What To Expect

Valle dei Templi

First stop of the tour: The Valley of the Temples, in Agrigento. Unesco heritage, the Valley of the Temples houses a series of Doric Temples from the Hellenic period still in an exceptional state of conservation. Entering the archaeological site you will have the impression of having gone back in time and it is easy to imagine the beauty and refinement of the Hellenic era. Among the park's monuments: the temple of Zeus, the most imposing of all; the temple of Heracles, the oldest; the temple of Concordia, the best preserved Doric sanctuary in the world because it was converted into a Christian sanctuary; the temple of Juno and, finally, the Temple of Dioscuri, symbol of the city of Agrigento. The area of the Agorà from the Greco-Roman age, the mosaic floors, the ancient aqueducts in the Hellenic Roman residential areas and the early Christian basilicas are also beautiful.

    Promised guide was a no show. Driver did not speak English. No promised admission tickets to Valley of temples. We had to buy our own. This was not a tour. It was a drive in an uncomfortable mini van with air conditioning that only somewhat worked. Very disappointing

    The temple ruins were remarkable, but even more spectacular was the Piazza Armerina! The mosaic tiles were incredible. it’s one thing to see renditions of palaces in Hollywood films, but to actually stand looking at the remnants is a unique experience. It’s a bit of a long ride from Palermo but we’ll worth it.
