Unmissable street food experience!! - Wow! What a fantastic tour! Our guide, Angelo, was amazing and we got to try so much incredible food as well as find out lots about Palermo!! The markets are brilliant, but would have been a bit overwhelming on our own so we were very glad we had Angelo to show us around! The eating suggestions we were sent after the tour were also excellent - genuine, authentic food and restaurants! Angelo also very kindly helped us out with a specific request for a sunny, Sunday lunch venue! Thank you so much, Angelo!!

Fantastic Palermo Street Food Tour - Alessandro provided my wife and I with the most memorable experience imaginable. He brought the diverse cultures of Palermo to life! He gave us historical insights into the influence of many other countries’ cultures over the past centuries that have formed the wide range of foods within Palermo’s local markets. His personal network of the owners who made the street food allowed us to have warm receptions from all of them, as well as behind the scenes look at how they operate as family businesses over many generations. Alessandro’s expertise as a chef made each food stop very interesting as we learned not only about Sicily’s unique food, but also the preparation and cooking techniques that made the tasting experience so special for us. He also has a very fun and engaging personality allowing us to relax and soak in the way of life of the people of Palermo.

Recommend highly - Had a wonderful street food tour with Alessandro! Good eats, insightful stories behind each delicacy, and he provided connection among us all, as well as humor. Would highly recommend him as he was clearly known to many of the street vendors and had stories of their backgrounds to tell. Grazie, Alessandro!

Outstanding Food Tour - Alessandro was an excellent guide, he gave us more than a culinary tour but immersed us in the culture of Palermo. He made us feel safe and comfortable in the markets. An excellent tour that we would highly recommend to others.
