Valley of the Temples Sunset Tour

Join us for a sunset tour of the Valley of the Temples in Agrigento, starting at the Porta di Giunone. This visit focuses on the history, art, and mythology of the site.

The tour begins at the Temple of Juno, where we will explore the most significant archaeological site in Sicily and learn about ancient rituals and celebrations. We will enjoy the stunning views of the sprawling valleys illuminated by the sunset.

Next, we will walk to the Temple of Heracles, one of the oldest structures in the valley. From there, we will proceed to the Temple of Concord, a remarkable example of Doric architecture. Its proportions and design, combined with the sunset, offer a picturesque scene.

Our journey continues to the Temple of Olympian Zeus, where the colossal columns highlight its historical significance. The tour concludes at the Porta V, an ancient entrance to the city that led to the great sanctuary of the Chthonic deities. We will share insights into the mysteries surrounding the Underworld.

The tour will last 2 hours.
