A very special experience!
This was a wonderful experience. We learned so much about Sicilian cooking and traditions while. We can’t wait to try our new recipes at home. Alice and Francesco are lovely hosts and made this day so special. Highly recommend!!!

A memorable and livshopping and cooking experience with Sicilian Chefs Alice and Francesco in Palermo by Teatro Massimo!
I had so much fun picking out food at the lively Capo market with hospitable chef hosts, Alice and Francesco! After discussing options for lunch, Alice expertly picked out beautiful tuna for our appetizer and swordfish for our main course. We had a fantastic time choosing fresh artichokes, tomatoes, onions, shallots. Alice also picked out fresh, crusty and warm wood oven baked Semolina bread We had an excellent time cooking dinner together, giving excellent instruction. I appreciated Alice and Francesco warm and welcoming nature. We had wonderful conversation about food and life. They were both very knowledgeable about food and cooking regional specialties. I felt very much at home and was happy to practice making Cavitelli and Orchietti ( my son’s favorite) pasta. We also made a wonderful and simple ricotta and almond based frozen dessert, I appreciated sharing the fruits of our labor for lunch. I also look forward to making these recipes that I received from Alice and Francesco for my friends and family at home. Time very well spent and enjoyed! Gratzia Mille!

Favorite experience in Palermo
We had a fabulous experience! Alice and Francesco were so easy to learn from and spend our time with! I highly recommend anyone looking to experience Sicily’s authenticity do this! It was literally my favorite experience in Palermo! We would do it again in a heartbeat!

No show!
So we booked this weeks in advance. Went to the meeting spot at 10am as instructed, and no one showed up. Not sure if this was the fault of trip advisor or the cooking class operator, but not a good experience. Our tickets were regunded

This was such a wonderful...
This was a fantastic way to spend a day in Palermo. Alice and Francesco were above and beyond wonderful throughout the entire experience. The small group setting made the market tour easier to navigate. It was both fun and informative, and we thoroughly enjoyed cooking with the ingredients we purchased. Each course was thoughtfully planned, and we had a blast learning about the history of the dishes and the culture surrounding the food. We can't wait to come back!

Why this scores 62
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Capo Market Tour and Sicilian Cooking Class: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Palermo.
How much does Capo Market Tour and Sicilian Cooking Class cost?
+
Prices start at $70 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Palermo usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Capo Market Tour and Sicilian Cooking Class take?
+
Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Palermo is not rushed.
Is Capo Market Tour and Sicilian Cooking Class worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.4/5 across 7 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Palermo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Capo Market Tour and Sicilian Cooking Class?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Capo Market Tour and Sicilian Cooking Class suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Capo Market Tour and Sicilian Cooking Class?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Palermo can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Palermo and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Capo Market Tour and Sicilian Cooking Class start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Palermo within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Palermo?
+
On Outty we rank every Palermo experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Palermo Pizza & Gelato Cooking Class with Meal & Wine, Palermo Food Tour: 10+ Tastings of Arancini, Cannoli, Wine & More, Palermo Sicilian Street Food Tour: Small Group by Do Eat Better. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Palermo?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Palermo?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
