Olive oil tasting in Syracuse, Sicily - Evoo Tour

A lovely location, facility, surrounded by ancient lemon & olive trees. The staff were friendly & informative. The tasting was fun, informative & tasty. Only negative was when the owner arrived, sidelined the staff & went into a rant about the state of the olive oil industry. Her comments were valid but went on too long!

A very, very beautiful surprise. A welcome and a tour with comments and explanations of very high quality, and what can I say about the tasting session. It was perfect!

Great explanation of olive oil process and tasting. Very accommodating and helpful with the two 80+ year old family members we had with us!

A really nice, informative visit. We visited the lemon grove and learned quite a bit about growing lemons. There is no olive grove here, but a few olive trees sufficed to also understand the key things about growing and picking olives. The mill is not active this time of year, however a video and a clear explanation helped. The tasting was the best part, including trying lemons. Miriam was very nice and answered all our questions. Our teenage kids liked it a lot too, not just adults.

Different tour to try it if you have done all of the touristy stuff. Loved getting to learn more about this small business and the production of olive oil and understanding the flavor that complements different foods. Would definitely recommend.

Veronica the guide was very good. We had a nice tour of the farm then tasted five different olive oils. Recommend!

We are farmers from England near Oxford. We wanted to take the opportunity to learn more about extra virgin olive oil. This we certainly did. We were looked after very well at each stage of the presentation and the information and tasting was revealing sitting in the building where they process and package the product.. We came away with a much better understanding of the boundaries of what is involved. The premises were clean and professional and as we learnt hygiene is an essential part of the production. The owner and her farther were also there and she supported and added to her colleagues presentations. There is a range of product you can buy so we can be reminded of our experience. The surrounding area looks like it is productive and prosperous. We would recommend the visit to anyone who feels they are interested.

A wonderfully ecologically run farm with olive and citrus trees in mixed culture. The olives are harvested by hand and pressed cold in a gentle process. The greatest emphasis is placed on quality. All processes of further processing into the high-quality olive oils have been explained and described in great detail, and the individual processes on the respective special machines have been explained. The open-minded friendly staff and the owner answered all the questions of the group in detail. At the tasting you can taste very much the differences of the individual variants and anyway to the common olive oils from the supermarkets. It was a very informative and interesting tour for me, which I can only recommend to anyone interested in high-quality olive oil!!

Unforgettable Olive Oil Experience! The staff was incredibly knowledgeable about olives and the production process. We were fortunate to have the owner, Francesca, personally guide us through the tour and tasting — her passion and expertise made the experience truly special. The tasting itself was exceptional, featuring a variety of mini side dishes including olives, fresh bread, grapes, and cheese. We never realized the depth and complexity of flavor in Extra Virgin Olive Oil until this visit. A truly memorable and enriching experience!

Never experienced anything like it. The family puts so much passion into your work, the products have overwhelmed us! I can only recommend everyone to take this with them. Thanks again to the team!
