Valley of the Temples Private Tour

At your chosen time, we'll meet at the designated meeting point in the Valley of the Temples to start our private tour of Agrigento, known to the Greeks as Agracante.

This 2-hour tour explores a significant area of Magna Graecia, comparable to the Acropolis of Athens. Its Doric temples were declared a World Heritage Site in 1998 due to their preservation.

We will enjoy a view of the Mediterranean Sea from the Temple of Juno before walking along the Via Sacra, admiring ancient walls referenced by Virgil in The Aeneid. Our tour will include the Temple of Concordia, where we'll learn about its history.

We will pass by a paleochristian necropolis and discuss various historical periods represented in the area, along with views of the Temples of Heracles and Zeus while hearing legends about Agracante.

The tour concludes 2 hours after starting at the Temple of Zeus.

3-hour Tour

For an extended experience, you can visit the Temple of Castor and Pollux and the Kolymbetra Garden, showcasing typical Sicilian orange and lemon trees. After 3 hours of exploration, we will finish the private tour in the Kolymbetra Garden.
