Travelers step into the ancient world on this private guided visit to the UNESCO-listed Valley of the Temples, just outside Agrigento. Once the site of Akragas, one of the great cities of Magna Graecia, this remarkable archaeological park preserves some of Sicily’s most celebrated Greek ruins. Guests meet their private English-speaking guide at their hotel and travel by private vehicle to the site for a walking tour through the ancient city.
Along the way, they discover extraordinary examples of Doric architecture, including the Temple of Concordia, one of the best-preserved Greek temples in the world. The guide brings its history to life, from its origins in the 5th century BC to its later conversion into a Christian Basilica. Travelers also visit the Temple of Juno and the Temple of Hercules, while gaining insight into the monuments, beliefs, and daily life of ancient Akragas.
