Among the highlights of the tour is the Temple of Concordia, renowned for its remarkable preservation, captivating all who witness its grandeur.
Valley of the Temples Private Tour
We will meet at your convenience at the Chiosca della Limonata to commence our private exploration of Agrigento, known in ancient times as Agracante.
This two-hour guided experience will take you through the magnificent Valley of the Temples, regarded as a vital site in Magna Graecia, often likened to Athens' Acropolis. The impressive Doric temples of this area were designated a World Heritage Site in 1998 due to their exceptional archaeological value.
Your adventure will begin with a stunning view of the Mediterranean Sea from the Temple of Juno. We will then stroll along the Via Sacra, immersing ourselves in the ancient city’s history as described by Virgil in his epic, The Aeneid. Our path leads to the almost intact colonnade of the Temple of Concordia, where you’ll delve into the rich history of this architectural masterpiece.
Continuing our exploration, we will encounter a paleochristian necropolis, facilitating a discussion about the varied historical periods this site has experienced. Additionally, we will view the Temples of Heracles and Zeus while uncovering the fascinating mythological stories surrounding Agracante.
The tour will conclude two hours after our start at the majestic Temple of Zeus.
3-hour Tour
For those seeking an extended experience, you can also visit the enigmatic Temple of Castor and Pollux and explore the Kolymbetra Garden, featuring delightful orange and lemon trees typical of Sicilian landscapes.
After a comprehensive three-hour journey through the Valley of the Temples, we will wrap up our private tour at the picturesque Kolymbetra Garden.
