"The tour guide who showed up for the tour was not Valeria. I do not recall her name but she was lovely. We had a great time discussing the history of Palermo, going to two markets and exploring some churches. "

Best guide and tour!
"Fabio was amazing. He curated the tour to our needs. He was knowledgeable with the Sicilian history and the evolution of Palermo and its people. We were a group of 5 (from 50-77years old) and everyone had a fantastic time. Fabio took the time to answer all of our questions and would elaborate to give us even more information and history. We loved it. At the end of the tour he went out of his way to find us a wonderful place to eat and enjoy the remainder of our afternoon. If you are coming to Palermo and are looking for a guide, Fabio is a must."
"Did not have the pleasure of meeting Valeria but Laora was absolutely amazing!! Her enthusiasm and professionalism were outstanding and we would recommend her as one of the BEST!"

Great evening
"We had a brilliant couple of hours with Dario. We’d not have tried the street food or wine without being with Dario and it was brilliant to get a bit of an insight into Palermo and life in Palermo!!"
"Dario was prompt and communicated early and ahead of time with us. His knowledge was deep, and he educated us not only Palermo food, but also its history and culture. Most importantly, the food tour was excellent and he was more than happy to tailor to our tastes. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and generally a delight to be around. Don't hesitate to book with Dario!"
"We had a fantastic morning tour with Valeria, where she shared her wealth of knowledge about Palermo and its history. It was hot, but Valeria did a great job of keeping us in the shade :) "
"We had a great tour with Loredana. We tried foods we might not have, we saw all the top sights and learnt extra bits of history from a local. Loredana’s English was excellent, good fun to be with and we would highly recommend her. "
"We had a fantastic afternoon with Dario. He is super knowledgeable about food and life in Palermo, and took into account our tasting reactions in guiding us to the next one. I highly recommend Dario for a food tasting tour!"
"We three sisters had such a fun night with Dario. It was a great intro to a long weekend in Palermo. Dario is funny, charming and highly knowledgeable about his home city. Plenty of food, spritz and wine consumed! We couldn’t have asked for a better host ☺️🥰"
"Fabio is a native of Palermo and it shows. Lots of knowledge both of the history of Palermo/Sicily but with passion for the role an desire to show you the city in a personal way. We did a 3 hour private tour and it was excellent. Recommend Fabio highly"
