Host was a lovely young woman and gave us history of the city , stories about the heads of the Sicilian man and woman THE FOOD WAS AS DESCRIBED and the highlight was mixing with fellow travellers and being social Thought the tour could have included pasta Norma sample The night tour doesn’t include the markets so may be best to do the day tour

What a fantastic introduction to Sicily, Palermo and its fantastic food. Dario was a fantastic guide, very passionate about his hometown of Palermo who took us to many great spots around the city. Great value for money for the amount of food and drinks you get to try. Would highly recommended :)
