It was super delicious and relaxing. - Ettore was very nice and funny. We were first shown around the market and were able to choose what we wanted to use to make the arancini. After a quick stop at a local restaurant, our hunger was already satisfied and we were able to get to work in the workshop. Everything was super delicious! Thank you

A lovely afternoon - Chef Ettore was kind, funny, and knowledgeable! We had a great time walking through the market place. The food we created was marvelous! The chef made sure to review the steps with us so that we would be able to recreate the dish at home. I would recommend this cooking experience.

Excellent! - When I went to book this tour by SiciLife I was really disappointed to be told that the tour was booked out for several days. So I was very happily surprised when they contacted me to tell me they were putting on an extra tour. I was both surprised and grateful when I discovered that they had organised this extra tour for just two people, myself and an Italian lady. So we had pretty much a private tour for only €25. Paulo, the guide, was excellent and really nice and as the other person was Italian and I speak Italian, we proceeded in Italian. However, Paulo had excellent English and was fully prepared to give a bilingual tour. So fair play! The tour itself was really interesting and covered all the important points and was a great way to get your bearings on this tiny but exquisite island. Most enjoyable and huge thanks to SiciLife!

Misleading Company That Switches Tours and Does Not Tell You - I would never book with Empeeria again. If you are going to book the tour, use another provider. They wrote me a message shortly before the tour asking if I could move it to another date. I told them that we were only available for the original date we booked, and they said no problem. When we arrived, the tour was changed to one that would take 2 hours longer and was not what we booked. This is the reason they wanted us to change the date, but they never told us that. As a result, we did not get the tour we paid for. I wrote them after and they did not accept responsibility for changing the tour.
