Palermo by train

The train to Palermo and the Palermo train station

Almost all trains pull into Palermo's Stazione Centrale on Piazza Giulio Cesare at the foot of Via Roma, at the southeastern edge of the city center.

Do not get off accidentally at the suburban station Palermo-Stazione Notarbartolo. You'll have to wait for another train or grab a taxi to get into the city center.

Buses from the train station

The piazza in front of the train station is the main city bus terminus for Palermo.

As a general rule, bus routes starting with a "1" head north from the station; buses starting with a "2" head south (at least eventually; some tool around in the center first).

Buses 101, 102, and 107 head straight up Via Roma into the heart of town and beyond.

Bus 225 handily trundles up Via Roma, then turns right down Via V. Emanuele to the water, then south on Foro Italiaco Umberto I.

Bus 234 heads west on Corso Tukory before bending south.
