Top 39 things to do and attractions in Sciacca

(Translated by Google) The Mother Church of Maria Santissima del Soccorso is the Mother Church of Sciacca, perhaps the oldest, which features architectural structures typical of the Renaissance era. It is made up of three apses in Arab-Norman style and two Gothic arched portals. (Original) La Matrice di Maria Santissima del Soccorso è la Chiesa Madre di Sciacca, forse la più antica, che si presenta con strutture architettoniche tipiche dell’epoca rinascimentale. E' formata da tre absidi in stile arabo-normanno e due portali ad arco gotico.

(Translated by Google) A must to visit in Sciacca. This cathedral is magnificent outside and inside. It is very well maintained. The ceiling is covered with a magnificent fresco. To visit absolutely (Original) Un incontournable à visiter à Sciacca. Cette cathédrale est magnifique extérieur comme intérieur. Elle est très bien entretenue. Le plafond est recouvert d'une magnifique fresque. A visiter absolument

(Translated by Google) Beautiful, absolutely worth visiting if you are in Sciacca. Sweet Madonnina del Soccorso at the back, behind the altar. (Original) Bella, assolutamente da visitare se ci si trova a Sciacca. Dolcissima Madonnina del Soccorso in fondo, dietro l’altare.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful basilica, a must visit for anyone coming to Sciacca. (Original) Bellissima basilica, da visitare assolutamente per chi viene a Sciacca.

(Translated by Google) Very suggestive (Original) Molto suggestiva

(Translated by Google) Very beautiful monument to visit (Original) Très beau monument à visiter

(Translated by Google) A beautiful church and interesting surroundings. (Original) Przepiękny kościół i ciekawe otoczenie.

Nice place to see if you are in the area, would not travel to see it alone as it takes 20 minutes or so to go around

Not worth the 20 minute walk or the 3E ticket. Not even a good view. The minimul display was disappointing. Better suggestion is Casa Museo Francesco Scalione alongside the Basillica. Interesting ans free.

It's a nice piece of Sciacca history. The castle was smaller than we thought. Beautiful view of the ocean, and town. Short walk. We weren't able to go up the tower. But I bet at night it lights up and is beautiful to dine in.

Pretty underappreciated place with small amounts of tourists! A very nice view from the castle walls! You can make great photos from there! The castle itself is pretty much in ruins, but there is a tower still standing with some historical and recreated weaponry and armor. I also liked the recounting of the castle's past, which you can read at the entrance.

They will charge you 3€ even though it is 15 minutes before closing time. I walked all the way up here but was not allowed a little peak inside. My only day i Sciacca so I can't come back.

Small castle but worth a quick visit. There are a number of small displays (the male chastity belt will raise eyebrows) and it has excellent views of the sea.

Just ok

Interesting art exhibition! There is enough to see and experience if you’re looking for a fun pitt stop along your Sicilian road trip - allocate an hour and enjoy.

Bizarre exhibition of hundreds of stone-carved heads. Also some biographical information about the disturbed artist (incl. free audio guide). And some caves. Well kept and intriguing.

I’ve given this place two stars because I did not find this place personally enchanting, I am not the biggest art fan, but I can usually make some sort of understanding & appreciation of most things, even the place admits they don’t know what the artists inspiration was or why he carved faces carved in stone & trees. The grounds are nice & very well kept, make sure you bring cash to pay as the card machine struggles with connection.

A magical place, the legacy of an unconventional man. The artworks are not refined, but they are so numerous that they "enchant." With the audio guide, you relive a unique story — that of a truly remarkable man.

Fascinating place which cannot be compared to any museum or other "arty" location. Go there when it's quiet. You enter a magical world of a self taught sculptor who created around 3000 heads in stone and some in tree trunks. Apparently he suffered some head injuries in a fight in the US (+ brain damage?) and upon return to Sciaccia lived a secluded life, creating his own world and refusing to sell any of his works.

We came here out of the blue and were pleasantly surprised, this amazing labyrinth up to the caves had us not know where to look. It's mystical and magical.

To see the the beauty of stones and the imagination Mr Bentivegna put into his outsider art put us in another place for the time while there. You forget about what's going on and take in the quietness and passion of his garden. Some might have made fun of his talent but he saw something that no person could model for.

We had a wonderful dinner at the restaurant, I would describe the cuisine a modern Italian (Sicilian) fusion. The limone dessert was outstanding.

It was great. Nice welcome, and surely we were not t ready to have all of the amazing experiences we had tonight! Would recommend, also the wine was a good experience! Maybe next time I will have a grappa on the house 😃 Grazie mille y a tutti

Excellent food, in a great experience. Chef Gianni Morreale provided us a wonderful dinner. I am a bread lover, and there it is a must, even the bread!!!

This restaurant impresses with its sophisticated presentation and high-quality dishes, complemented by attentive service. The prices, while above average, reflect the quality of the meals. However, the location leaves something to be desired. Situated on a busy road leading to the port, the ambiance is disrupted by the constant bustle, and accessing the restaurant requires taking an elevator, which might be inconvenient for some. Despite these drawbacks, the overall experience remains positive, making it a good choice for those seeking refined cuisine and are less concerned about the setting.

Very good food with fresh ingredients. Super close to the harbor with a nice view but unfortunately it’s right above one of the main streets and this ruins a bit the atmosphere if there is traffic

Top notch restaurant. Must experience ,food and wine is exceptional Excellent service and info on wine provided. Their Grappa selection also amazing. Gets busy so book early to avoid disappointment. Nice view over the harbour and parking close by, steps to old town right next door. Probably for me best in Sciacca.

Poetry for the soul and the palate. Never tasted something like Mazara’s shrimps, it’s an indescribable experience. If you’re visiting Sciacca this one is a must.

Food was well prepared and well presented. We both had the Lamb ribs. I really recommend the Nero D’Avola red wine, it was great quality for a good price. It seems they only work with this one winery, however, it is really good.

We have been in Sicily for 2 weeks, and have decided that this restaurant had the best food so far. If you are in Sciacca please visit this restaurant! It is amazing!

We dined at Le Stranizze on our second night in Sciacca after being recommended the restaurant from our resort butler. The restaurant has a number of outdoor and indoor seats, but we opted for an outdoor table as the weather was nice and we loved seeing all of the activity outside in the heart of Sciacca. We were greeted by the restaurant employees promptly at the time of our reservation who were all warm and nice, and our server came by a few minutes later after we were seated to introduce herself and answered any initial questions we had. The server also gave us an introduction to their restaurant who also has a winery about 15 minutes away from the restaurant (and all wines from their wine list at the restaurant come from their winery). We ordered a bottle of Magaria (22 euros) and the wine was an extremely good quality and we loved it! For a starter, we ordered the Schiaffoni di Gargano (15 euros) and the pasta was also amazing and very fresh, and plenty big for the two of us to share. For entrees, we ordered Beef filet (22 euros) and the Grilled pork pluma (20 euros) and both were also outstanding and we split the dishes so we both could try two different things. For a dessert, we ordered the deconstructed cannoli which I think was around 5 euros and also was very outstanding and unique. All food was out of this world and very memorable. It tasted liked we were dining at a Michelin starred dining establishment! I highly recommend trying the restaurant if you're in the Sciacca area!

Really good dining experience. Staff is is very well trained, food is excellent, specially the octopus which had an amazing texture. Arancione with shrimps was very well balanced and the pistachio sauce was good. The sirloin was on point and the tomatoes were amazingly fresh. Fillet felt like butter, I think I've never had one that soft. Wine selection although short was well selected and is nothing to complain about.

best atmosphere, the tables are placed in the alley and so you can watch people and the hustle and bustle of the city while dining. the greeting from the kitchen was thoughtful and exquisite. for our starter we chose caponata. the tasteful play with chocolate, vegetables, cheese and sauce was heavenly. probably the best preparation of this famous starter of our entire sicilian trip. the pasta dishes that followed were no less impressive. as i had to drive for another 2 hours after dinner, i was unfortunately unable to taste any wine. a must here. the service, on the other hand, was a little frosty. anyway, we would definitely go again.

The octopus starter was good but the tuna was overcooked, dry and under-seasoned. They also sat us next to a garden area at night where there were lots of mosquitos.

Very delicious Sicilian food and wines, gourmet style. We were there two times for dinner and everything was tasty, caprese salad, grilled octopus, beef filet, time steak. Just there were many people and we had to wait for a while at the beginning. Convenient location in the city center in the pedestrian zone. Big public parking 5 min walking.

Best spot for bakery goods, cannolis and gelato. Will definitely be returning tomorrow (and the next day) ..!!

The best bar in Sciacca for great coffee, delicious gelato, cantucci and everything with almonds, but most importantly: the best connoli! A must go if you are in Sciacca and want to experience the Sicilian flair.

The best food in town 😁

Each star for: food, view (we were opserving Italian life), waiting time, we could pay by card and free WiFi :-)

it was our favorite breakfast place and we went multiple times during our vacation - and still we could not try all the different pastries they have! Especially good were the cannoli and another pastry with deep fried dough and sheep ricotta filling. The owner and all the staff were always friendly, professional and happy. highly recommended

Perfect Place in Sciacca for a coffee and the best ice cream in town. Don‘t forget to try some other handmade sweets or just have a talk with the very friendly staff on their tables in the sun. Thanks a lot! Greetings from Switzerland.

Not honest (changing prices) and low quality products.

Nice museum of privately collected artifacts by a local nobleman.

(Translated by Google) I went with my family. The positive thing is that entry is free although it would be better to pay to allow for any restorations. Very nice museum. Everything in the house is original. Many works of different styles of the time. It was also very fun as well as interesting thanks to the very nice lady Ignazia. (Original) Sono stata con la mia famiglia. La cosa positiva è che l'entrata è gratuita anche se sarebbe meglio a pagamento per permettere eventuali restauri. Museo molto carino. Tutto quello che c'è nella casa è originale. Molte opere di diversi stili dell'epoca. È stato anche molto divertente oltre che interessante grazie alla simpaticissima signora Ignazia.

(Translated by Google) We happened upon this house museum by chance and it turned out to be a real surprise The collection of artifacts, paintings, statues, antiques and various curiosities is exquisitely tasteful, as are the airy rooms decorated with wonderful local majolica and finely frescoed ceilings Thanks to the very kind ladies who accompanied us on the visit despite the almost closing time, I recommend anyone passing through Sciacca to pop into this historic residence and breathe in a bit of Sicilian good taste (Original) Siamo capitati per caso in questa casa museo che si è rivelata una vera sorpresa La collezione di reperti, quadri, statue, antichità e curiosità varie è di gusto squisito, così come le stanze ariose e decorate dalle meravigliose maioliche locali e da soffitti finemente affrescati Grazie alle gentilissime signore che ci hanno accompagnato nella visita nonostante l'orario quasi di chiusura, consiglio a chiunque passi per Sciacca di fare un salto in questa dimora storica e respirare un po' di buon gusto siciliano

(Translated by Google) Nice museum in the center of beautiful Sciacca. Easy to reach on foot, we bought the ticket together with other museums and paid a total of €15 (toy museum, soap museum, Luna castle and the enchanted castle.) A dive into the past to take if you pass by here . (Original) Museo carino nel centro della bella Sciacca. Facile da raggiungere a piedi il biglietto noi l'abbiamo fatto insieme ad altri musei e abbiamo pagato in totale 15€ (museo del giocattolo, del sapone, castello Luna e del castello incantato.) Un tuffo nel passato da fare se si passa da qui.

(Translated by Google) Visiting the Scaglione Museum in Sciacca was like stepping into another era. The house, furnished as it was, speaks volumes about the life of a Sicilian nobleman, but it's the caretaker who makes it truly special. With rare sweetness and kindness, she guided us with passion and warmth, as if she were opening her own home to us. More than a visit, it was a journey through time, guided by a sincere heart. A beautiful stop, especially considering the free visit! I highly recommend not giving up and passing by like many tourists who don't realize the value of this small museum. (Original) Visitare il Museo Scaglione a Sciacca è stato come entrare in un’altra epoca. La casa, rimasta arredata com’era, racconta da sola la vita di un nobile siciliano, ma è la custode a renderla davvero speciale. Con una dolcezza e una gentilezza rare, ci ha accompagnati con passione e calore, come se ci aprisse la sua casa. Più che una visita, è stato un viaggio nel tempo, guidato da un cuore sincero. Bella tappa, considerato anche che la visita è gratuita! Consiglio davvero di non rinunciare e non passare oltre come fanno molti turisti che non si rendono conto del valore di questo piccolo museo.

(Translated by Google) Interesting historic building to visit (Original) Palazzo storico interessante da visitare

(Translated by Google) Lovely welcome even if it was closing time...fantastic..not to be missed (Original) Accoglienza deliziosa anche se in orario di chiusura...fantastico..da non perdere

If you’re mega interested for old architecture ok come see this. Otherwise another old cool building to see along the way in this otherwise unremarkable town.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful historic sixteenth century building in the center of Sciacca. There are some interesting architectural elements. (Original) Bel palazzo storico del cinquecento in centro a Sciacca. Presente degli elementi architettonici interessanti.

(Translated by Google) A wonderful palace. It's a shame you can't visit the inside, but its beauty is probably its exterior. (Original) Palazzo meraviglioso. Peccato non sia visitabile internamente, ma il suo bello probabilmente è proprio l’esterno

(Translated by Google) Beautiful palace, in which there are all the typical architectural references of Sicilian medieval noble palaces, with Renaissance references, after all it dates back to the early sixteenth century. (Original) Bel palazzo, in cui vi sono tutti i riferimenti architettonici tipici dei palazzi nobiliari medievali Siciliani, con richiami rinascimentali, dopotutto risale ai primi del cinquecento.

(Translated by Google) The visual impact is really pleasant. Some restoration is needed, now partially underway on the portal. It could have a good future. (Original) L’impatto visivo è davvero piacevole. Necessità di un po’ di restauro, ora parzialmente in corso sul portale. Potrebbe avere un buon futuro.

(Translated by Google) Apart from the fact that when we arrived (around 10pm) the waiters told us that the dough for making the pizzas was finished and I was forced to take a family one... leaving that aside, I can say that the pizza wasn't very good, too much mozzarella and hard dough Furthermore, it was brought after a looooong time, ok now I'm finished if you want you can go anyway and try... maybe I was unlucky because I went there just on the evening when it was bad and they didn't even have the dough (Original) A parte il fatto che quando siamo arrivati (all'incirca verso le 22.00) i camerieri ci hanno detto che l'impasto per fare le pizze era finito e sono stata costretta a prendere una familiare...lasciando stare ciò, posso dire che la pizza non era molto buona, troppa mozzarella e l'impasto duro Inoltre è stata portata dopo moooooolto tempo, ok adesso ho finito se volete potete andare lo stesso e provate... può darsi che sarò stata sfigata io che ci sono andata giusto giusto la sera in cui era brutta e non avevano neanche l'impasto

(Translated by Google) Super 🙌 (Original) Супер 🙌

Nice hidden gem of a museum. Carnival is a major holiday in Sciacca and if you can't be around for the actual celebration; this seems to be the next best thing.

Closed, looks like forever...the building was empty. :(

(Translated by Google) Entrance is free. It is a fairly small museum where the most sensational floats of the Sciacca carnival are reconstructed in miniature. There would also be a video, but it doesn't always work. (Original) L’ingresso è gratuito. È un museo abbastanza piccolo ove sono ricostruiti, in miniatura, i carri più eclatanti del carnevale di Sciacca. Ci sarebbe anche un video, ma non sempre funziona.

(Translated by Google) Visiting the region we came for nothing even though it was marked open on Google. Big disappointment for our daughter. Changing your hours would take you 2 minutes and would respect your customers! (Original) En visite dans la région nous sommes venus pour rien alors que c'etait marqué ouvert sur Google. Grosse déception pour notre fille. Changer vos horaires vous prendrait 2 minutes et respecterait vos clients !

(Translated by Google) We left Marsala specifically to visit this museum, after making sure it was open by looking at the appropriate page with timetables and everything... we arrive on time and find the gate open with 2 elderly people sitting outside, obviously we asked them for information and we they said it was closed for construction... but is it normal that the municipality or whoever manages it doesn't communicate?! They knew it and in fact they were there specifically to check I don't know what since entering through the gate there is only a children's playground in the middle of the undergrowth! Compliments! (Original) Ci siamo partiti appositamente da Marsala per visitare questo museo, dopo esserci assicurati che fosse aperto guardando l'apposita pagina con orari e tutto.. arriviamo in orario e troviamo il cancello aperto con 2 anziani seduti fuori, ovviamente abbiamo chiesto a loro informazioni e ci hanno detto che era chiuso per lavori in corso..ma è normale che il comune o chiunque lo gestisce non fa comunicazione?! Loro lo sapevano e infatti erano là appositamente per controllare non so che cosa dato che entrando dal cancello c'è solo un parco giochi per bambini in mezzo alla sterpaglia! Complimenti!

(Translated by Google) ATTENTION. THERE'S NOTHING THERE. RUIN. (Original) UWAGA. NIC TAM NIE MA. RUINA.

(Translated by Google) Well-kept but not very rich museum. Find the essentials (Original) Museo ben tenuto ma poco ricco. Trovi l'essenziale

I visited this restaurant on the recommendation of my mother who had visited 34 years ago!! I got the daily set lunch menu ($50 euros) and it was absolutely delicious! The octopus starter blew my mind - i have never had such tender and delicate octopus and the smoky flavor and smooth bean cream suited it perfectly. I also really enjoyed the roll crepe with semifreddo and zucchini jam a Sciaccan speciality. Light, sweet, with a lovely mix of textures and flavors!! The service was very friendly and professional and I felt very welcomed and comfortable despite the fine dining atmosphere. I loved getting to meet the waiter and owner and hope to come back before another 34 years passes! :)

Excellent food, very quiet when we arrived for lunch post-COVID. The raw fish starter was phenomenal and so fresh. The risotto was perfectly balanced. And the steamed fish was so fresh and floral and interestingly flavored.

We were there for lunch. The food was good, we had Fuseloni with pesto after a mixed salad and Paccheri followed by beef fillet. Accompanied by water and two glasses if wine. We paid 114€, so it is quite expensive!

We needed dinner on our first Sunday in Sicily. All the places we knew in Sciacca were closed but we found the Art Deco cafe open. The welcome was not as friendly as normal and the service a little offhand, but the food when it arrived was very good indeed.

I recently dined at Hosteria del Vicolo and as always, the food was exceptional and the service was top-notch. Over time, we've become regulars, visiting at least once a month, and each experience continues to impress. The quality of the dishes never disappoints, and the staff is always attentive and friendly. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a delightful dining experience!

Absolutely fantastic, Sicilian faire. Beautiful linens and fantastic service. The bacon octopus anti pasti was sublime and the monk fish medallions were magnificent. One must have the amazing Sicilian bread and young Olive oil. Highly recommended.

Food took literally hours to come out, even though there are only 7 tables. The food was average at best, cramped space and too uncomfortable for families beyond a party of 3.

first, this is a simple trattoria offering characteristic local home cuisine, the best we can judge, with the TV on all the time, a mix of tourists and locals. It might be possible to order a la carte but friendly host defaulted to fixed menu and we went along. the ample mix of dishes presented as appetizers and primi seems to change over the course of the evening according to cook's preference. Appetizers were the best part, good frying and egglplant dish, pastas somewhat repetitious though. fish secondo grilled with breadcrumbs acceptable but not as good as we had elsewhere. Price fair for the quantity and quality.

Dining in Sicily is always an adventure. This location had seating outside in a alley/courtyard. The atmosphere was interesting with lights hanging above and music playing. When we asked for a menu we were told there isn't one. Ok? The server told us they will prepare a fixed price menu for 40 euros of a starter along with a main and second dish of fish and pasta. This was not what we wanted but chose to stay for something a little less and paid 30 euros per person. While the food was fine it was not anything special. I was not a fan of this type of tactic and felt we did not receive a great value. The staff was friendly and attentive. I don't feel I would go there again.

We randomly chose this place, and the minute they didn't show us a menu but instead told us what they offered, I knew we were being trapped by this restaurant. The food was good, they just didn’t want us to know how much we are going to pay. We paid 72 euros for a fish dish. The owner suggested we should have antipasto, pasta, and a main dish — if we had been completely fooled by him, it would have cost us over 300 euros! We also saw customers who were so upset that they left without paying. What a show! Overall, If you're looking for a dramatic experience, I highly recommend this place.

My favourite Osteria. It is worth crossing the island just to have lunch her. No choice, just what they offer today, fish only. Real handmade food, just exceptional.

Excelent staff, excelent food, thanks...

Very bad food. Cold, not properly cooked. Very big portions. Dry bread. No menu and unannounced 10% service charge.

Small place. You get the daily menu for lunch. The proprietor had better English than my Italian. We were here 12 years ago with our daughter and found it again since our other favorite, Antics Osteria della Victoria was closed today. Excellent local cuisine. Tonno polpette, fresh sardines w/white wine vinegar, calamari salad and more as the antipasti. 2 Primi: tonno 🍝 w/ sauce of red pepper, almonds & mint👍🏼👍🏼and Pasta with shrimp and pistachio sauce. Seconding: grilled spada, gamberi & melanzane w/ fresh tomatoes. All prepared perfectly. And lemon granita for dessert.

Very nice owners. Beautiful place and delicious pasteries and coffee. We tried the canoli and speciality ova murina. You have to request it as you won't see it up front so make sure to request it! 5 sweets and three coffees for 13€ very reasonable.

Very cute place with tasty authentic deserts. If you don’t see the cannoli, just ask) the service was great and friendly.

La Favola is our go-to spot in Sciacca for breakfast! This charming family-owned caffè offers the best cannoli we’ve ever tasted. Located in the heart of town, right in front of a historic building, it’s beloved by both locals and visitors alike. Always ask what’s freshly made—many treats aren’t even on display. Highly recommend!

This place is truly a must visit for anyone wanting a quick pit stop for some Sicilian ice cream and more. We will be back for the ice cream brioche! Tim, Emma… (+Federico)

The best canolli I had on Sicily so far. Crispy dough and delicious, creamy filling made of sheep ricotta with candied orange peel. Amazing local desserts served by a super nice owner. Also, delicious coffee and in many more variations than just an espresso!! ;) This place makes it difficult to leave Sciacca :)

Very good Italian ice cream and friendly service! We had good time with kids.

The best gelato in Sicily. Literally, this ice cream should be registered as local art.

Great little bar. We were passing through on our way down the coast and just caught them before afternoon closing. They went out of their way to look after our group. Very nice and helpful. Recommend.

Very nice bar with delicious gelato and granite

We've recently discovered Sciacca's main square (great view, perfect wedding spot) and were starving for a good ice cream. Unfortunately, we picked this authentic-looking bar over the more modern ones: we sat down and were nicely welcomed by a young boy who wanted our order immediately. After asking for some time, we ordered ice-cream and different types of granita. We specialize in local sweets and we could not appreciate any of them: my almond granita was not even a granita. The most ridiculous part was the payment: my husband faced a very nervous lady who started to shout at everybody in the pub because she couldn't find the sticky note of our order. We tried to give her the list, but she kept criticizing how poor everybody in that bar was. It was a really unpleasant scene.

Lovely, clean. Nice selection if snacks and drinks

Good place for rest during trop with perfect view from main market of Sciacca

(Translated by Google) Great location with a view of the vibrant atmosphere! We had delicious granita. The service was really friendly, albeit a bit chaotic, but that didn't spoil our experience. We were very satisfied and would gladly return. (Original) Toll gelegen mit Blick aufs volle Leben! Wir hatten sehr leckere Granita. Der Service war wirklich sehr freundlich, wenn auch etwas chaotisch, was uns aber das Vergnügen nicht verderben konnte. Wir waren sehr zufrieden und kommen gerne wieder.

Came here on a quiet weekday mid afternoon. Seemed like the only place open at the time. The arancini were very tasty. The atmosphere by the Piazza Mariano Rossi was very relaxing. We came back in the evening the next night and enjoyed a Gelato. Very friendly and helpful staff.

Nice people, nice food, good place to stop by while traveling in Sicily

Beautiful site

(Translated by Google) Not particularly striking, but nice. The unfinished or decayed facade is interesting. The internal ornaments are beautiful but not excellent. (Original) Non particolarmente eclatante, ma graziosa. Interessante la facciata incompiuta o decaduta. Belli gli ornamenti interni ma non eccelsi.

(Translated by Google) I expected better, fresh fish but be careful, the counters are not too "well looked after"! (Original) Mi aspettavo meglio, pesce fresco ma attenzione i banchi non troppo “curati”!

(Translated by Google) Total desolation, it was once full of stalls with fishing boats landing. When I arrived there were only 3 fishing boats selling at fish market prices, it must be the effect of the crisis but I expected much better (Original) Desolazione totale,una volta era pieno di bancarelle con pescherecci che sbarcavano.

(Translated by Google) From the bowels of the earth, water vapors rise at over 40 degrees centigrade and arrive straight into 2 caves which are essentially natural hammams. It is an incredible place that combines the power of nature and religion. You can admire the places inhabited by San Calogero. Entering the cave where he lived and healed pilgrims. Unfortunately the spa reality in Sicily has been destroyed by the Crocetta government, but if you want to go and breathe the therapeutic power of steam, absolutely go. Right next to the caves stands the minor Basilica which is truly beautiful. Highly recommended visit (Original) Dalle viscere della terra , risalgono vapori acquei ad oltre 40 gradi centigradi e arrivano dritto in 2 grotte che sostanzialmente sono degli hammam naturali. È un luogo incredibile che unisce la forza della natura e la religione. Potrete ammirare i luoghi abitati da San Calogero. Entrare nella grotta dove lui viveva e guariva i pellegrini. Purtroppo la realtà termale in Sicilia è stata distrutta dal governo Crocetta , ma se volete andare a respirare il potere terapeutico del vapore andate assolutamente. Proprio accanto alle grotte sorge la Basilica minore che è davvero bella. Visita consigliatissima

(Translated by Google) After many years, finally, even if only for a short visit, the Sciacca Città dei 5 sensi association, with the patronage of the Sicily Region and the Municipality of Sciacca, has given the community the possibility of being able to relive a unique experience, and in "magic" part, access the suggestive stoves of Monte Kronio. A place that has always been renowned for its therapeutic-thermal properties which I sincerely hope can be reopened to the public and carry out its primary function (spa centre), which has been at the service of the community for centuries! With the hope that caring for people prevails over other interests! (Original) Dopo tanti anni, finalmente, anche se solo per un breve visita, l'associazione Sciacca Città dei 5 sensi, con il patrocinio della Regione Sicilia e del Comune di Sciacca, ha ridato alla comunità la possibilità di poter rivivere un esperienza unica, ed in parte "magica", accedere alle suggestive stufe del Monte Kronio. Un luogo da sempre rinomato per le sue proprietà terapeutico-termali che spero vivamente possa essere riaperto al pubblico e svolgere la sua funzione primaria (centro termale), che per secoli è stata al servizio della collettività! Con la speranza che la cura delle persone prevalga su altri interessi!

(Translated by Google) Congratulations to the volunteers of the "Sciacca città dei 5ensi" project who work towards the maintenance and enhancement of the place.

E' un'esperienza da fare assolutamente quella di entrare nelle due grotte! In più chiara e edotta spiegazione sulla grotta di San Calogero!

(Translated by Google) Although the website says it's open, the trip was in vain. Everything was closed. What a waste of the long journey. Never again!!!!!!! (Original) Obwohl im Internet geöffnet steht, war der Weg umsonst. Alles geschlossen. Schade um den weiten Weg. Nie wieder!!!!!!!

(Translated by Google) Fantastic volunteers made a natural spectacle unique in the world accessible. Thanks for visiting. Open only on Saturday and Sunday from 10am to 12pm. Don't go wrong by going to the site of the old spa which has been closed for years! The negative reviews only come from people who couldn't visit it because they looked at the wrong site (Original) Dei volontari fantastici hanno reso fruibile un o spettacolo naturale unico al mondo. Grazie per la visita. Aperto solo Sabato e Domenica dalle 10 alle 12. Non sbagliate ad andare sul sito delle vecchie terme chiuse da anni!

(Original) Poche cose da vedere, ma il signore che fa da guida è molto disponibile e, se interessati, basta ascoltarlo per apprendere aneddoti e informazioni che rendono la visita interessante.

(Translated by Google) The hot springs are simply spectacular. Extremely high, completely natural temperatures, an entire spa hotel opened but never used, an immense waste of unique resources. The initiative to offer free visits is excellent. (Original) Le stufe calde sono semplicemente spettacolari. Temperature elevatissime assolutamente naturali, un intero hotel termale inaugurato e mai utilizzato, spreco immenso di risorse uniche al mondo. Ottima l'iniziativa di farle visitare gratuitamente.

Anciemt and pretty interesting place to visit in the heart of Sciacca.

Cool

Beautiful place

(Translated by Google) Beautiful structure located right at the entrance to Sciacca, but it's a shame because it loses a lot of value like all the other sites, such as the Sciacca staircase, the ceramic climb and others due to the dirt that prevails throughout the city. Not to mention that there is no area limited to traffic, at least for the period in which I was there, and therefore cars whizzing everywhere, and cars parked even on the edge of the sites to be visited. But the magic of Sciacca is the port, in the evening seen from above the city it offers a very suggestive spectacle, you can see the fishermen's boats one by one moving away from the port and slowly disappearing into the darkness of the night q (Original) Bellissima struttura situata proprio all'ingresso di Sciacca, peccato però perché perde molto di valore come tutti gli altri siti, come la scala di Sciacca,la salita della ceramica e altri ancora per via della sporcizia che prevale per tutta la città.Per non parlare che non c'è una zona limitata al traffico, quanto meno per il periodo in cui vi sono stata io, e quindi macchine che sfrecciano ovunque, e macchine parcheggiate anche al limite dei siti da visitare. Ma la magia di Sciacca è il porto, la sera visto dall'alto della città regala uno spettacolo molto suggestivo, si vedono le barchette dei pescatori che ad uno ad uno si allontanano dal porto che pian piano scompaiono nell'oscurità della notte q

(Translated by Google) The Porta San Salvatore in Sciacca dates back to the 14th century and was rebuilt in 1581. Located near the church of San Salvatore, it is one of the most evocative views of Sciacca. From here, you enter the city's historic center. I recommend a visit. (Original) La Porta San Salvatore a Sciacca è originaria del XIV secolo a fu ricostruita nel 1581. Situata vicino alla chiesa di San Salvatore, è uno degli scorci più suggestivi di Sciacca. Da qui si accede al centro storico della città. Consiglio di visitarla.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful Sciacca, beautiful Piazza del Carmine and Porta San Salvatore, I recommend also visiting the other two gates of the town, Porta Palermo and Porta di San Calogero. To complete the 5 Gates of Sciacca there would be Porta Bagni and Porta di Mare, now disappeared. I recommend the route of the 3 doors of Sciacca, which lasts approximately 1 hour (Original) Bella Sciacca, bella piazza del Carmine e Porta San Salvatore, consiglio di visitare anche le altre due porte della cittadina, Porta Palermo e Porta di San Calogero. A completare le 5 Porte di Sciacca ci sarebbero Porta Bagni e Porta di Mare, ormai Scomparse. Consiglio il percorso delle 3 porte di Sciacca, durata 1 ora circa

Also in winter is a beauty villa to visit, in fact from the terrace you seen the "Piscine Romane"

Good photo stop!

Twas ok here..

Awesome ...

(Translated by Google) The municipal villa is one of the historic places in the city of Sciacca, for years always an ideal place for a walk or to sit down to enjoy a snack or a packed lunch immersed in nature with the port and the sea as a panoramic view from the terrace. I give 3 stars for the simple fact that over the years it has not been cared for properly, resulting in it being neglected and not valued as it should be. (Original) La villa comunale è uno dei posti storici della città di Sciacca, da anni sempre posto ideale per una passeggiata o dove sedersi per gustarsi una merenda o un Pranzo al sacco immersi nella natura con il porto e il mare come panoramica della terrazza. Do 3 stelle per il semplice fatto che negli anni non è stata curata come si deve, risultando così trascurata e non valorizzata come dovrebbe essere.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful and small villa with a small pond with just a couple of nice geese and ducks. The view of the sea and the monument to the war dead are beautiful. Unfortunately, the villa gives the impression of not being looked after at all as it deserves, but it is still worth entering and spending time walking around inside. (Original) Bella e piccola villa con un piccolo laghetto con giusto un paio di oche e anatre simpatiche. Bellissimo l'affaccio sul mare e il monumento ai caduti in guerra. Purtroppo la villa dà l'impressione di non essere per nulla curata come meriterebbe, vale comunque la pena entrarci e spendere del tempo per passeggiarci dentro.

(Translated by Google) A spacious municipal park with a lovely pond, where friendly geese squawk. The location is truly deplorable, left to decay, with filth, neglect, and vandalism. The poor work of art, dedicated to the Fallen, stands out among the overgrown weeds. A real shame for the Municipality, which fails to care for a historic public asset, causing inconvenience to tourists, and a disgrace to the people of Sacca, who do not deserve such disgrace. (Original) Villa comunale, ampia, con un bel laghetto, dove starnazzano delle simpatiche oche. Situazione davvero deprecabile, della location, lasciata al degrado, con sporcizia, incuria, vandalismo. La povera opera d'arte, dedicata ai Caduti, spicca, tra le erbacce, che invadono tutto. Una vera vergogna per il Comune, che non sa prendersi cura di un bene comune storico, procurando disagi ai turisti, e onta al popolo saccense, che non merita tale onta

We stopped at Café Rossi in Sciacca and absolutely loved it. We had two brioches with gelato (pistachio and chocolate) and two granitas (lemon and almond). The granitas were easily the best we’ve had in Sicily – and we’ve tried many in Sciacca, Catania, and Palermo. They were the biggest, smoothest, and most refreshing. The brioche with gelato was massive, with super creamy and delicious ice cream. Service was quick and attentive, the atmosphere was local and welcoming, and prices were very affordable. We even noticed people enjoying Aperol spritzes that looked amazing. Overall, 10/10 – a must-stop in Sciacca!

Very nice staff, we had a great cappuccino and a really good gelato with the Taste of pistacchio.

En grappa o machiatto duplo. 6€ 😁👍 I like the place.

Service amazing - very welcoming and provided water with every pastry/coffee. Outstanding arancini with spinanch and mozzarella, and other pastry too, really. Vegan croissants available. Lots of tables to sit at.

Best ice cream in Sciacca, plenty of choices and so affordable, only €2.50 for three scoops, we enjoyed it and tasted it almost every night, highly recommended❤️

The Ciambella was legendary. Super smooth, fresh, tasty! Easy and very relaxed atmosphere among the staff which is inspiring.

Delicious brioche with ice cream! The portion was huge and the price was reasonable for the size. The icing on the brioche (😉) was the gentleman who served us who spoke excellent English with a British accent - very nice, friendly and helpful. Regards!

Hidden, off the beaten track bar with tables and a small number (10 when we visited, 21:45 Monday) of laid-back deck chairs. Nice, friendly staff. Great Latino music playing. Cool vibe. Probably hopping later in the night.

The cocktails were full of flavor, and the atmosphere was great and relaxing.

Great cocktails, and beautiful views especially at sunset.

(Translated by Google) I spent a few days in this wonderful corner of Sicily and I'm already dreaming of returning. The sea view from Rocca Regine is simply spectacular: crystal-clear waters and breathtaking views that seem straight out of a postcard. The locals are welcoming, warm, and always smiling. The food was truly delicious: I ate wonderfully every day, rediscovering the true flavors of Sicily. Every sunset is magical to watch in silence, and in the evenings, the atmosphere is tranquil yet vibrant, with beautiful and fun parties that make the atmosphere even more special. The staff is friendly, attentive, but never intrusive. They welcome you with a smile, make you feel immediately at home, and are always ready to offer advice on places to visit or chat with genuine warmth. I recommend this place to anyone seeking relaxation, authentic beauty, good food, and fun. Highly recommended! (Original) Ho passato qualche giorno in questo meraviglioso angolo di Sicilia e già sogno di tornarci. Il mare che si vede da Rocca Regine è semplicemente spettacolare: acque cristalline e panorami mozzafiato che sembrano usciti da una cartolina. La gente del posto è accogliente, calorosa e sempre sorridente. Il cibo era davvero buonissimo: ho mangiato benissimo ogni giorno, riscoprendo i veri sapori siciliani. Ogni tramonto è una magia da guardare in silenzio, e la sera si respira un’aria tranquilla ma piena di vita, con feste bellissime e divertenti che rendono l’atmosfera ancora più speciale. Il personale è gentile, presente ma mai invadente. Ti accolgono con il sorriso, ti fanno sentire subito a casa e sono sempre pronti a dare consigli sui luoghi da visitare o a scambiare due chiacchiere con cordialità autentica.consiglio questo posto a chi cerca relax, bellezza autentica, buon cibo e divertimento.

(Translated by Google) I had a truly delightful experience at Rocca Regina in Sciacca. I'd like to give special praise to Giuseppe, a caring, professional, and truly kind man. A few days later, he remembered the cocktail I'd ordered and that I'd loved: he personally prepared it for me, and I must say, it was exceptional! It's rare to find someone so attentive to the needs and tastes of his customers. He also knows how to recommend excellent pairings and dishes to try, demonstrating passion and care in everything he does. My sincere compliments to him: people like him truly make a difference and make the place even more special! (Original) Ho avuto un’esperienza davvero piacevolissima al Rocca Regina di Sciacca. Vorrei fare un particolare elogio a Giuseppe, un ragazzo attento, professionale e davvero gentile. A distanza di giorni si è ricordato del cocktail che avevo preso e che mi era piaciuto: me lo ha preparato personalmente e devo dire che è stato eccezionale! È raro trovare qualcuno così attento alle esigenze e ai gusti della clientela. Inoltre sa consigliare ottimi abbinamenti e piatti da gustare, dimostrando passione e cura in tutto ciò che fa. Complimenti sinceri a lui: persone così fanno davvero la differenza e rendono il locale ancora più speciale!

The place is really rundown and sad. Great potential, beautiful views and surroundings, but full of rubbish and litter thrown by people visiting. It seems like Sicilian people do not like to take care of their areas of natural beauty, and do not feel responsible for disposing of their rubbish in the proper way. I know, this should really be taken care of by the town or regional council, but when it isn't the citizens have the power to organise it. The caves were closed, I think indefinitely, which is a shame, another natural resource that is closed to the public

We came across this ceramic shop by chance, but it became one of the most treasured memories of our holiday in Sicily. The owners are a wonderful couple in their golden years, and although we do not speak Italian, we had such warm and effortless communication with them. This still warms my heart to this day. The ceramics are stunning, with bright colours and designs that are both sophisticated and cosy, evoking dreamlike scenes. I definitely recommend visiting this place not just to buy something beautiful, but to truly experience Sciacca, Sicily and its wonderful people.

(Translated by Google) Small artisan shop in the historic center of Sciacca. The owner is kind and helpful.

Very interesting exhibition. It is located a little bit off the beaten track, but it's worth it!

A great collection and a wonderful helpful enthusiastic owner. Definitely worth a visit!

Great museum - the last two rooms were such a “walk down memory lane”. My daughter found it fascinating to watch her Mum and Dad remember and laugh about the many toys they played with as a child of her age! The owner was very attentive, helpful and knowledgeable about the toys and history. A very lovely experience.

This is a place which is going to become big and important. Now, it's still at its early childhood, the design is a bit old-fashioned and the rooms are a bit dark and spooky, but the whole thing has a great potential: it shows the history of toys starting from the 1880's till 1980's. For little kids it was a bit boring, but for us, big kids in their 40's, it was great to see our toys again. I really loved the shop-owner, who charmed us away with some really nice stories and whose passion was contagious. I suggest that they order some of the toys from the last room, so people can buy one and take a piece of this magic world home. Nice people, great initiative.

For a rainy day a way to spend a great moment with children . Rich in toys declined in 6 periods . Nice family time .... And for parents a come back in his childhood.

Excellent. The owner showed us around and was really knowledgable and passionate about the museum. Great thing to do with the kids before heading out for dinner. 30 minutes well spent.

We enjoyed a large collection of toys with great accompanying stories by Alessandro. Entertaining for adults and good fun for children!

It was our biggest highligt during the Sicily holiday. This is way more than just a soap museum! During the "botanical adventure in the middle of the olives" Alessandro gave us insights into the wonderful project on sustainable permaculture. The olives grove is so beautiful, and we learned a lot about other mediterrean plant species. We had a chance to taste the extra virgin oil and some olives as well as the pomgranades. Also their new product - artisian gin with pomegrande and 4 other botanicals is just amazing - we bought 1 bottle and are looking forward to enjoy it at home! We can highly recommend it, it's a suitable experience for families with children, our 2yo fell in love with the juicy pomegranades. The booking was straight forward, Alessandro responded very quickly to my email and all the communication was in flawless English. Payment possible by card or in cash after the tour.

Really cool tour told us a lot about the history of soap and the history of the equipment he’s restoring!

A really well informed tour! Host was bubbly and friendly. Its a great experience to learn about Mediterranean culture and history and how something as mundane as soap has changed over the centuries! The museo is equipped with a quaint collection of artifacts that serve as stepping stones into the past.

Very great experience! We took part in the two-hour tour in a group of only two. He told us a lot about olives, oil and soaps with passion. Together we also made our own soap. With a short walk outside, Alessandro showed us a piece of his land where his olives grow. He also showed us how to taste olive oil. The tour ended with a few glasses of wine on top of the house with a stunning view over the surrounding landscape. Grazie per l'esperienza (in tutte le tue lingue), ci siamo sentiti molto bene.

A fascinating guide to soap! Our host would like people to call and book tours.

We truly had a great time and experience learning about the soap making and olive oil. Alessandro, the owner of the property who speaks great English was very informative and full of enthusiasm. He loves what he does and it really shows. We had a great learning experience. This is truly a must see when in Sciacca. It was honestly the highlight of our trip.

Very nice, small museum with very energetic and enthusiastic guide: Alessandro. I can fully recommend this museum. You will know things you never knew about history of soap and people. Don't hesitate - you will not regret.

A nice place to visit for a couple of hours with a great view

Nice architecture

Perfect place for a deep personal reflection 😔

Stunning views

Plaque of leonardo Friscia on the wall

Super

(Translated by Google) The basilica stands on Mount Kronio. Externally, it has no striking features, but its Baroque architecture is entirely worth a visit. Construction began in the 1400s and was completed in the 1600s. We were fortunate enough to visit the Grotto of San Calogero. It's evocative. The entire mountain has tunnels and natural hot springs that are not open to visitors but are of great geological value. The view is spectacular. (Original) La basica sorge sul monte Kronio, estenamente nob ha guizzi ma interamente c'è del barocco e merita la visita. Iniziata ha costruire nel 1400 e conclusa nel 1600. Abbiamo avuto la fortuna di poter visitare la grotta di San Calogero. Suggestiva. Tutto il monte ha gallerie e terme naturali non visitabili ma di grande valore geologico. La vista è spettacolare

Nice place to see if you are in the area, would not travel to see it alone as it takes 20 minutes or so to go around

Not worth the 20 minute walk or the 3E ticket. Not even a good view. The minimul display was disappointing. Better suggestion is Casa Museo Francesco Scalione alongside the Basillica. Interesting ans free.

It's a nice piece of Sciacca history. The castle was smaller than we thought. Beautiful view of the ocean, and town. Short walk. We weren't able to go up the tower. But I bet at night it lights up and is beautiful to dine in.

Pretty underappreciated place with small amounts of tourists! A very nice view from the castle walls! You can make great photos from there! The castle itself is pretty much in ruins, but there is a tower still standing with some historical and recreated weaponry and armor. I also liked the recounting of the castle's past, which you can read at the entrance.

They will charge you 3€ even though it is 15 minutes before closing time. I walked all the way up here but was not allowed a little peak inside. My only day i Sciacca so I can't come back.

Small castle but worth a quick visit. There are a number of small displays (the male chastity belt will raise eyebrows) and it has excellent views of the sea.

Just ok

(Translated by Google) Interesting place to visit if you are in the area. The visits are managed by an association of volunteers who with a lot of good will (and as almost always, without public support) manage to enhance this complex of caves in which one can witness the phenomenon of the rising steam produced by deep magmatic activities. Steam which, when they were functioning, powered the Sciacca spa. The visits are free but the volunteers accept donations with a free amount. Advised. (Original) Luogo interessante da visitare se ci si trova in zona. Le visite sono gestite da un’associazione di volontari che con tanta buona volontà (e come quasi sempre, senza supporto pubblico) riescono a valorizzare questo complesso di grotte nelle quali si può assistere ad fenomeno della risalita del vapore prodotto dalle attività magmatiche profonde. Vapore che, quando erano funzionanti, alimentava le terme di Sciacca. Le visite sono gratuite ma i volontari accettano donazioni con importo libero. Consigliato.

Ok so we read in the reviews already the unfriendly answers to people commenting that the place is closed. We also went because the whole situation is unclear: The location in Google maps is wrong This locations' maps page seems to be claimed by an event business 80% of information here in Sicilly in google maps seems to be inaccurate. So why would someone, from the facts above, take away the site really is closed? Put the official website, put why and how long its closed and that's it. Not so complicated. By the way we had a friendly family from Sambuca with us. Italians from Sicily and also they didn't understand what's going on. And maybe write a bit nicer replies to people. However we didn't regret it as the view is breathtaking.;)

(Translated by Google) Fantastic place told by a very good guide from the 5 senses Ecomuseum. The official opening hours are Friday Saturday and Sunday from 5pm to 7pm, but check the official website of the 5 senses where additional openings are also indicated. In August also from 10am to 12pm. The guided tour is full of details, curiosities and information, you visit the San Calogero cave and then the two geothermal caves with 100% humidity. Beautiful experience, not to be missed if you are in Sciacca (Original) Luogo fantastico raccontato da una bravissima guida dell'Ecomuseo 5 sensi.

(Translated by Google) The Widespread Museum of the 5 Senses has been able to uniquely enhance the beauties and great treasures that are present in Sciacca, becoming a true open-air museum. It is an entire community that has chosen to unite to protect the peculiar identities of its land and share them with the traveller, through numerous experiences aimed at enhancing all 5 senses: the flavor of local foods, the colors of the Sicilian lands, the sounds and works of the people who live in Sciacca, and the scents of their fruits. I had the pleasure of meeting the very nice Daleo gentlemen, who love creating personalized environments with their fabrics, and Mrs Sabrina, whose refined hands create coral creations of extraordinary elegance and originality. Finally, thanks to this initiative, Toni's availability and kindness, I was able to work on my first ceramic and, after several minutes of work, I was unable to create anything similar to his great works 😂 I recommend everyone to go there and try even just one of the experiences they offer, you won't regret it! I conclude with their motto: Assabinidica! ❤️ (Original) Il Museo Diffuso dei 5 Sensi ha saputo valorizzare in modo unico le bellezze ed i grandi tesori che sono presenti a Sciacca, divenendo un vero e proprio Museo a cielo aperto. Si tratta di un'intera comunità che ha scelto di unirsi per tutelare le identità peculiari della propria terra e condividerle con il viaggiatore, attraverso numerose esperienze volte ad esaltare tutti i 5 sensi: il sapore dei cibi locali, i colori delle terre sicule, i suoni e le opere delle persone che vivono a Sciacca, ed i profumi dei loro frutti. Ho avuto il piacere di incontrare i simpaticissimi signori Daleo, che amano creare ambienti personalizzati con i loro tessuti, e la signora Sabrina, dalle cui mani raffinate nascono creazioni in corallo di straordinaria eleganza ed originalità. Infine, grazie a questa iniziativa, alla disponibilità e alla gentilezza di Toni ho avuto modo di lavorare la mia prima ceramica e, dopo svariati minuti di lavoro, non sono riuscita a creare niente di simile alle sue grandissime opere 😂 Consiglio a tutti di andarci e di provare anche solo una delle esperienze che propongono, non ve ne pentirete! Concludo con il loro motto: Assabinidica! ❤️

(Translated by Google) My experience with the Museo Diffuso 5 Sensi was very disappointing from the start. I had booked a workshop with my friends and, even though they told me that they would call me to confirm the workshop, I ended up having to call and insist on receiving a confirmation. After several calls, we finally got an appointment for September 6th at 5 pm, with advance payment. Unfortunately, when we arrived in Sciacca, the designated place for the workshop (a restaurant) was closed. After contacting the manager, they informed us that there would be a 10 minute delay due to organizational problems. The delay then lasted for half an hour, and we were about to leave disappointed when we finally met the workshop instructor, who explained to us that he had only been informed at 5 pm and needed time to organize himself. This meant that the workshop would start at 5:45 pm. Of course, we had a later dinner planned and we would not have been able to complete a 2-hour workshop with a 45 minute delay. I was refunded but my vacation day was ruined by their extremely poor and unprofessional organization. I would strongly advise against booking a workshop with them. (Original) La mia esperienza con il Museo Diffuso 5 Sensi è stata molto deludente fin dall'inizio. Avevo prenotato un workshop con i miei amici e, nonostante mi avessero detto che mi avrebbero chiamato per confermare il workshop, ho finito per dover chiamare io e insistere per ricevere una conferma. Dopo varie chiamate, finalmente abbiamo ottenuto un appuntamento per il 6 settembre alle 17, con pagamento anticipato. Purtroppo, quando siamo arrivati a Sciacca, il luogo designato per il workshop (un ristorante) era chiuso. Dopo aver contattato il responsabile, ci hanno informato che ci sarebbero stati 10 minuti di ritardo dovuti a problemi organizzativi. Il ritardo si è poi protratto per mezz'ora, e stavamo per andarcene delusi quando finalmente abbiamo incontrato l'istruttore del workshop, il quale ci ha spiegato che era stato informato solo alle 17 e aveva bisogno di tempo per organizzarsi. Questo significava che il workshop sarebbe iniziato alle 17:45. Ovviamente, avevamo pianificato una cena successiva e non saremmo riusciti a completare un workshop di 2 ore con un ritardo di 45 minuti. Mi è stata rimborsata la somma ma la giornata di vacanza è stata rovinata dalla loro organizzazione estremamente scadente e poco professionale. Sconsiglierei vivamente di prenotare un workshop con loro.

Michele Bono’s studio is enchanting. He creates unusual highly imaginative pieces. I wish I had bought more of them, though I bought quite a few

I had the opportunity of visiting Studio D'Arte Michele Bono in September and absolutely loved Mr. Bono's creative work. After visiting several art studios in Sicily, I can say this one is - by far - the best. Additionally, Mr. Bono is very helpful, attentive, and always willing to explain his art. He has mastered the traditional ceramic techniques and apply them to create unique innovative pieces. I purchased a beautiful sculpture and wish I had space in my luggage to buy more. I will definitely pass by next time in in Sicily.

Very kind people leant to me an iron on the day of my friends wedding in Sciacca. Beautful art for sale as well.

Wonderful unique ceramics. We loved the vibrant colours of the hipos, rhinos and chameleons. Well worth a visit!

(Translated by Google) Very satisfied with the company of the Fruttimythologica couple created by Michele Bono: not only are they beautiful ceramics, but they arrived in northern Italy in three days, perfectly intact and not even tired! As for the shop, it is a small paradise of creativity, associated with the courtesy of Michele and his wife..... A place to return to, and in the meantime, to send ceramic lovers with soul...... (Original) Molto soddisfatta della compagnia della coppia fruttimythologica creata da Michele Bono: non solo sono bellissime ceramiche, ma sono arrivate in tre giorni nel nord Italia, perfettamente integre e neanche stanche!

Un posto dove tornare, e mentre tanto, dove mandare amanti della ceramica con anima......
