Best food tour ever!
"Took my foodie family on this tour with Dario, and it was such a wonderful day. Dario brought us to some really great places, and had us try authentic Sicilian dishes. He gave us education on the dishes and the neighborhoods. Additionally, he gave us great recommendations on things to do in Sicily for the rest of our visit. I would do this time and time again. Thank you, Dario! "

A city tour tailor-made for us.
"We were very lucky to discover Palermo together with Salvatore. He loves his city and enjoys it when his guests also succumb to the charm of Palermo. His sense of what we were most interested in and what information we needed was unique. If you want to discover Palermo with a friendly insider, we would recommend Salvatore. Thanks for the nice time."

Best introduction to Palermo!
"Salvatore is not only a knowledgeable and enthusiastic guide to all things Palermitani, but he is charming and funny, and speaks English beautifully. It was a very pleasant experience to spend three hours walking with him through beautiful Palermo. Just the right amount of time. He showed us many things we would not have seen in the guidebooks. All four of us were very glad we took the tour. Highly recommend!"

Food tour
"Karolina was very personable and very well informed about both the food and history of Palermo. We thoroughly enjoyed a casual relaxed walking tour that took us from delightful food markets and stalls to various restaurants ending at a renowned nunnery with the most exceptional dessert cannoli treats. We had the opportunity to sample a wide range of cuisines including meat, fish and vegetable based along with fresh squeezed (in front of you) pomegranate and other juices. We were all four of us, well and deliciously fed! "

Come on an empty stomach!
"Me and my wife came on our honeymoon to Palermo and started it off with an incredible food tour with Dario. The dishes we tasted were not only incredibly tasty but deeply engrained within the culture and history of Palermo which Dario confidently and easily explained to us as we explored the beautiful city and it's markets. This tour will leave you so stuffed to the brim you'll be ready for an incredible happy food coma. Thank you for your incredible tour Dario and starting off our holiday in such a brilliant manner"

Lovely introduction to Palermo!
"Karolina was very sweet to pick us up from our Air BnB in Capo- as we had a rough start to our vacation- our flight from Dallas was 3 hours late and so we missed our connection to Palermo and had to buy another flight on a different airline! Karolina made our 1 day in Palermo hassle free:) We learned so much about this incredible city and thoroughly enjoyed her company! Thanks so much❤️"
