The Original Ortigia Street Food and Market Tour (All-Inclusive)
When Sarah from our BugBitten team ran this 3-hour walk through Ortigia, Syracuse's island heart, it was a genuine guided romp through markets, tight lanes, and working-class Sicilian food culture. The tour hits the old market, peels back layers of history, and stops repeatedly to eat and drink properly—not nibbles, actual dishes. Small groups mean the local guide knows who you are. It's food-focused but grounded in place: you're walking where locals shop and eating what they eat, not posing for photos at a curated 'experience.'
