Experiential Tourism, to discover the city

Title: Experiential Tourism, to discover the city
Description: Palermo has initiated a tourist and cultural promotion through forms of experiential tourism, with the aim of raising awareness of the local resources and practical experiences in the city. Several projects have been then implemented. Among them, the “Girocavallo” project offers three music and theatrical walks in the Zen, Brancaccio and Danisinni neighbourhoods. Tourists were involved in reading passages and invited to paint and dance, followed by a street food tasting. A good example is also the project named “Chef for a day – The cuisine of the Monsù – A food and cooking tour from the Piazze della Grascia to the elegant 18-century mansions of the Piana dei Colli. A taste journey between the 1700s and 1800s through food”. The latter is including seven coach tours with step-by-step routes, within individual locations in search of ingredients to prepare an 18-century menu, a cooking show in teams, and a tasting the Monsù lunch.
