Great Day...so enjoyable! Top notch from start to finish!!

Published on Jan, 2025

Wow, what a nice day! Such a great experience to visit Erice and leave the driving to someone else. We were picked up at appointed spot and driven to Erice. Even though it was out of season and only a few stores were open, we enjoyed exploring the quaint town and had plenty of time to do so. Luckily the day was clear enough for us to see some amazing views! Afterwards we visited the Salt mines and given a thorough explanation of the history, process, and surrounding islands. This was followed by lunch that was a full plate of delicious appetizers, wine, and then a typical pasta dish and dessert. We were so full but not finished yet! Our last stop was a winery/tasting that was not to be missed. We received an informative tour from Andrea and then wine tasting with paired snacks. For the entire trip we had the pleasure of having Francesco as our guide. I can't say enough good things about him. He was extremely accommodating and so kind as we peppered him with way too many questions on the Italian/Sicilian language, culture, people. I felt like we were hanging out with our Italian friend for the day!! Thank you Francesco!!

Nice day trip from Palermo

Published on Oct, 2024

The trip was excellent. We enjoyed the town of Erice and the Marsala wine tasting was great. Unfortunately we did not get to spend any real time at the salt flats and that would have been nice to do but it gives us a reason to do it again. Marco was very knowledgeable and his banter made the drive to by quickly.

Worth the trip

Published on May, 2024

The wine tastings were very informative. Our guide answered all our questions. He was very knowledgeable and explained all the pairing. He even enjoyed some of our humor. Lunch at the olive oil farm was so delicious. Amazing food. Again, our guide, taught us a few worthwhile tips about olive oil. We were there off season. I would have liked to see the presses and the process of their production.

Marsala wines are the new Bourbon

Published on May, 2024

An excellent tour to see different things. The Olive oil was amazing! I loved the Wine tasting and tour so much. I can't wait to drink more marsala wines now that I experienced them.

Enjoyable and full day

Published on May, 2023

A full day with an entertaining and friendly guide. We saw more of the island than we were expecting. The food at lunchtime was also very good. Although foggy at Erice you could tell it was in a beautiful location. We all enjoyed our day.
