Resplan
Halvvägs mellan det nuvarande Palermo och Trapani står en av de äldsta städerna du kan besöka på Sicilien. Det första monumentet att besöka är det doriska templet, ett av de bäst bevarade grekiska templen i västvärlden. Det Doriska templet i Segesta står utanför stadsmuren, på en kulle väster om staden. Wolfgang von Goethe beskrev i sin resa till Italien templet med dessa ord: "Templets placering är förvånande: högst upp i en bred och lång dal, på toppen av en isolerad kulle och ändå omgiven av klippor, dominerar det en enorma utsikter till land. "
Den forntida teatern i Segesta, byggd på norra sidan av Akropolis, ligger på Monte Barbaros högsta topp, nära Castellammare viken. Teatern har en mycket bred panoramautsikt som om nödvändigt förvandlas till en spektakulär miljö. Det är ett av de mest framgångsrika exemplen på teaterarkitektur som kan placeras i passagen och som fortfarande används under sommaren för föreställningar och konserter. För att nå det måste du följa några stigar mitt i fälten eller en bred asfalterad väg. Men om du inte känner för att ta itu med denna långa vandring, speciellt på sommaren eller på kvällen, kan du använda den bekväma pendeltrafiken som går från biljettkontoret och tar dig till teaterns ingång.
Uppflugen på toppen av ett berg och med utsikt över Trapanibukten är Erice en liten och karaktäristisk medeltida by, med smala kullerstensgator, innergårdar, kyrkor och massor av ren och frisk luft, även på högsommaren. Tack vare dess höjd kan du njuta av en fantastisk 360 ° panoramautsikt. Från gatorna bakom katedralen kan du börja din rundtur i centrum av staden, bland suggestiva hörn, souvenirbutiker och historiska konditorier. I via Vittorio Emanuele, 14 ligger Maria Grammaticos historiska konditori, här kan du beundra och smaka på typiska Erice-godis. Stadens symbol är uppenbarligen Venus slott, från den normandiska eran, som står precis på den överhängande klippan och erbjuder en spektakulär utsikt. Bredvid slottet kan du beundra Pepoli Towers och den vackra kommunvillan Balio. Under sommaren är linbanan som förbinder Trapani med toppen av Erice i drift!
Saline di Marsala ligger i Stagnone Reserve och är en av de mest besökta turistattraktionerna i provinsen Trapani. Ett unikt territorium framför ön Mothia, längs den berömda "via del sale", porten till Stagnone Islands Nature Reserve. Naturreservatet Stagnone och ön Mozia är en plats med extraordinär skönhet, där du tillsammans med de exceptionella naturalistiska landskapen kan uppskatta de väderkvarnar som är typiska för Trapani-kusten, ett originellt exempel på industriell arkeologi som fortfarande är fullt funktionell idag. Saline della Laguna ligger precis inne i reservatet. Lagunen, den största på Sicilien (2000 ha) kännetecknas av mycket salta grunt vatten.
Ön Mozia tillhör skärgården Stagnone di Marsala och är en av de mest populära turistvägarna för besökare. Motya är en sann friluftsskatt, med sina många arkeologiska fynd, av vilka några är nedsänkta av havet på grund av stigande tidvatten: dess arkeologiska värde anses fortfarande vara ovärderligt. Faktum är att Mozia är värd för ett av de viktigaste museerna i provinsen Trapani. Den unge mannen från Mozia är det mest prestigefyllda och representativa fyndet på ön: det är en marmorstaty. Mozia är en gammal fenicisk koloni som grundades på 700-talet. FÖRE KRISTUS. på en av de fyra öarna i Stagnone-lagunen. Namnet Motya, förmodligen givet av fenicierna själva, skulle betyda spinneri och skulle vara kopplat till närvaron av fabriker för bearbetning av ull, etablerade här. Ön var, liksom de flesta andra feniciska kolonierna, en handelsplats och skulle fungera som en dockningsplats för feniciska fartyg på väg till Medelhavet. I och med den grekiska koloniseringen, som börjar på 800-talet, ökar Motya sin betydelse genom att bli en liten stad. På det sjätte århundradet. kontrasterna mellan greker och karthager skärps på grund av dominansen över Sicilien och Mozia är inblandad; du får omge den med murar som tillåter ett bättre försvar. År 397 belägrade Dionysius den äldre, tyrann av Syrakusa, staden och satte stopp för dess existens. Invånarna tar sin tillflykt till fastlandet i kolonin Lilibeo, nuvarande Marsala. Återupptäckten av Motya är kopplat till namnet på Giuseppe Whitaker, en engelsk adelsman från slutet av 1800-talet vars familj hade bosatt sig på Sicilien och hade startat en blomstrande exporthandel med Marsala-vin. På ön står Whitakers hem, nu förvandlat till ett museum.

Shared location with the driver multiple times; however, he never picked us up. Contacted the operator and they only provided us with a partial refund. I would not encourage anyone to book this tour.
Thank you for your review. We are sorry that you were disappointed with your experience. However, we believe it is important to clarify the circumstances. The tour you booked clearly states, both in the title and in the pickup information, that it starts from the Port of Palermo. The booking confirmation also specifies that pickup is available only in Palermo. On the day of the tour, our driver arrived at the agreed meeting point at the Port of Palermo and waited as scheduled. Only after being unable to locate you did we discover, through the live location you shared, that you were actually at the Port of Messina, approximately 240 km (150 miles) away from Palermo. Unfortunately, it is not possible to operate this tour from Messina, as the distance and travel time would make the itinerary unfeasible. Although the booking error was not caused by our company, we still chose to offer a 50% refund as a gesture of goodwill and customer care. We always strive to provide excellent service and encourage future guests to carefully check the departure location shown in the tour title and pickup details before booking. We wish you all the best in your future travels.
A preserved site that bears witness to the multiple cultural layers that have shaped Sicily. A pleasant surprise this Sunday in May, free admission. Only the bus (crowded) to reach the heights to visit the theater was paid. Large and sufficient parking despite the crowd. I recommend a hat, the bus, and a bottle of water. A nice introduction to the beginning of our journey...
Our driver, Guiseppe, was on time, pleasant, enthusiastic, considerate and informative. A good trip for those with limited time, but who want to "see it all". Communication with the tour operator and Guiseppe was excellent.
Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re delighted to hear that you had a great experience and that Giuseppe made your day so enjoyable. He will be very happy to know that you appreciated his punctuality, enthusiasm and the information he shared during the trip. We’re also pleased that the itinerary worked well for your limited time and allowed you to “see it all” comfortably. Providing smooth communication and reliable service is very important to us, so your feedback truly means a lot. We hope to welcome you again in Sicily soon! 🌞
Our tour guide/driver Fabrizio was excellent and a wealth of knowledge. The Renault van was very comfortable but we were not offered WiFi access as advertised. Unfortunately, the tour itself was less than advertised and quite pricey. Being off season, there were very few shops or restaurants open in Erice where we had intended to enjoy lunch. The salt pans museum was not open and the boat ride to Mozia was not possible. Marsala was not available to us either. The temple of Segesta was what we expected but we were charged an additional 27 USD to tour the site with audio assist. If traveling off season, confirm what is actually available before booking.
Dear Customer, thank you for sharing your experience. We are pleased to hear that you appreciated the professionalism and knowledge of your guide/driver Fabrizio, as well as the comfort of the vehicle. We apologize if the Wi-Fi was not offered as advertised; we will look into what happened to ensure it does not occur again. We are truly sorry that some services and visits were not available on the day of your tour. During the low season, unfortunately, several sites and activities reduce their hours or remain closed without prior notice. For example, the official website of the salt pans indicates opening hours from Monday to Sunday, 9:30 AM to 7:00 PM, while Google shows updated hours with only a short lunch break. However, in reality, during autumn and winter they do not open every day and the posted schedules are not always respected. Additionally, in this period Mozia can only be visited during the first part of the day, and we understand how this may have affected your experience. Regarding the Temple of Segesta, the cost of the entrance tickets and audio guides is managed directly by the Archaeological Park and for this reason is not included in the tour. We appreciate your suggestion: checking seasonal openings before booking is always useful, and our team is fully available to assist customers with this. We hope to welcome you again during a more favorable period, so that we can offer you the complete experience you deserve. Kind regards, Alexandra
Our private tour of Segesta, Erice, the Stagnone Salt Pans, and Marsala with Mimmo was absolutely wonderful! From start to finish, he was kind, thoughtful, and completely accommodating to our needs. He shared great facts and stories about each location, bringing the history and beauty of Sicily to life. We never felt rushed — Mimmo always made sure we had time to enjoy each stop, take photos, and soak it all in. He even went out of his way to offer restaurant recommendations and local tips, which made the experience feel personal and special. The car was immaculate and incredibly comfortable, and the timing of every activity was perfect, allowing us to see so much without ever feeling tired. If you want a relaxing, informative, and beautifully curated Sicilian adventure, book this tour and ask for Mimmo — you won’t regret it!

The driver , Mimo, was great and the car was a late model and very clean . Punctual pick up, cold water on demand and well laid out itinerary so that the walking parts were downhill with the car dropping us off near the top and then waiting at the bottom.

This tour from Palermo was an incredible way to experience Sicily. Our driver Mimmo made this an even more elevated day. His incredible knowledge of the areas we were going to visit made for a truly immersive experience. The history you get to experience on this tour was awesome and we made incredible memories. As busy as some of these areas get it was well worth it to have door to door service with this tour.

It was an amazing adventure of the northwest portions of Sicily leaving from Palermo. Our guide Fabrizio was amazing. He was like hanging out with a friend that you met to travel with that knew everything about the local area. We felt very well taken care of and had plenty of time to explore each of the destinations that we stopped at plus a little added extra. It was great to learn about the local history from him.
Thank you, Laura, for sharing your experience with us. We’re thrilled to hear that you loved our tour and that it met your expectations. We can’t wait to welcome you back soon. Alexandra
Fabrizio was a fantastic guide! He is incredibly knowledgeable of all the sights we visited Segesta, Erice, Trapani, Salt pans, etc. He is very interesting talking about the history of Sicily. Mainly he is an exceptionally nice person we enjoyed spending the day with! Request him if you want an unforgettable experience!
