Mobile ticket
Feel the warmth of the Sicilian sun on golden stones and breathe in the scent of olive groves as you journey through the Valley of the Temples, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Accompanied by a licensed guide in English or Spanish, explore one of the world’s most extraordinary archaeological parks, where history, myth, and landscape blend in harmony.
Step by step, admire the majestic Temple of Juno, the graceful Temple of Concordia, the legendary Temple of Hercules, and the monumental ruins of the Temple of Zeus, once the largest Greek temple ever built.
Through vivid storytelling, your guide will bring to life the glory of ancient Agrigentum, one of Magna Graecia’s most powerful colonies. More than a tour, this is a sensorial journey: hear the crunch of gravel, feel the play of light on the ruins, and watch the temples glow at sunset. Leave not just with knowledge, but with an unforgettable emotional connection to Sicily’s ancient soul.

Don't make a mistake to take a tour without a guide

5.00It was a perfect afternoon for a visit. It looked like it's going to rain but it didn't so it was cool. The only inconvenience that we had was that Viator is sending a map with the meeting point marked inside of the exhibition, which is very confusing. But the star of the show was our guide Luigi. He really put in a lot of effort to engage us and make us realize how important this place is. We had a great time, the best so far in Sicily.
Wonderful experience

5.00Our guided tour was very informative and worth having someone explain the history of the area. It was a relaxing stroll, the view of the city and the countryside were amazing. We were able to get very close to the temples. It is worth doing it in the late afternoon as the sun was setting and the temples were nicely illuminated for fabulous pictures. After the tour, you are able to wonder on your own to enjoy the experience more.
Interesting to see.

Yes. Good place to visit.

5.00Our tour guide Luigi was fantastic! Very interactive and knowledgeable. A late afternoon tour is the only way to see this site as it was quite hot. A must see in Agrigento
Very poor experience

1.00Guide’s English was good but the information he provided was rambling & incoherent with little information about the temples themselves - we learnt more from the signs at the temples. Tour was advertised as a 5pm tour but he left at 450pm before 4 other tourists had arrived. Would not recommend this guide - he spoiled our experience of what is a beautiful place. Never introduced himself so don’t know his name.

5.00The guide's account was truly very rewarding and educational. He demonstrated extensive knowledge of the subject and the ability to convey it. It was not only educational, but also very fun. I recommend it.
