About Palermo

Palermo is the regional capital of Sicily; its ferry port is on the northwest coast of the island. In the Middle Ages, Palermo was one of the premier cities in Europe, but today it is still recovering from its twentieth-century ruin. With its reputation as a hotbed of both petty and organised crime, Palermo's attractions are often overlooked. There is some beautiful architecture to be found here, and the city has good museums, churches, markets, and restaurants that are well worth a visit.

Palermo's historic centre, Quattro Canti, in the form of a large octagonal square, is the main attraction in the city's old quarter. Many churches, structures, monuments, and other historical sites of interest are located in or near Palermo's Quattro Canti.

About Cagliari

Cagliari, the capital of Sardinia, is a vibrant port city renowned for its rich history, stunning landscapes, and Mediterranean charm. Nestled along the island’s southern coast, it holds a picturesque marina, beaches and rugged cliffs offering panoramic views.

The Port of Cagliari is a bustling maritime hub and gateway to the Mediterranean. Positioned near the city centre, it serves as a key point for commercial trade, ferries, and cruise ships.
