Erice & Marsala: Salt, Olive Oil & Wine with lunch included

8 hours

Moderate

Experience colors and flavors of the Western coast of Sicily, a region renowned for producing Marsala wines, salt and extra-virgin olive oil.
Today h 8.15am get ready at meeting point to meet our driver and departure for Erice uptown. The Elymians settled in the medieval town of Erice, which was an important religious site associated with the goddess Venus. Wander through its ancient streets and visit some of the famous homemade pastry shops—world-famous for marzipan candies and other delicacies like almond and pistachio pastries.
Enjoy a light lunch in a local Sicilian Olive Oil producer Farmhouse.
This afternoon, we drive along the scenic Salt Way Road where the sea-salt is still produced following the old Phoenician tradition preserved during the century. We then continue onto Marsala, known in the whole world for one thing: Wine!
The Marsala Wine comes from the western lands of Sicily and its name derives from the homonymous town.
Later we return to Palermo (estimated arrival time h 4pm)

Please note that if the tour does not reach at least two partecipants it will not be operated.
