Learn and Taste Palermo - An enjoyable few hours learning about Palermo and tasting the street foods of the city. A nice pace with stops to offer breaks in the tour. Opportunity to try a unique dish if you wish to get out of your comfort zone, or pass.

Discovering Palermo - Awesome tour of Palermo. Fabrizio, being a Palermo native, knew the city inside & out. We saw sights we never would have seen on our own and tasted many Palermo delicacies. Highly Recommended!

Great tour...a good mix of food and history! - Fabrizio was brilliant. We met and set off on time. Fabrizio is an amazing guide ... a Palermo native. He was so welcoming, funny and knowledgeable. It was so much more than a food tour....we learnt so much about the history of Palermo and Fabrizio was more than happy to answer all of our questions. The Capo market was great...my husband tried the Vastedda!! I wasn't as brave! We didn't manage ti get into the Cathedral as there was a wedding on that day (they don't publish the weddings so it's a case of turning up and hoping that there aren't any ceremonies on).....but this really didn't put a dampener on anything as Fabrizio took us on an extend we'd tour to see more attractions. Definitely recommend this tour, and any with Fabrizio as he is clearly passionate about his work!

Fabrizio is the best! - We loved our Palermo food and city tour with Fabrizio! He was prompt and thorough in communicating with us before the day of the tour, and he was on-time meeting us at our cruise ship on the day of our tour. All of the food we sampled was delicious and we appreciated learning about the cultural significance of the various foods. We also enjoyed Fabrizio’s tour of Old Town and learning about its history and historical sites.
