My family and I had a wonderful food tour in Taormina with Christopher and his wife Barbara! They took us to their favorite places, told great stories, shared local pro tips to help us enjoy our vacation, and we're just warm, genuine people! They made our first day very welcoming and fun! Our Sicilian adventure started out perfectly. Highly recommend this tour and these locals. Thank you Christopher and Barbara!

A Fantastic Day!
Our food tour with Barbara and Chris was just perfect and a real highlight to our time in Sicily for our Anniversary
Taormina is one of the most beautiful places we have ever been
The time spent felt like we were with friends as Barbara and Chris were so warm, friendly and accommodating
We visited some wonderful places and tried Arancino, sampled pistachio in different ways at Nova and even made our own Cannoli at a family ran Bakery
We had a wonderful time from start to finish and would definitely recommend this tour to anyone that wants to make their trip extra special
Thank you Barbara & Chris!!

Great Tour
We had a great time with Asya! Smart and super sweet. We had a large group of 11 and one with food allergies and she accommodated perfectly which is hard to do but did it with ease. She engaged the whole group and taught us a lot about the city while eating amazing food along the way. Come hungry :)

Fun experience!
Asya was a great guide, showing us around the town while sampling great food and drinks! The personal connections she had with the restaurants and bakeries made the tour even better - especially the cannoli magician Roberto! She was super fun, and her knowledge of Sicilian history is amazing. She had great recommendations for places to visit, restaurants to try, and overly tourist places to stay away from, Thanks Asya!
