Gia’s apartment was amazing! Loads of space and a lovely roof terrace for when it was too hot to stay in the city centre. Thankfully Gia’s apartment has air con which was absolutely needed! It was lovely to meet Gia, checking in was nice and easy and she gave us a tour of the apartment and lots of tips on where to visit. We took the train from the airport to Notarbartolo station which was a ten minute walk to the apartment. The apartment is close to supermarkets, some local street food places and restaurants. It is about a 20 minute walk to the Teatro Massimo where there are lots of more touristy places to visit! Palermo is a lovely city but there’s lots of walking involved so bring some good shoes!
