Great and insightful tour

Published on Jan, 2025

On December 31st, we went on this street food tour, and had an amazing time! Our tour guide, Alessandro, was fantastic and truly exceeded our expectations. He was knowledgeable, engaging, and made the entire experience both fun and educational. The tour was well-paced, allowing us to fully enjoy each stop without feeling rushed. Alessandro's insights into the local cuisine and culture added so much value to the tour. We got to try a variety of delicious street foods, each with its own unique story and flavor. Overall, it was a memorable experience that we would highly recommend to anyone looking to explore the local food scene. Thanks to Alessandro for making it such a wonderful tour, especially when it was the last day of the year ! Grazie e Buon Anno!

Really great tour

Published on Jan, 2025

Thank you for a great tour, we had a wonderful time with Alessandro. Taking the tour meant we tried food we almost certainly wouldn’t have done on our own and there was so much to try we couldn’t finish it all.

Fun family activity to learn about Palermo’s history and food

Published on Jan, 2025

Salvo was a wonderful guide through the streets of Palermo. It was a good mix of history and delicious food. Our family enjoyed the experience and we highly recommend.

Fantastic! Like being in a STANLEY TUCCI: FINDING ITALY episode!

Published on Jan, 2025

If you want to experience Palermo through its food, its culture, neighborhoods, and people, this is your tour. Alessandro, our guide, was terrific! Tons of food, stops, drinks, atmosphere. He was knowledgeable, funny, and endlessly entertaining. Most importantly, he seemed to know everyone at every stop (vendors, shop owners, chefs). He was also great with my 7 year old twins. Perfect tour!
