Popular Tours in Palermo

Glad to have the opportunity to leave a review. We were lucky enough to get Francesca on a Sunday. She is knowledgeable as well as flexible ( given we are both over 65) Francesca was able to impart a wealth of knowledge we would never have known otherwise. She also showed us many locations of historical significance and explained their background. As well as this we visited the local markets and streets and , Francesca explained some of the Palmero culture which were just as much fun. Not to mention a couple of little shop detours on the way. Our trip to Palermo was greatly enriched by Francesca’s tour. Grazie Mille Francesca !

Fabrizio is super likable and knows a lot about his home city. During the tour we tried the typical food of Palermo and learned the origin of the names of the food that partly differ to the Italian names. It was also possible to ask him about the Sicilian lifestyle and he showed us his home town from a personal point of view which was very interesting. Of course the history of this stunning city is remarkable and we highly regret that we could not spend more time there. We promissed to come back and we can really recommend the tour with Fabrizio.

I wouldn't say this is the most comprehensive street food tour (so if you are looking for a lot of street food, this is probably middle ground). But it was very interesting walking tour also with history and nice out of the way stories about various things, with a fair amount of street food as part of it, so I would say it was a good mix of both street food and walking history tour (if that is what you are interested in, which for us was a good mix). Guide was very interesting and informed also

My tour guide was amazing. My time in Sicily was limited and I had a rather ambitions list of attractions to explore. She called me the day before of the tour to ask my about my preferences and she planned a schedule that covered all the things that I wanted to see. She even offered to use her scooter and she took me to amazing sites. She made me feel very comfortable and I had a great time with her. I strongly recommend her.

Fabrizio was the difference between a good trip and an excellent experience. He arrived at the appointed time and soon had us entwined in the Palermo life style. The history of Palermo lifestyle and history was explained and how it translated into present circumstances. The food bits were excellent as well! Capo market was explored and the local delicacies were explained and tasted. You must try the Milza!
