Another port which is again close enough to meander from the boat into the city. Lots to see including street market with lots of gourmet products including saffron and excellent pistachio cream to bring home. ...

It was raining and we had hoped to walk to some churches and a palace but abandoned our plans. In retrospect, I'm not sure a sunny day would have made Palermo very appealing. ...

Immediately overwhelmed by people trying to get you to go on their form of transport, Strange little open top taxis, horse and cart several of which didn't seem very well kept, hop on& Off Bus etc. Very dirty street especially if you wandered from the main areas. This was everyone's least favourite port - We wouldn't want to go back here. ...

There seemed to be fewer crowds later in the day, so I would ...

Norman Palace is impressive but a fair distance from the port, about 30-40 minutes walk. We took the red tourist train and instantly regretted it because it was slow and infrequent. A hop-on hop-off bus might be better. ...
