Alessio was very knowledge about the area, and really accommodating of our needs, especially my elderly mom. The weather was rough but the salt flats were fascinating and the Marsala wine tasting excellent!

Great trip to be able to go look at the salt flats and have some awesome wine tasting. Alessio was such an awesome host - lots of passion for his work and knowledgeable

Excursion was really great. Alessio showed and told us more than expected. As we had previously already visited salt fields, he slightly changed course and we had more time to walk around Marsala old town. Visiting lagoon Alessio told us facts, that were not mentioned by boat tour guide. Although it was 40+ outside, our van was always cooled and nice to travel. If you want to enjoy your tour, book it by Alessio, we really reccomend them to everyone. Ou, almost forgot winery - it was very nice and different from others visited before and wine was excellent!

A really incredible experience! We were able to tack on the salt pans as well. Highly recommend. The wine tasting was informative and delicious. The boat tour of Mothia (Phoenician ruins) was fascinating and our guide added to the experience immeasurably with some pictures of digital reconstructions of what it once looked like. The salt pans were fascinating, seeing the process and the Archimedes screws still in use, a design from thousands of years ago! Got to taste the salt too, which was fun. If you book this tour, all you need to do is ask to add the salt portion as well if you want to do that too (though it will be extra, about 30 USD per person... Worth it! Fascinating insights). Highly recommend all of it. We even got to forage for some wild garbanzos, yum!

Alessio was an amazing host. He was very knowledgeable, friendly, funny and laid back. Communication was excellent from the start of the booking until the taxi that he organised to the airport on our way home. We had a guided tour of the salt pans and then a 45 minute boat trip and finally a tour of a local Winery. He even went out of his way to show us some Pink Flamingos. Couldn't recommend this company and Alessio more A+++++

dianelI7511IB

Informative and beautiful tour. I enjoyed learning more about what is involved in harvesting sea salt, it's minersl value for health as well as the beautiful scenery and boat ride through the lagoon. Our guide, Alessio, was knowledgeable and clearly interested in giving us an experience to remember with this tour. I took the tour in the morning. It was beautiful. I would love to take it at sunset!!! Maybe, next visit.
