Fantastic food tour in Ortigia! - This tour was so much fun! For 3+ hours Tonia led an informative, interesting and delicious tour around the little island of Ortigia. Sharing her passion for vegan food without... read more any judgement, while wrapping it around interesting sites along the way, Tonia is a terrific guide! She knows the history, the best places to eat and where to go for views. And, she’s fun! I’m Whole Food Plant Based, not fully vegan, and this tour was perfect. You have to be vegan to enjoy the food Tonia samples - you’ll love it!! The only thing I wish I’d done differently was do it on my first day and not last so I could revisit all the great places! 10/10!!!
