Does anyone have any good recommendations for places to eat in the evening in the vicinity of Stazione Centrale? Thanks!

Alright so basically me and my friend got really drunk last night( hammered ), and bought 2 tickets to Palermo. We have absolutely no idea why we did that since we are absolutely broke, like completely broke. So we are here to find someone that could maybe host us in their home :}}}}}. PLEAAAAASE SPEED I NEED THIS. ( 9 - 15 july )

Ciao! I’m currently staying in Palermo for a week and realised that you can’t get Diet Coke here, which is all I drink 😅 Coca-Cola Light looks to be the closest to the UK version since it has aspartame in it, but it looks like it’s super difficult to find! Coke Zero is not an option sadly, I don’t like it at all 😂 If anyone knows of any locations I could find some I would be very grateful 😊

Hello.

Me and my girlfriend are visiting the city over the Halloween period for her birthday and I have had a few people that have visited Italy tell me I have to be very, very careful about pickpocketing to the point it may actually affect our enjoyment of our holiday?

The issue is looking online most sources state Sicily doesn't really have pickpocketing to the level of the main tourist hubs like Roma/Venezia/Napoli.

As a result I thought I'd just skip the third party sources, especially as most have visited the above cities and not Palermo, and instead ask the locals how bad the problem really is.

Hello,

The question is very obvious. I plan to visit Palermo and around (specifically seaside like Cefalu), however when I looked at return flights to my city the one from Palermo is on 9 am, Saturday. However there is one from Catania on Sunday, cheaper, at 12:45, which will give me one extra day to explore Palermo. On google maps there seems to be a direct bus from Palermo center to Catania airport directly, of course a bit longer but Palermo airport is not so close to the city either.

Would it be too dumb to fly from Catania?

Buongiorno,

Mi è capitata una cosa strana questa mattina e vorrei sapere la vostra.
Ero su un sito di rentalcar locale e contatto l’assistenza.
Solo che mi risponde questo signore e dicendomi che sul sito i prezzi sono sempre più alti sul sito, ma che se avessi prenotato con lui sarebbe riuscito a farmi più sconto.
Ora io mi son detto, proviamo. E lui mi ha fatto una proposta di qualche euro in meno.
Adesso, a parte il fatto che comunque già il prezzo sul sito era mega competitivo. Se il avessi continuato e concluso con lui. Io avrei avuto una ricevuta o qualcosa che attestasse che la macchina l’avrei avuta? Che garanzie avrei avuto, e cosa ci guadagna la gente a fare così?
Io apprezzo la gentilezza, ma la trasparenza in questo caso viene a mancare purtroppo e come faccio a fidarmi? Chiedere delle ricevute? Un preventivo da firmare? Non è una cosa brutta da chiedere? Help pleaseee

Hi, my wife and I are going to Palermo again (our favorite vacation destination). I think this will be our fifth or sixth visit, a total of several weeks (some in summer, some in fall). We're looking for some unusual attractions and places to visit, maybe a tour or a cooking class? We've seen 99% of the popular spots in the city itself, so is it something only locals know and worth trying? If you have anything worth checking out, please share it with us.

That's not to say the city is boring. Just strolling through the crowded streets and eating pani cà meusa on a bench brings us immense joy.

Quante volte vi è capitato, in viaggio, di scegliere un posto dove mangiare con recensioni altissime, trovandovi poi nel classico locale "acchiappa-turisti" a mangiare male e pagare il triplo?

Stiamo facendo una piccola ricerca proprio su questo: come scegliamo davvero dove andare a mangiare e quanto ci fidiamo di quello che leggiamo online. Ci interessa un punto che spesso viene sottovalutato: perché i gusti di chi vive in una città (i "local") sono così diversi da quelli di chi ci passa solo per un weekend?

Se avete due minuti, ci dareste una mano enorme compilando e condividendo questo brevissimo questionario:

- Non servono dati sensibili: la mail è opzionale solo se volete ricevere una mail a ricerca conclusa.

Grazie a tutte le persone che decideranno di collaborare!

I’m visiting Palermo next week and I was wondering what are halal options in Palermo? I would also like to try some traditional Italian food but I have concerns if the vegan food is prepared separately from non-vegan (for example arancinas), or adding wine to pasta… Any recommendations are appreciated!

Hi! I’m visiting the city next week and I want to buy a high quality gold cornicello necklace for my daughter and I (to honor our Sicilian ancestry). Thought it would be an awesome thing to get but I’m having trouble figuring out where to find one ( Gemini has sent options but they seem to be high end watch stores that don’t appear to have this type of jewelry based on reviews and photos). If anyone could help I’d really appreciate it. These would be very meaningful pieces. Thanks!

Salve redditors,

I'm in Palermo with my girlfriend and we are looking for any recommendations for tiny and delicious restaurants in a small alley far from the big streets and tourists places.

Any locals or former tourists who can give us a tip?

I purchased Trenitalia regional tickets from Palermo Centrale to Agrigento Centrale for June 10.

When I bought them, the route looked like a direct train with no transfer. Now when I search the same route, every option shows a train from Palermo Centrale to Roccapalumba-Alia, then a replacement bus to Agrigento Centrale.

The strange part is that my existing ticket still only shows Palermo Centrale to Agrigento Centrale. It does not mention the bus or the transfer.

Is that normal with Trenitalia regional tickets? Do they usually not notify customers when part of the route changes to a replacement bus?

Mostly just trying to figure out if my current ticket is still valid for the train + bus, or if I need to do anything before the trip.
