An experience to taste the excellent Sicilian wines of famous cellars, with combinations of typical local products to enhance their flavour, all within historic cellars, in the midst of ancient barrels. The boat tour of the Mothia lagoon (nature reserve of the Stagnone islands of Marsala) will let you discover the history and tradition of this land.

We had the best time with Alessio. He picked us up from the airport and immediately took us out for a wonderful and knowledgable tour of the salt pans outside Trapani and the oldest winery in Marsala. At the end, he dropped us at our hotel and had some wonderful restaurant recommendations in town as well. If you are visiting Trapani, definitely book a tour with Trapani Emotions!
P.S. we thought two nights would be enough, but wish we stayed another day just to keep eating!

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!

Guided tour with final tasting. Excellent organization, very good guide and capable of capturing the attention of a very heterogeneous audience. The visit lasted half an hour and the tasting another 15 minutes

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+++++

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.
