stories that gave the context for how the Mafia worked and how resistance was built and is still ongoing. He also had a personal connection to the history, being a child living in a building across from one of the bombings. It gave me an appreciation for how change takes place as the result of the actions of many ordinary and extraordinary people, a message I needed to hear more than ever now. Highly recommended.”
