Syracuse Ortigia: Sicilian Street Food Tour & Market TastingYou walk through Ortigia's markets and squares with a local guide, stopping at four food points: arancini and fried fish near the Temple of Apollo, impanata in Piazza Archimede, local cheeses and cured meats at the market, and granita and cannoli in the historic center.

Groups stay small, and the guide explains the history and stories behind each dish as you go.Is it for me?Right for travelers who want to eat like locals rather than as tourists, and who have time to walk through markets and squares instead of sitting at one table.
