      Food tours in Taramino

      "We had a good tour in Taramino wit Asya. Asya it extremely well versed in the history of Taramino. All the food stops were excellent. We had some of the best cannolis I’ve ever had. We had excellent gelato. The rice balls we had we both made up of tomato and pistachio. The final stop was ours, calamari, eggplant, Parm, and a bottle of wine He certainly got your moneys worth out of the store. She was very pleasant and did an excellent job."

      A Day with the Locals!

      "My family and I had a wonderful food tour in Taormina with Christopher and his wife Barbara! They took us to their favorite places, told great stories, shared local pro tips to help us enjoy our vacation, and we're just warm, genuine people! They made our first day very welcoming and fun! Our Sicilian adventure started out perfectly. Highly recommend this tour and these locals. Thank you Christopher and Barbara!"

      Great Tour

      "We had a great time with Asya! Smart and super sweet. We had a large group of 11 and one with food allergies and she accommodated perfectly which is hard to do but did it with ease. She engaged the whole group and taught us a lot about the city while eating amazing food along the way. Come hungry :)"

      Fun experience!

      "Asya was a great guide, showing us around the town while sampling great food and drinks! The personal connections she had with the restaurants and bakeries made the tour even better - especially the cannoli magician Roberto! She was super fun, and her knowledge of Sicilian history is amazing. She had great recommendations for places to visit, restaurants to try, and overly tourist places to stay away from, Thanks Asya!

      The best Taormina food and culture tour

      "Asya was wonderful!! We started our trip with her tour and I’m so happy we did. She had the best balance of history and fun with incredible pairings of Sicilian food and drinks. She was so knowledgeable on the area and Sicilian roots. We wouldn’t have discovered the best local spots without her! "
