Amazing!

Gisella & Luca were professional and knowledgeable! I learned all about the history of the food as well as the city! Gisella was able to answer every question about food as well as architecture and history. She made the tour personal, not scripted! I look forward to bringing my daughters on this tour with Gisella when we return to Sicily. Grazie mille

Hi Suz! Thanks a lot for your lovely review! We are happy to know that you enjoyed Gisella's style! You caught the real spirit of Streaty tours: to experience the real essence of the cities where we operate with a real local guide, and taste their culture, history and traditions starting from their iconic food!

We hope to host you again in the other cities where Streaty works: Catania of course, but also Palermo, Neaples, Florence, Rome and Venice!

Hugs From the Streaty crew!!

Amazing!

My gf and I had a wonderful experience with Gisella as our tour guide. It was off season so it ended up being just the 2 of us with Gisella on the tour and we had a great time. She was friendly and knowledgeable and took her time to show us around Catania. We’re still raving about the delicious aroncino that we ate. Definitely recommend this tour if you’re in town.

Amazing!

Great experience. Interesting group of people and a chance to taste local food that I wouldn’t normally try. Our guide Giuseppe was amazing. We learned more in a few hours from him than we would have in a week by ourselves.
