It was a blast driving around the historic city in the tiny convertible top cars on tiny streets. You BECOME the attraction with everyone waving and taking photos because it's so cute. You'll feel like a movie star! Definitely bring sunscreen. Definitely know how to drive a stick shift / manual transmission car! Definitely don't be a shy driver -- keep up! The English is a bit sketchy but got the job done. Thank you Salvatore! He made our day and we'll be talking about it for weeks!
It was a memorable experience together with my wife we had good time and Salvatore was very kind and patient taking us around Palermo explaining also some of historical facts and scenic of the town, it was nice to see the reaction of local and not people when going around with the cute vintage fiat 500. Thanks again Salvatore for the wonderful experience. Piercarlo and Cheresa
