Very nice, small museum run by the owners of the local salt production facility. Guide included which is highly informative! Be there at sunset, awesome site!

An excellent insight into salt production, lovely hosts in the Museum and a wonderful photographic sight too. Excellent place to practice your composition too.

This is highly recommend. The visit will help the visitor to understand how the salt is extracted from sea water. The guide speaks English and she knows a lot on the subject.

An interesting museum, restaurant, and an operating sea salt harvesting operation, all still in private ownership. Three sons work in different areas of the entire operation. Guided tours are in Italian and English, take about half an hour, and are very informative. The museum entrance fee is currently €4.00. There are great views from the rooftop of the museum over to Trapani and the Egadi Islands. Don't miss a walk around all the salt water ponds that are in different stages of the salt harvesting operation.

Incredibly interesting museum on the salt production of this family run bussiness. Included in the museum entry cost was a tour, which we had in English. Would love to visit during the salt harvest!

Beautiful place! The museum offers guide tours, very interesting and our tour guide Maria was wonderful!

I recommend visiting in the afternoon before closing so that you can also enjoy the unique spectacle offered by sunset over the Islands

really very beautiful, especially with the sunrise!

Lovely experience Visiting these salt pans is a must in Trapani

Lovely tour of the salt pans by the owner and an animated tour of the museum by the owners son. You can also buy their salt which is amazing !

Very nice short walk between the pools. Entrance is 1€/person and at the entrance you can buy salt from this region (and try it before). What I found lacking is information or signs with fun facts but overall it was very nice, short walk. There is a restaurant there as well but we did not try it.

Great place to learn about the Sicilian salt pans. The mill belongs to a family who also owns the museum and the shop attached to it. Please make sure you wrap up, the wind is very, very strong (and essential to salt producing).

Wonderful place for a relaxing walk around the corner

Very interesting exhibition of the wooden sculptures, that are used in religious processione during religious Catholic festivals around the year. Very interesting experience

I don't any opinion to hate Malta or Gozo I really love it

Gorgeous 750am daily mass

You can’t go to TrapanI without visiting the Chiesa Delle Anime Sante Del Purgatorio. This church houses the 20 life-size statues used for the annual Good Friday procession in Trapani. This tradition began in the 16th century. Each statue sits on a platform carried by 22 men for 24 hours. A marching band accompanies them. Many people from the town follow the procession throughout the night, which covers the entire city. I was fortunate enough to experience this 15+ years ago. It is one of the most moving religious events I’ve ever attended.

having some activities for easter that so many local and wooden sculpture. first time to see that but no lucky on the function not take place at our visit day.

The church itself is not very particular. The statues however are impressive. They are so detailed and realistic. It was amazing, and I can really recommend going there. Also: It's free.

Big stations of the cross carried around town on Good Friday.

Just a regular small church, but it hosts the 20 group of statues making up the traditional procession of Misteri, hekd in Trapani each year on good Friday

This church replaced the concept of fresco with sculptures of scenes from the new testament. It is original and well done. Definetly the worth a visit!

Nice vie but no information table or anything.

(Translated by Google) Visited in November 2023. I discovered this place while walking along the beach north of Trapani. It is a place where you can take a rest on the way to the lighthouse, with light winds and an open view. (Original) 2023년 11월 방문했습니다. 트라파니 북쪽 해변가를 걸으면서 발견하게 된 곳입니다. 강하지않은 바람과 탁트인 시야를 접할수 있는곳으로 등대까지 가는중간에 쉴수있는곳입니다.

(Translated by Google) Quiet area but let go. In my opinion the only area of ​​interest is the nature reserve which is just a few minutes from the beach. Beach without infamy and without praise. It would be much better if not neglected (Original) Zona tranquilla ma lasciata andare. A parere mio l’unica zona di interesse è la riserva naturale che dista pochi minuti dalla spiaggia. Spiaggia senza infamia e senza lode. Sarebbe molto meglio se non trascurata

(Translated by Google) This powerful bastion was built for military purposes in the 16th century. Its purpose, in fact, was to allow the soldiers to control the large stretch of sea north of the city. Today it can only be reached from the walk of the Mura di Tramontana and the panorama that can be observed there is enchanting. (Original) Questo poderoso bastione venne costruito per scopi militari nel '500. La sua finalità, infatti, era quella di permettere ai soldati di poter controllare l’ampio tratto di mare a nord della città. Oggi è raggiungibile soltanto dalla passeggiata delle Mura di Tramontana ed il panorama che vi si può osservare è incantevole.

(Translated by Google) The bastion, located at the end of the famous Tramontana walk, is well restored, but the adjacent and visible part in contact is crumbling and in complete decay, thus disfiguring both the structure and the beautiful panorama.... It is a pity . (Original) Il bastione, posto alla fine della nota camminata di tramontana,è ben restaurato, ma la parte adiacente e visibile a contatto è fatiscente ed in completo degrado deturpando così sia la struttura che il bel panorama .... É un vero peccato .

(Translated by Google) Breathtaking panorama and wonderful view of the north-west side of Trapani.. (Original) Panorama mozzafiato e stupenda veduta del lato nord-ovest di Trapani..

(Translated by Google) Spectacular, a beautiful glimpse of the old city (Original) Spettacolare, uno scorcio di città vecchia bellissimo

(Translated by Google) We went there for mid-August, a nice evening with folklore and Neapolitan music. The night walk is very suggestive (Original) Ci siamo passati per ferragosto, serata carina con musica di folklore e partenopea. Molto suggestiva la passeggiata notturna

Lots of history. Lots of artifacts. 1 guillotine

A stunning museum in such a beautiful environment, the ex-convent of the Carmelites, placed side by side to the Santuario dell'Annunziata (Sanctuary of our Lady of Annunciation) known also as Madonna di Trapani. The rich patrimonium of the museum is originated from 3 private collections (Fardella, Pepoli and Hernandez') . There are very important manufactures of the Malophoros shrine in Selinunte and other referring to the Phoenician culture coming from the escavation of Mothya, Birgi and Lilibeo. Incredible amphora with its lid and gymn scenes painted dated back to VI Century A. C. This is "black figures" whereas among those with red paintings the most relevant is the Crater decorated with a design of a Dionisiac dance. Important archeological finds coming from First Punic War are also present. The museum preserves also hundreds of pieces that testimony one of the most important activities of Trapani, the art of coral, know abd esteemed all over the world. Definitely a must stop museum.

Really rude personell. I was not allowed entry because I didn't have exact change for the ticket and you can't pay by card.

It's a good archeological museum that has various artifacts and has a wonderful collection of coral artwork.

The museum was fine. I've never seen so many people working in a basically empty museum of this size, maybe 20 people? Looks like someone is paying well!

Very well equipped museum

Hidden Gem not to miss when in Trapani

Liked it a lot. Great exhibition, however some notes in English would not hurt. Unfortunately whole place seemed to need better maintenance but a very positive experience in general. You'd need a lot of time to see it all.

Unfortunately we couldn't visit. We went on sunday at 12.00 but we could not enter the museum. It Is supposed to close at 13.00 pm and reopens on Tuesday.

Awesome place. Wish they had a cathedral coin like catania and palermo cathedrals.

We went to mass there. The Church is beautiful and the music sung by a nun was lovely. Very prayerful experience

There are many cathedrals in this city and they are filled with history and gorgeous. This one is is not exceptional. Be sure to take a look at the ceiling, as well as the organ. Also, check out the arches throughout the entire cathedral.

Okay 👍

You can visit it, but it's not neccesery.

Amazing architecture, specially the ceiling

The cathedral of San Lorenzo is a pretty baroque cathedral in the center of the old city. As with many churches in this town, and in Italy, the church façade and gates are lining up flush with the residential buildings to the left and right. I visited the church on a public (Feragosto) and religious holiday (Assumption of Mary), and a long procession was coming to an end inside the Cathedral. A very moving display of Italian Catholic religiosity.

Beautiful old church near the Port of Trapani, an easy walk. Getting it all in a picture is tough with the streets. Lots of highly decorated roof panels & detailed marble components with the eight pointed stars. Very interesting.

Another cathedral. Beautiful!

Wonderful cathedral. Lovely experience.

We love the architecture. There were few people.

Beautiful architecture, images, and art.

Very nice place. Beautiful view and recently renewed building

Nice place with views. It was closed when we visited (mid day July). It is worth to go behind the tower - going on the rocks-view and filling is amazing

Beautiful view. Museum closed. We walked on the rocks. Sat down and enjoyed beautiful view at least. Be careful on rock, not that much safe!! I’m

Small castle looking tower at the end of an old pier. It is now an archeological museum as well as a rooftop observation point

We went there Febuary 2022. Cold and super windy. The waves are big. Nobody there except us. Very silent snd beautiful place to visit. Parking is available for free and for paying. The Ligny Tower is part of the medieval city fortifications of the city of Trapani in Sicily, which is also the western tip of the city. These defensive structures included other towers, such as the two southern Torre Colombaia and Torre Nubia.

The view is wonderful, however the tower was closed. I think in winter there is no visits.

Close by this tower is a nice stony beach access

We had nice visit but the tower was not open because it was too wendy. The view is great even from the walk way.

A fortification tower at the NW end of the old town. The tower is about three storeys high and has a small museum inside. The entrance fee is €1.00. The best part is the terrace on top of the tower, which provides a 360° view of the Mediterranean and Tyrrhenian seas, and over the town of Trapani. In the past, the four corners were furnished with canons. The tower still functioned as a lookout point during WW II.

Beautiful cathedral. Very moving and spiritual with beautiful paintings and statues. A must see whether you are religous or not....

it's not the cathedral, but it's the main devotional church for the locals. worth a visit

(Translated by Google) We highly recommend renting a car. Excellent contact, we received all information, terms and cost of renting a car by e-mail. Everything in Polish is a huge advantage. Thank you very much Mrs. Ola! The car rental went smoothly. Everything matched the offer. Most importantly, we paid cash on the spot, no credit card needed, the price included full insurance. We didn't worry about the car and possible adventures throughout our stay, which fortunately we didn't have. Well, maybe except for one, where we received a ticket for parking in a prohibited place. In fact, you have to be careful where you park, more than sure that the Police will come and give you a ticket. And here great appreciation for ANGELO, who agreed to pay the fine received at the post office on our behalf. Many thanks again Angelo. 😊 We highly, highly recommend and warmly greet! 😊😊😊 (Original) Polecamy bardzo wynajem auta. Kontakt znakomity, wszystkie informacje, warunki oraz koszt wynajmu auta otrzymaliśmy na e-mail. Wszystko w języku polskim, to ogromny atut. Dziękuję bardzo pani Olu! Wynajem auta przebiegł sprawnie. Wszystko się zgadzało z ofertą. Co najważniejsze, płaciliśmy gotówką na miejscu, nie potrzebna była karta kredytowa, cena obejmowała pełne ubezpieczenie. Nie martwiliśmy się przez cały pobyt o sprawy związane z autem i ewentualnymi przygodami, których na szczęście nie mieliśmy. No może poza jedną, gdzie otrzymaliśmy mandat za parkowanie w miejscu niedozwolonym. Faktycznie trzeba uważać gdzie się parkuje, więcej jak pewne, że zjawi się Policja i wlepi mandat. I tu wielkie uznanie dla ANGELO, który zgodził się opłacić w naszym imieniu otrzymany mandat w placówce pocztowej. Jeszcze raz wielkie dzięki Angelo. 😊 Bardzo, bardzo polecamy i serdecznie pozdrawiamy! 😊😊😊

Company helped us with getting a car in Catania with full insurance, no credit card and a very good price. Car that we've got was far more better than we needed. So a big plus and a huge cudos for the support.

I sincerely recommend.

The Trapani Food Tour was hands down the best day of our trip! Vincenzo was knowledgeable and made the experience worthwhile (along with all the delicious food).

Wonderfully organized food tour, I learned a lot about Trapani and tried local dishes and desserts😋🥰

I recently booked an accommodation and I must say it was a complete letdown. From start to finish, my experience with this company was filled with frustration, miscommunication, and ultimately, a waste of time and money. Re: the checkin was one hour after what was agreed, Ryanair had a delay of 3 hours and I immediately contacted you before leaving.

Car rental is terrible. I've got very old fiat panda with broken driver seat and 3/4 petrol which I had to fill up on the end of the trip. Don't recommend that and avoid their cars.

(Translated by Google) We booked a car and a yacht cruise to Favignana and Levanzo. Everything was handled professionally via e-mail before departure. Great yacht cruise, great team of Italians on the yacht, cultured, fun, delicious pasta with pesto Trapanese, good wine, as many as 3 baths in azure water. The car was also ok, we got a Fiat 500, we reached Zingaro and Palermo without any problems. I definitely recommend, nice and professional! (Original) Skorzystaliśmy z rezerwacji auta i rejsu jachtem na Favignanę i Levanzo. Wszystko załatwione profesjonalnie za pomocą e-maila jeszcze przed wyjazdem.

Auto też ok, dostaliśmy Fiata 500, bez problemu dotarliśmy do Zingaro i Palermo. Zdecydowanie polecam, miło i profesjonalnie!

(Translated by Google) A perfectly organized 8-hour boat cruise around the surrounding islands. The ship stopped three times in beautiful bays and allowed us to freely go down or jump into the water.

Podczas rejsu otrzymaliśmy rożnego rodzaju przekąski oraz obiad.

Great place with a lot of optical illusions that can really make you doubt yourself. It is guided tours so it can be smart to book this in advance. The tour takes around 45 minutes. The tour guide was just great and she took pictures for us. Well worth a visit.

As good for kids as it is for adults. Guided visit with a lovely lady that really took care of every person in the group, children and adults

A must-go visit when in Trapani. The Museum is created with quite some love. Our tour guide Cynthia (?) was passionate, patient and very, very customer facing. Well done! We loved it.

I’d advise pre booking on their website. We had a great time, Julia was amazing, especially as she was doing the tour in English which she spoke incredibly well. Got some great pictures and is a fun hour.

We enjoyed every moment and it’s super fun and our tour guide Sofia was very helpful and explained everything in detail. Thank you

A fun visit and very well presented. They have some very good optical illusions. Visits are a maximum of 4 people per session. Price is 13€ per person. I thoroughly recommend.

It is a guided tour, which has its pros and cons but the guide really knew what she was talking about. It's a small place but she took her time explaining the history behind everything and how it worked. Don't buy tickets on your laptop as the website doesn't have the correct format. You need to book a slot using the mobile website and then you just pay when you get there.

It was such a nice experience. The museum is really interesting and the tour guides explained everything in a great way. I had a lot of fun and my guide took a lot of Nice pictures of the illusions for me.

I've been to two other museums of illusions, but this is the only one with guided tours, which is great. Our guide, Clara, made it a very fun experience and explained everything in a way easy to understand. The guides also take pictures for you and direct you on how to pose. The only downside for me was that you have to wear shoe covers, which kind of ruins these great pictures. Reservation is a must as the groups are small, so the slots fill quickly. You are required to pay upon arrival.

Not only for kids, but for grown ups, too. Thank you Monica for the guided English tour

We visited the museum last Sunday, we had not done any booking beforehand as I thought that we can walk in. However, thankfully they managed to fit us in 😄. Special thanks goes to Alessandra for her patience as we did not understand italian. So she explained perfectly well in English. The museum is fun to visit and very well taken care of.

It was a beautiful experience, very well explained, and the guide, Alessia, was very comprehending, patient and happy to explain. I went here for a school trip from the classical high school "G. Ugdulena" and I can say it was a fantastic experience. Very much would recommend!

Don't miss this if you are in Trapani You need to book your time slot online. They are extremely punctual. It's in the limited traffic area of Trapani old center. Parking is available about 5mins away Our guide Rita was great, but the whole team are really nice, welcoming and are great guides. The presentation is in Italian and English In winter it's only available on the weekend. Definitely not to miss

If you're looking to get out of the summer heat and want something fun for all ages this one's for you! It's really fun and funny.

Visited on a Sunday with ten year old daughter and really enjoyed this curious experience where science and fun collide! Our guide was excellent 👌 explaining each display in Italian and again in perfect English. We came away with some super photos and good memories. Well worth the trip, good value and also educational! All the boxes ticked. Highly recommend. Thanks MOOI ❤️🙏

Alesia was a very good tour guide. We really enjoyed our visit to the museum.

We had an wonderful experience at the museum. Our guide Sofia was amazing and spoke great English. She took some amazing pictures with us in of the illusion. It’s a really fun place to go and recommend on a hot day as it is air conditioned.

Great place with great and super friendly service, delicious snacks and good drinks. Recommend it 100%

Delight yourself and your friends. Great beers in Trapani. The place is relaxed and so will you :) Peace!

Great craft beers and great staff. This spot is perfect to have quality Italian/Sicilian craft beers, and some great snacks. The burgers were not amazing, but I don’t even care, cause the rest was awesome. Snacks were very good. Everything is “cheap”.

I really liked this place. They have a large selection of Italian craft beers, amongst other drinks. Prices are acceptable. Burgers looked great, chips were really nice. We also has the bruscietta with artichoke, ham and walnuts which was nice. Overall recommended.

A very disappointing evening. The service is very lackluster. We ordered a chicken and veal deconstructed burger. The veal one was ok, but the chicken one was awful. A small, thin piece of chicken, which was overcooked and dry. So dry it had curled at the edges, so they had cut it to try an make it lie flat. Greasy, overcooked dipper chips, three thin slices of old tomato and a lot of lettuce., to fill the space where the meat should have been. Would not recommend this bar for food or service, there are much nicer places around.

A real gem! A great selection of Italian craft beers with a warm and friendly welcome. Highly recommend!

Really like this place. Good selection of Italian craft beers (draft, bottles, cans). Good food. Friendly staff. Sport in TV. What do you need more?

A fantastic spot for craft beer fans, probably the best choice in the neighborhood! Make sure to check out the fridge for locals gems and treat yourself with amazing food, from creative snacks to burgers, salads and deserts. Staff is really very enthusiastic and caring, which also adds cool vibes ❤️

if you love beer you will love this place. The service is very nice and the food (burgers) very tasty! Being in Trapani is worth a visit :)

Wonderful craft beers. Gianni and the staff are all very friendly. Pleasant experience all around.

Good place with good menu and personalized approach to clients. Although they didn't have my initially chosen type of beer, they give me to probe three approximate beer variants for free and to choose a new one.

Fresh fish every day

Nice place, very friendly people. You can buy there fresh fish and sea fruits.

Very fresh fish and nice experience

Great place to be early in the morning....lots of atmosphere and fresh fish.....

New location much better selection with prices lower than grocery stores. Fresh daily. . You need to know what type of fish you are buying. Fish mongers are friendly and will clean fish for you.

Good place where to get local fish, fresh vegetables and fruit. But beware old or imported fish. If you cannot tell the difference, get help from some local. Vegetables and fruit are cheap and usually of high quality, but the quality of fish varies due to the weather (and richness of the catch of the day).

Great fish market. But the smell of drains and piles of rubbish let it down. The drain smell was so bad it puts you off buying anything. I'd also advise the local authorities that they need to tackle the litter and household waste issues in the area.

Small market, still interesting!

The atmosphere is as I remember when I was a child, very colourful, noisy and, somehow magical. The location is less colourful and more modern. I miss the old fish market location, on the other side of the old town.

Stunning church even though it’s pretty impossible to find it open (guess I was lucky today as they were getting ready to celebrate a marriage). The entrance is 1€/person, of course without receipt!

(Translated by Google) A few steps from the Cathedral of San Lorenzo, stands this beautiful baroque church which in my opinion is more beautiful than the cathedral itself. I particularly liked the interior richly decorated with stucco. Unfortunately it needs some restoration. In reality, however, no one explicitly asked us to pay to visit it (as someone else wrote). There was rather a box for free offers for the restoration. (Original) A pochi passi dalla Cattedrale di San Lorenzo, sorge questa bella chiesa barocca che a mio parere è più bella della cattedrale stessa. Mi è piaciuto in particolare l'interno riccamente decorato da stucchi. Purtroppo necessita un po' di restauri. In realtà però nessuno ci ha chiesto esplicitamente di pagare per visitarla (come qualcun altro ha scritto). C'era piuttosto una cassetta per libere offerte per il restauro.

(Translated by Google) Very suggestive, visit upon donation of one euro intended for restoration. (Original) Molto suggestiva, visita dietro offerta di un euro destinata al restauro.

(Translated by Google) A beautiful church. In my opinion even more beautiful than the cathedral. (Original) Una bellissima chiesa. A mio parere anche più bella della cattedrale.
