The Most Reliable Palermo Airport Taxis and Transfers
Palermo, the capital of Sicily is surrounded by 12th-century Palermo Cathedral houses, royal tombs, and is world-renowned for its neoclassical Teatro Massimo opera performances. Palermo is rich in culture, nature, and food and is packed with beautiful beaches, wonderful history – like the Palazzo dei Normanni, a royal palace built in the 9th century, and bustling food markets, such as the central Ballarò street market and Vucciria.
If you are planning on visiting this old city, founded in 736 BC, the closest airport is Palermo International Airport. PMO airport services many airlines and is the second biggest airport in Sicily in terms of passengers, after Catania-Fontanarossa Airport, amounting to over 7 million passengers a year.
So, when arriving in a new city, the last thing you want to do is to have to find your way around the busy airport or around Palermo public transport; that is why it is highly recommended to take a private transfer and start your holiday in a private air-conditioned vehicle. Start your trip in a hassle-free manner and book your Palermo airport pickup in advance with Welcome Pickups.
