Activity itinerary

Statua di Messina Riconoscente

  • 45m
Meet your guide in the heart of Messina—then set off on a delicious journey through the city’s lively streets! Just nearby, you’ll savour a classic Messina treat: refreshing granita, silky-smooth and full of flavour, perfectly paired with a soft, freshly baked brioche for an unforgettable tasting experience.

Piazza del Duomo

  • 45m
Near Piazza Duomo, you’ll dive straight into Messina’s street-food tradition with a tasting of focaccia messinese—soft and fluffy, topped with tomatoes, escarole, anchovies, and tuma cheese. Fresh from the oven and full of bold, local flavour, it’s the perfect match with a cold local beer, making for a simple, authentic, and satisfying food experience.

Piazza Fontana Gennaro

  • 45m
The tour continues with one of Sicily’s most iconic bites: the arancino. Crispy and golden on the outside, warm and flavourful on the inside, you’ll taste this beloved street food filled with rich ragù, melted cheese, or seasonal ingredients—an irresistible classic that captures the heart of Sicilian cuisine.

Via Giuseppe Garibaldi

  • 45m
The tour comes to a sweet close with Sicily’s most famous dessert: the cannolo. A crisp, golden shell filled to order with creamy ricotta, lightly sweetened and often finished with pistachios or chocolate chips, it’s the perfect final taste—ending the experience on a truly classic Sicilian note.
