Great way to spend the morning. - The guide was great and the food was delicious. Much better than doing a cruise ship’s excursion. He was knowledgeable and helpful. Great experience.

Great Food and Sights in Sicily - The Sicilian Street food tour was fabulous! We not only got to eat wonderful food, and lots of it, but we also got to see two beautiful cathedrals as well. Our tour guide, Roberto was excellent! He spoke perfect English, and you could tell he absolutely loved his job. He was a native, and so proud of his heritage. He was so informative and gave us so much information. I highly recommend you taking this tour for a nice taste of Sicilian food and a great overview of Messina. Just make sure you go hungry!

Food Tour in Messina - This was an amazing tour. Roberto, our guide was such a wonderful man. Knowledgeable, spoke excellent English, and you could tell he was so proud to be able to share his city of Messina with us. The food stops were great! A good variety of Sicilian food and nice cafes. But, the two churches were stunning. The noon performance at the one church was indescribable. I highly recommend this tour if you're coming to Messina. And, I highly recommend Roberto.
