Overview

This is your chance to try the best flavors that Palermo and its long tradition has to offer. Led by an expert local guide you will enter various food places to try the most traditional Palermitan recipes, such as the pasta with sardines, the cacio all'argentiera or the veal rolls. You will visit places you would hardly find on your own, you will taste food samples totally unknown among the tourists. Your local guide will unveil the secrets of each recipes and its produce. We only go to family-run restaurants and delis that serve authentic and top quality delicacies, so forget tourist traps. This tour has been designed for travelers who want to experience new flavors, learn about local culture and make new friends. All guides are Palermitan, professional but also very laidback, so feel free to ask anything you have in mind and get ready to raise the glass multiple times.
You will walk through the areas of the modern city center and Castellammare district. Come hungry!
