Overview

Enjoy this 2h30-street food tasting tour into one of the most enchanting and magic cities of the Southern Italy. Walk into the old town and taste the best local street food. Be impressed by the taste of the "rustico", soft puff pastry disc filled with mozzarella, tomato and bechamel, the flavour of local cheese, the crunchy tarallini, the "pasticciotto" freshly baked: a short pastry stuffed with custard and even more!
See the jewels of Baroque architecture like Basilica of Santa Croce and Piazza Sant'Oronzo with the "Sedile", the old city Hall. Let yourself be attracted by the soft atmosphere in Piazza Duomo.
This tour is the perfect formula to join a visit to the city to tasting of local specialties!
