Absolutely recommended, really a lot and exciting information. The trip is absolutely worth it - and definitely try the homemade gin:)
An interesting experience both for us parents and for our children who listened, observed what Alessandro told with so much passion. Also very engaging is the workshop proposed to our children to make their soap. Thank you so much!!!
Grazie mille davvero a voi per avere visitato il nostro museo! Felicissimo che abbiate avuto una bella esperienza. A presto!
This was an amazing experience for our group. Host is very welcoming and the area is located in the heart of olive tree growing. The ancient barn full of authentic ancient machinery and tools. Explanation is very interactive and never dull. An experience we will treasure. Highly recommended.
Thanks a lot for visiting our museum! We are really happy you enjoyed the time spent here and looking forward to welcoming you again in the future!
Interesting narration about the origins and history of artisan soap in a suitable location. Vision of ancient tools and related (not mandatory) purchase of soap and essential oil.
Grazie mille per avere visitato il nostro museo!
Very interesting experience at the Museum of Soap. Place is very nice surrounded by olive trees. The host was very good and gave a good briefing of the history of soap making. We also had the opportunity to make a little soap, such experience was very nice. Would definitely recommend it.
Thanks a lot for the visit!
An interesting visit made pleasant by the availability and passion of Alessandro who tells, explains invites you to try accompanying in the discovery of an ancient art and of a whole territory. To do!
Grazie mille ancora per averci visitato!!!
This place is a must-see in Sicily! Booking in advance is required but Alessandro is really flexible so he provided a tour to us on the same day of our call. The tour was really interesting and funny on the same time for a very reasonable price. Highly recommended!
