"We were so lucky to have been connected to Agata as she provided the most valuable and entertaining tour we ever experienced. It was easy to see that her connections in Catania run deep as she knew so many of the local people we passed along our tour. As noted, Agata was full of surprises and most entertaining with her enthusiasm for showing us Catania. Thank you Agata! Do not hesitate to book with her if given the chance. Grazie mille"

"We had a wonderful experience with Agata. She was very knowledgeable in the history of Catania and took us on a long tour around the old city. She even invited us to try Catania’s dessert delicacy and the city’s lemonade specialty. We highly recommend her to anyone who would like to do a tour of Catania. Thank you again Agata 🥰"

"We had a private food tour with Maria in Catania. She was very prompt meeting us. She gave us a very detailed history lesson about the town of Cantania. There were probably four or five stops for food tastings. All of them were very good. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour and would recommend her The tour was well worth it"

"We booked The 10 Tastings of Catania with Agata for my family of six and it was the highlight of our stay! It started off with a tour of the famous fish market and meandered through the historic section of Catania, stopping at some hidden gems for bites to eat. We tasted so many delicious local specialties and learned the history behind them. Do not eat before the tour as we were stuffed by the end, although we still managed to find room for granita! Our local guide Agata was very engaging and knowledgeable of Catania traditions and culture. At each stop she told a story about that particular food and its history in Sicily. This is my second time touring with Agata, and I highly recommend her!"

"Arranged the walking food tour of Catania with Mirco for my cousin traveling solo. The cousin reports having a terrific time and enjoying every minute of the experience. Thanks Mirco!"

"Mirco was very informative and spoke English very well. He is a local and answered all our questions. "

"I had a fantastic culinary tour with Simona Maria as she took us to some of the best food spots in Catania. All while providing the history of the city. She answered all of our questions and was such a delight during our whole tour. I highly recommend her!! "

"By far this tour was the best activity we did in Catania! Mirco was fun and knowledgable. We asked him so many questions not just about food but also life in Italy which he was happy to answer. Each food stop was unique and off the tourist track. Highly recommend to feel like a local for a few hours! "

"Mirco is an excellent guide. We met in the town square by the fish market. From there Mirco led us on a fun food adventure around the center of town. We tried many of the local foods and drinks. Mirco is intelligent knowledgeable and funny. We had a terrific tour. "

"Absolutely unforgettable! This walking food tour in Catania is a vibrant, flavor-packed journey through the heart of Sicilian culture. From the moment we stepped into the bustling fish market, rich with the scent of the sea and the shouts of vendors, we knew we were in for something special. Our guide, Agatha, is a passionate local, who effortlessly blended history, tradition, and humor, making each stop feel like a story unfolding. The fresh fruit and marinated olives were a perfect opener, bursting with Mediterranean sunshine. Then came the sun-dried tomatoes—intensely rich and perfectly chewy—followed by a descent into a hidden lava cave that gave us a breathtaking glimpse into Catania’s volcanic roots. The food got bolder and more unforgettable with every bite. The horse meatballs were tender and surprisingly delicate, while the grilled spring onion wrapped in bacon was smoky, sweet, and utterly addictive. The rice ball filled with donkey meat and pistachios was the most unexpected delight of the day—comforting yet complex, and deeply Sicilian. We ended with a refreshing grenadine paired with soft brioche, the perfect sweet note to close the tour. Throughout, the conversations with locals brought an authenticity that no guidebook could offer. Their stories, traditions, and pride in their cuisine gave every bite deeper meaning. This tour is an absolute must-do in Catania—an immersive, soulful, and delicious adventure that leaves you full in every sense of the word."
