What you’ll do

We will greet and welcome you at the pedestrian street of Via Principe di Belmonte, few minutes away from the port and the two main opera houses downtown. All Streaty guides are local and know their stuff and you will realize this as soon as the tour starts. The first place is largely renowned among Palermitans as the top deli shop in town and it is basically invisible for non locals.  Along the walk you will have the chance to admire some historical attractions and learn about facts you wouldn’t read on guidebooks. Take a comfort seat, raise a glass of Sicilian wine and enjoy a delicious selection of fine and rare products, such as the Tuna bottarga. Streaty tours are not just about eating, we want you to feel and experience the city in deep uncovering some hidden gems, like the second-hand street bookshop. Feel free to bring a book and exchange it with the host! Yes, we will feed you with a little bit of culture before reaching the pasta stop! We will have a table reserved for you and the other travel mates in one of the best traditional trattorias in town, it’s pasta time! The pasta with sardines is probably the “localest” of the recipes in the capital of Sicily, a recipes that can tell you centuries of the local history. A very peculiar taste that you must try it if you want to understand the local cuisine.
We won’t let your mouth dry. You will get wine at three out of the five stops. You will raise the third glass of wine tasting some interesting Sicilian cheese. If you are a cheese lover, stick around your guide!
