5 star Angelo - Angelo was very knowledgeable, friendly and made this tour what it is. A definite must see- the food and drink was incredible and it was great to hear about the history of the city from a true Palermo native. A must do!

Palermo food is amazing! - Went with Angelo, he was super informative and to the point. The food tour is probably the best way to start, it takes you through some of the more interesting parts of Palermo.

Well worth the money to get a good experience of traditional food - We had Angelo as our guide and he was lovely. Always willing to answer any questions was bright and bubbly all of the time (even tho he was having a tough emotional time out of work, he did not let this affect his professionalism or his customer service skills) You could probably knock some things off as none of us wanted to drink alcohol and this could be taken off the tour in future. I can’t believe we ate spleen and lung, it was certainly an experience. We were lucky there were smaller than your normal group and we all got on which was nice. You realise you don’t actually walk that much in between stops Definitely recommend

Good times eating our way through Palermo! - Angelo was an excellent guide. He’s friendly, outgoing, knowledgeable, and very personable. The tour was relaxing, and even though it was filled with couples from all over, it was a good time had by all. Angelo explained the gentrification that is occurring around the old markets. The spleen sandwich turned out to be a must try. Book the tour, it’s well worth it.

Excellent guided tour - Comprehensive insight into the local food of Sicily by an informative friendly guide with a good sense of humour. This was the beginning of our 3 week road trip and an absolute must-do that set us up not only versing us in the tasty delicacies that have helped us understand the menus when in Sicilian restaurants but also some of the history and culture.

Brilliant introduction to Palermo - We went on this tour instead of going out for dinner on our first night in Palermo. It was a brilliant introduction to the city & the differences in the lovely cuisine of this part of Sicily. Our guide Simono was excellent - very knowledgeable & funny. We were very well fed & well entertained. This was a small group tour of just 10 people which felt like the perfect size for this type of event. I’d highly recommend this to anyone visiting Palermo.

Grazie Alessandro! - Alessandro was amazing! Not just a food tour, but a cultural one too, we got to know so much about the city as we moved through the markets and stopped at his favourite places - he walked past so many people that knew him well and he was so personable! And as a chef, he spoke so well about the food we tried. Highly recommend a morning street food tour with Alessandro!

Fantastic tour - Fantastic tour! Alessandro, the host was awesome - a real font of knowledge about the street food scene, and also about the history of the city itself. We learned so much, the food was delicious (and a lot, come hungry!). Would highly recommend, it made our trip 10x better
