An unique and delicious way to discover Palermo - Annalisa´s passion for Palermo and its food culure was evident from the moment we met her. We got to enjoy incredible food while learning about the city´s history in a fun and interactive way. The tour took us to local spots we would never have found or tried on our own, such as the spleen sandwich or brioche con gelato. A fun experience for every foodie visiting Palermo!

Food tour worthwhile even in rain - We enjoyed a private tour with Carlos as no other guests had registered. We were able to ask a lot of questions and Carlos knew an answer to almost everything :) He was friendly and also told us a lot about life in Palermo. We ate the food in a variety of places in Palermo, including the Capo market. Everything was very delicious and there was more than enough to taste.

Much more than just great food! - We really enjoyed our tour and would definitely recommend. Got to see a lot of the city and eat some good food for sure. Our guide Annalisa did a nice job explaining the history of the food we were eating and its cultural significance. What really stood out and made the tour special though was her obvious pride in her city and how the tour was actually her sharing what was personally special and meaningful for her. This included not just food but everything from Palermo’s place in history to family traditions and customs to contemporary social and political movements. This wasn’t just someone with a map reciting information from a guidebook but a truly personal, passionate, interesting and warm (and tasty!) tour of Palermo. Highly recommend.
