Cruises to Palermo in 2026 & 2027
Palermo is the capital of Sicily, Italy, and one of the Mediterranean’s most characterful port cities. Cruise passengers arrive close to a centre shaped by Arab, Norman, Byzantine and Spanish influences. Key sights include Palermo Cathedral, the Norman Palace, Quattro Canti, local markets and churches filled with mosaics and decoration. The city can feel busy and uneven, but it rewards visitors who enjoy history, street life and food. Excursions may also head to Monreale, beaches or nearby coastal towns. Palermo suits passengers who want a layered Italian port with a strong Sicilian identity and plenty within reach.
