We decided to go to Italy in October and are going to Venice, Florence, Rome, Pompei. I really want to go to the catacombs in Palermo. Can we get there by plane? From what city? And has anyone ever gone to the catacombs?
Thanks
Ginny - yes, you can get to Palermo by plane, probably from at least 3 of the cities you mention- Venice, Florence, Rome. We flew from Milan to Palermo on Alitalia though there are several other regional airlines that you can also use. We went to the Catacombs. We all enjoyed seeing it though my 17 year old son liked it the most. We spent about an hour there then went on to the cathedral at Monreale. I had not initially thought we'd get to see Monreale and was really glad that we did. It was not just another church - be sure to make room in your Palermo itinerary to see this specatacular sight.
