"We’ve been on several walking food tours in our travels to Europe. Luca’s tour of Palermo was one of the best, if not the best. He initially asked about our interests and the types of food we liked and if there were any particular sites we were interested in. He then took us on a tour of the city of Palermo and its food. He was very knowledgeable about the history of the city and introduced us to Palermo’s favorite foods. He made our first first day in Palermo truly memorable and we recommend him highly to any future visitors to Palermo for any tour that he offers."
"Exploring the markets and street food scene in Palermo with Dario was everything we hoped for and more! Thank you Dario, for encouraging us to try new foods. That stigghioli was one of our favorites! But really, everything was delicious, and you were the perfect guide. Grazie mille! "
"We signed up for a Walking Tour of Palermo with Valeria. She is a fountain of knowledge about Palermo and shared its history, culture & traditions with us. She answered all of our questions with ease & just had a lovely personality making the morning together perfect! We thank Valeria for really giving us a comprehensive perspective of this fascinating & vibrant city!"
"We had a great walking tour with Fabio in Palermo. He was very friendly, spoke excellent English, and had extensive knowledge about the city and its history. He really adapted the tour to our interests and gave us many great recommendations, including excellent restaurant tips. Thanks a lot Fabio!"

"I cannot recommend this food tour enough! From start to finish, it was one of the highlights of our trip. Our guide,Dario , was incredibly knowledgeable, passionate, and funny, sharing fascinating history about Palermo. The food stops were amazing—a perfect mix of traditional and hidden gems. We were absolutely stuffed by the end."
"We loved the tour of Palermo churches. Valeria was so helpful, kind and responsive in the run-up to the tour. Then, when Valeria had a conflict Elena stepped in. She was absolutely superb, offering deep and relatable information with a seemingly effortless manner. Smooth, kind, and complete. One of the best guides we have had, ever. "
"Our tour round Kalsa was fascinating, Fabio was passionate about the history, the food and answered all our questions. He was great, highly recommend a tour with Fabio"
"Luca showed us the best sides of Palermo´s delicacies. He is charming and plans the tour according to your interests. He has a deep knowledge of all the best places in town and likes to show them. We had a wonderful day.
Thank you so much"
"We have done an extensive three hour private tour with Fabio and while this sounds like a lot of time, it feels like it has passed so quickly.
Fabio is extremely knowledgeable and an amazing storyteller. We feel lucky to have met him and to have enjoyed this tour together. As frequently travelers we have done many tours over the years and it’s safe to say that this has been one of the best tours we have ever had. I am certain that no matter if you are young or old, if you bring kids, if you come in a group or alone: Fabio will tailor the perfect tour for you.
One thing I would like to specifically find out is that he is extremely attentive - if you ask several questions in a row he will make sure that he gets back to every single one of them, connecting the dots and creating a great story.
We will definitely tour with Fabio again, when we come back :-)
Grazie Mille "
"Dario gave us a delicious introduction to Palermo. Do not eat anything before you meet up! Thank you Dario for a wonderful afternoon and especially the sandwich which will go unnamed :). Delicious!"
