シラキュース・オルティギア - Do Eat Betterによるシチリアストリートフードツアー

We had such a lovely experience on this food tour and it ended up being one of our highlights in Ortigia. Our guide, Iryna, grew up in Ortigia, and you could really tell how passionate she is about the area. She was so knowledgeable, shared lots of interesting history along the way, and even told us about nearby places like Noto. She was also a great communicator and made everyone feel welcome and included throughout the tour. We stopped at Casa del Broderi to try their famous panini sandwiches, which definitely lived up to the hype. We also sampled traditional fried fish from a local lady, which was so good that we went back several times afterwards during our stay! We tried delicious arancini from a family-run business, followed by beautiful fresh granita made using traditional ingredients and methods. To finish, we enjoyed cannoli and limoncello, and loved the cannoli so much that we returned for gelato and more cannoli almost every evening for the rest of our trip. What I really liked about this tour was that it wasn’t just about the food – it also gave us a real insight into the history, culture and local traditions of Ortigia. Iryna’s local knowledge and enthusiasm made the experience feel really authentic. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Syracuse and Ortigia, especially if you love good food and want to discover places you might not otherwise find on your own.

We had a great time on our food tour with Iryna. We had excellent food choices and Iryna provided lots of interesting facts about the food and culture of the Siracusa/Ortigia location. We would definitely recommend.

Beautiful food tour that incorporates a pleasant walk through the island and some urban hidden gems of Ortigia. Great selection of fresh and local dishes, including arancini, fried fish and desserts. Tour was friendly toward dietary restrictions. Maria was a fantastic and friendly guide. Highly recommend!

A fabulous tour with Brenda - some wonderful insights into the history of Ortigia as we walked. Super street food at each stop - a thoroughly enjoyable experience that I would wholeheartedly recommend. Thank you!

This was a fantastic experience with our guide Iryna. It is such a special opportunity to learn about a historic place from a person who grew up there. She was extremely engaging, informative and fun. We tried foods we otherwise wouldn’t have and learned a lot not only about food but Ortigia. It was very fun! Highly recommend!!

Giuseppe was an awesome tour guide! He not only took us for delicious local food and desserts but we learned about the history, culture and art along the way. As a bonus we also got to try different liqueurs like limoncello, pistachio and more. Get ready to turn around Ortigia, get some steps, eat like a local and learn along the way!

Syracuse is beautiful, and walking through Ortigia towards the waterfront is an excellent experience. If you accompany him in trying the typical food, it will be even better.

Maria our guide gave a wonderful description of Siracusa history, family life and food across the ages, but the food we ate at local eateries we wouldn’t normally choose was amazing, such a great experience!

Guisseppe was a great guide! Gave us great context and explanation for everything! We came hungry and even by the end, we were so stuffed! There was so much great food. Definitely one of the best food tours we’ve taken!

The tasting with Giuseppe was fantastic; we had the opportunity to taste local specialties and benefit from Giuseppe's anecdotes about the places we visited. Thanks to him for his good humor and contagious smile. We had an excellent time, and we highly recommend it!
