Palermo Sightseeing Bus
Route and Stops
The Palermo tourist bus makes 14 stops at the principal tourist attractions around the famous capital city of Sicily. During the journey, you'll hear English-language commentary about the places we're passing on the route.
The bus route takes you to the essential sights around the city, such as the beautiful Palermo Cathedral, the elegant Massimo Theatre (the largest Opera House in Italy), and Zisa Castle.
You can also visit the Quattro Canti square, surrounded by four elegant baroque palaces. You'll even see one of the most terrifying locations in Sicily, the Capuchin Catacombs of Palermo, where more than eight thousand embalmed and partially mummified bodies are laid to rest.

With this pass, you'll be able to use lines A and B. Please be aware that stop 2 (Palazzo Steri) has been moved to the Foro Italico, found by the Porta Felice.
How it Works
The ticket is valid for 24 consecutive hours from the moment it's used for the first time. During that time, you hop on and off the buses as many times as you want, which makes it easy for you to explore the city at your own pace.
