Sehr interessante Führung durch die Geschichte der Seife mit anschaulicher eigener Herstellung von individueller Seife. Alessandro begeisterte uns sehr.

Un posto molto originale e carino da visitare, Alessandro ci ha guidati in questo percorso di racconti sul sapone. Devo dire che non ci aspettavamo granchè ma alla fine siamo rimasti molto soddisfatti e consiglierei il pubblico a visitarlo.

benedetta t

esperienza molto interessante, per adulti e ragazzi. Abbiamo imparato molte cose grazie ad Alessandro, ideatore e gestore del museo. La sua capacità di coinvolgere nella storia del posto e delle tradizioni ci ha accompagnato alla scoperta di questo prodotto semplice che usiamo tutti i giorni.

Bellissima esperienza, Alessandro ha la capacità di farti rivivere la storia del sapone e di emozionarti con i suoi racconti. Il museo è situato in un paesaggio meraviglioso, fra oltre dieci varietà di ulivi il tutto fra le montagne e il mare. Il prezzo è simbolico considerando la presentazione di Alessandro. Lo consiglio vivamente.

Tour interessante e molto ben orchestrato dal proprietario. Da consigliare vivamente a grandi e piccini.

Molto interessante la visita dell'Uliveto, la spiegazione su come viene mantenuto solo con metodi naturali, altrettanto interessante la visita del museo con la storia di come veniva prodotto il sapone dalle origini ai nostri giorni, ottimi prodotti anche da provare.

Ci siamo recati in questo museo, a pochi Km da Sciacca, attirati dalle recensioni positive. Nonostante all'apparenza risulti solo un vecchio casale di campagna, appena entrati si dimostra essere invece un'attività costruttiva ma allo stesso tempo divertente. La visita guidata viene svolta da Alessandro, un ragazzo professionale che svolge il suo lavoro con energia e dedizione, ma soprattutto balza subito all'occhio la sua competenza nel conoscere il proprio territorio. Molto carina per bambini ma anche adulti la possibilità di creare dei propri saponi con essenze e piante a propria scelta. Consiglio vivamente a tutti i lettori la visita di questa affascinate perla nascosta di Sciacca.

Das Seifenmuseum liegt in mitten eines Olivenhains, schon die Anfahrt (für die man am besten Googlemaps nutzt) ist ein Traum. Die ausschließlich geführten Touren dauern ca. 1 Stunde in der Alessandro mit Begeisterung von der Olivenernte über die Geschichte der Seife bis zur heutigen Produktion von Naturseife erzählt. Er spricht perfekt Englisch und sogar ein paar Worte deutsch. Ich kann den Besuch des Museums nur weiterempfehlen, es war ein tolles Erlebnis so in die Traditionen Siziliens "einzutauchen".
