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.

5.00Our guide had a tremendous knowledge of the history through the millennia and was able to weave a story based on the surnames of the people on the tour. His approach was philosophical rooted in history. I was blown away.

5.00There is much to learn and know about the Valley of the Temples, so we decided to splurge on a private tour. We also figured that sunset would be lovely as the temples light up. We were right on both counts. Our guide, Sergio, was informative and entertaining. He knows his subject and makes connections which paint the big picture of this ancient Greek history. Sergio stayed with us well past our scheduled time and made sure we got back to our car safely. Chances are you are like us: just here once this lifetime. Make the best of it and book a private tour (with Sergio!).
Wonderful introduction to the Valley of the Temples.

5.00Our guide was Sergio, he was incredible. The place is absolutely magical but it would not have been the same without the incredible knowledge that Sergio shared with us. He made it really fun, even took us to see some of the sheep living in the archeological site!
Agrigento the crossroads of civilizations.

5.00This is a guided tour of the Temple of Juno (or Athena) and the surrounding grounds and temples. The guide gives a lively dissertation on the history of the many cities and their citizens who inhabited this location over time ("stacked one on the other"). The walk is over uneven terrain with a walk down hill mostly and a 4€ shuttle to the starting point. My wife walks with a cane and was able to complete the tour without straggling behind. I believe most visitors will have few, if any, issues traversing the landscape.
