Great tour for families - Giusi was fabulous on our tour with three young children (6, 4, and 1). She kept everyone engaged and eating, and was very accommodating. We had a great tour and highly recommend to other families. It was a great way to experience Palermo in a short amount of time!

Like back in nonna's kitchen - Giusi was excellent! Very personable and we loved listening to the history of the city. Felt like family. We all told stories of growing up in Sicilian families in the US and the food really took us back home to nonna's kitchen. The pizza was absolutely incredible! Thr arancini was top as well! You will enjoy this tour and the stops along the way!

A foodie tour with some history and culture thrown in. Great fun and great food! - Our guide was Giusi and she was fantastic! She was interested in the people in her group and also told us something about each food, where it originated and the history behind it, and the history of the restaurant that was serving it. We ate a variety of delicious food in places slightly off the beaten path that we would not have discovered otherwise. We also met some really cool and fun other people. We also had a special Palermo type of refreshing drink, red or white wine, beer and water. Excellent tour away from the main drag, with a guide who loves her city, her culture, their food and connecting people to those things. 5 stars would absolutely recommend!
