Valley of the Temples: Guided Tour

It's not actually in a valley, believe it or not. It's on a ridge. But don't let that minor detail put you off; the temples at Agrigento are a sight to behold, and the ridge itself is quite the looker! Avoid the long queues – especially in the summer months – with a guided tour and fast-track access to this wonder of antiquity.

This visit suitable for everyone, adults and children, and allows you to visit the entire archaeological site. At the end of the visit, you can stay and explore and photograph all the corners of the valley.

A UNESCO World Heritage site and the largest archaeological site in the world, the sun-worn ruins in the Valley of the Temples revive the lost imagery of long-collapsed Greek and Byzantine empires.

With the Mediterranean Sea splashing against the shores, explore the remains of what was once a thriving society as you move from temple to temple, past fallen statues, an 800-year-old olive tree, and down the beautiful 'Via Sacra'.

The remains are in varying conditions and the centuries have certainly taken their toll in places, but whether you're drawn to the stunningly preserved Concordia Temple or the weather-beaten Temple of Olympian Zeus, you're sure to be affected by these monumental structures.
