Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"Our group of 4 enjoyed Salvatore's tour even more than we thought we would. We didn't know much about Palermo before our day trip, so we so happy he provided such a good mix of history and local knowledge of the city, Sicily, and his neighborhood. We highly recommend this tour with Salvatore and hope to book with him whenever we come back to Palermo."
"I have taken this tour with Salvatore twice. The first time I was traveling alone and was so impressed with Salvatore's depth of knowledge, love for his city and his kindness and warmth. All of these qualities make him an outstanding tour guide. When I returned to Palermo with my husband, I knew I wanted him to experience this tour with Salvatore. He loved it AND I appreciated doing this tour again because it is hard to absorb so much rich history in one experience. I cannot recommend him more highly. When I return to Palermo, I hope he is offering another tour experience is is available as a guide to other parts of Palermo. Grazie mille, Salvatore. "
"A big thank you to Salvatore for a very interesting and comprehensive tour! Together we explored streets of Palermo that took us outside the main hustle and bustle. Throughout our tour Salvatore shared facts, history and anecdotes bringing Palermo to life for us! We learned so much and felt we had the best possible introduction to the city! "
When you hit the road and land in a new city like Palermo, there's an exciting way to dive into its soul: personalized local tours. Forget the typical touristy routes – these tours are like having a local friend show you around all the cool spots.
Imagine having someone who lives and breathes Palermo spill its secrets. That's what local guides bring to the table. They know the hidden alleys, the best bites, and stories that never made it to the guidebooks. Whether you're into munching through food tours, wandering the city's streets, or going off the beaten path, a local guide hooks you up with a private tour that's authentically Palermo.
The best part? These tours are all about you. No herding in big groups or rushing through places you're not interested in. With private tours, you're the boss. Whether it's snapping pics at iconic landmarks, diving into history, or checking out the art scene, the tour is tuned to your vibes at your tempo.
But it doesn't stop at city limits. Day trips let you escape the urban jungle and explore nearby wonders. And if you're just setting foot in Palermo, kickstart tours give you a taste of everything. Think of it as a crash course in Palermo awesomeness, guided by a local who knows the city like the back of their hand.
So, next time you're in Palermo, ditch the ordinary. Grab a local tour and unlock the city's real magic – the stories, flavors, and places that make it uniquely Palermo. Get ready to explore like a local!

"We had a great experience with Karolina! She took the time to modify our tour a bit to meet our request. The tour was very informative and interesting - a great way to start your exploration of Palermo. Highly recommended."
"Dario was such a knowledgeable and fun guide to the food and culture of Palermo. This was a special way for us to begin our time in Sicily—understanding and connecting with a Palermo local and eating delicious food!"
"Our hostess was exceptionally knowledgeable and shared that knowledge very effectively. Her passion for her profession and for the city of Palermo was off the charts good!"
"Like many people who’ve reviewed Luca, he is as friendly, kind and accommodating as they say! Actually more than the food & history tour, as educational/fascinating/yummy as it was, our conversations with him were what we enjoyed the most. They were genuine and meaningful. Also, the first gelato place he brought us decided to close that day (haha!), but he immediately took us to another gelato shop. Using that opportunity to walk us along the coast, revealing more history, telling more stories, and we had AMAZING gelato! And this may be important to those who are in our demographic, we are two girls in our twenties who know nothing about Sicily. Luca made us feel comfortable & also safe. Took good care of us, always checked on our hungry levels & our energy levels which we actually deeply appreciated. Would recommend him to anyone! Thank you, Luca! 😊😊"
"Luca was very nice and accommodating. Wish we had a longer tour."
"We did the 10 tastings of Palermo with Dario and it was wonderful. We tried lots of local cuisine plus some funky ones after he made sure we were okay time that, and we got some steps in while exploring the city. Highly recommend!"
"Dario was super knowledgeable, friendly and welcoming, he took us to some local places in Palermo where he enjoys to eat and drink - which were all fantastic! We had a great time and the food was incredible! "
