Valley of the Temples Tour

Valley of the Temples Tour

At the indicated time, we'll meet at the ticket office of the Valley of the Temples in Agrigento to start this tour of one of the best-preserved archaeological sites in Italy, a World Heritage Site.

As we explore the site, we'll observe twelve temples, two agoras, and a bouleuterion, the meeting place of the council. This area was the center of ancient Akragas, the first Greek settlement in Agrigento. We'll tour these structures that inspired poets and philosophers, uncovering their history and architectural features.

Our first stop will be the Temple of Juno, followed by the remains of the surrounding walls. Next, we will proceed to the Temple of Concordia, where we will also see an early Christian necropolis.

We will pass by the Temple of Heracles and the remains of the Temple of Zeus, highlighting the classical mythological divinities to whom these sites were dedicated.

After this tour of the Valley of the Temples of Agrigento, we will conclude our visit approximately 2 hours after the starting time.
