The very first food tour launch in Palermo. Join us in a three-hour strolling around the backstreets of the city center guided by a young Palermitan who will share with you stories and legends only renowned among locals.
We have an easy-going approach with travelers making them feel like friends, not like clients! We will take you to the same places where our guides go to eat and drink with friends. We will share with you the best tips to enjoy Palermo and Sicily like a local. We will share our personal stories to make you feel what being a Sicilian means.
You will taste traditional street foods at vendors who have been carefully selected for the quality of food and the authenticity of the location. There are no tourist traps on this tour! Travelers will step into hidden corners and try foods they wouldn't dare to do alone. The amount of food we offer on this tour replaces a full meal.

Alexandro made the whole experience fun. He also provided some places that we could visit off tour. That was very helpful.

We did the street food tour our first night in Palermo and it was the perfect way to see and taste the city. Way too much food so be careful how much you eat at the start but it was a great experience even in the pouring rain.
