The best way to visit Palermo: our walking food tours
Palermo is not only the political capital of Sicily but also a cradle for culture, history, art and of course gastronomy.
Many people from very different backgrounds lived in Palermo and by the time of your first walk into its lively and colourful city centre, you shall be amazed by the fragrances of the topical dishes, the same ones since many generations.
Sicilian weather makes Palermo the perfect venue in any season: winters are sunny and summers great on the beaches, bathing in Crystal blue sea such as that of Mondello, only a couple of kilometres from the historical centre of the city.
We have created two special tours between tradition and innovative street food, in order to let you discover a secret Palermo, made of delicacies and stunning flavours capable of triggering unforgettable experiences.
