Fabrizio was a great guide, he goes above and beyond to make sure we got what we wanted and needed. The market he took us to was the best one in the city. He’s knowledgeable and his English is perfect. We would certainly recommend his tour.

Some history of Palermo, explanation of the sites, a tour of the cathedral and a multitude of anecdotes that gave my husband and me a feel for the geography and culture of Palermo and Sicily. And of course a major taste of delicious street food: arancine (rice balls), panelle (chickpea fritters), crocche (potato croquettes), cannoli and sfincione (a type of pizza). Fabrizio delivered all of this in an informative and fun tour. A delightful way to spend three hours. It is a highlight of our trip. We highly recommend this fabulous tour with Fabrizio!

Fabrizio is a great tour guide! We had a lot of fun and learned a lot. He told us some interesting facts and fun stories! Palermo is absolutely beautiful and getting a tour helped us understand the history of the city better, it wouldn't be the same experience without Fabrizio! :)

We enjoyed the tour with Fabrizio so much. It was just great. He is an expert on the history of Palermo, the city, the people and all buildings including the cathedral, the Massimo theater, the Pretoria fountain and of course the markets and Quattro Canti. Fabrizio gave us a lot of tips about typical dishes, including desserts that we tried (e.g. Cannolo) and were just as enthusiastic about. We arrived the evening before and after breakfast the tour with Fabrizio was our first action. That was exactly right, the best we could do.

Fabrizio our tour guide has amazing knowledge of the area and a great command of English and everything was well explained. The meeting point is easy to find and the tour was punctual. The pace of the tour is perfect and everyone was always included. We were treated to street food on our way round as an introduction to what we might find when we were exploring on our own.
Sicily has a complicated history but Fabrizio enabled us all to get a good grasp of it.
Places not included on the tour were pointed out so that we may find them and visit later.
Excellent tour.
