Discover the process of salt production and observe flamingos at their natural habitat during this informative guided tour.



On this two-hour guided tour, embark upon a unique journey through the enchanting Trapani salt flats. Under the expert guidance of a seasoned local, immerse yourself in the rich history of salt production as we traverse a meticulously maintained family-owned salt pan. As we proceed, discover the intricacies of traditional salt-making techniques by exploring the tranquil interiors of a restored historic mill. Inside the converted structure, uncover the secrets behind the creation of exquisite salt samples, allowing you to taste the authentic flavors at your fingertips.

Our exploration continues as we venture to three distinct salt pans, each offering breathtaking views of the vast expanse of shimmering salt crystals. Our eyes remain vigilant for the colorful transformations of these majestic birds—flamingos, once migratory residents, now call the flats their temporary domain. Their vibrant hues provide a stunning contrast against the backdrop of the serene landscape.

As twilight approaches, step back from the bustling scene and take a moment to appreciate the serenity of the salt pools' reflections under the setting sun's golden light. This natural phenomenon creates a mesmerizing visual spectacle, further enhancing our experience.
