Itinerary

Your tour begins at the Valley of the Temples entrance

Begin at the main entrance near the Temple of Juno, where your pre-delivered ticket skips the long general admission ticket lines. Open the multi language audio guide on your phone and set off into Sicily's vast archaeological park.

Ascend to the hilltop Temple of Juno

Following the ridge, to reach the Temple of Juno at the park's eastern edge. Listen as the audio guide explains how this fifth-century BC shrine still bears scorch marks from the Carthaginian sack of 406 BC.

Gaze upon the Temple of Concordia

Next, stand before the Temple of Concordia, one of the best-preserved Greek temples in the world. Your audio narration reveals how it owes its survival to its sixth-century conversion into a Christian church.

Wander the fallen Temple of Olympian Zeus

Then wander the ruins of the Temple of Olympian Zeus, once among the largest Doric temples ever built. The audio guide describes the giant Telamons, stone figures of Atlas that braced its colossal temple walls.

Roam the ancient agora and necropolis

Beyond the temples, follow paths past the ancient agora, early Christian necropolis, and the Sanctuary of the Chthonic Deities. These quieter ruins reveal how Akragas thrived as one of the richest Greek cities of its age.

Drink in the panoramic viewpoints

Throughout the park, stop at scenic overlooks framing temples against olive groves, almond trees, and the distant sea. These viewpoints offer the best photo angles, especially in golden morning or late-afternoon light.

Your tour ends at the Valley of the Temples entrance

Finally, make your way back toward the main entrance whenever you're ready, since the visit moves at your own pace. Close the audio guide and step out with a camera roll full of ancient discoveries.

FAQs

Where to meet?

Is this tour family friendly?

Yes, families are welcome and there's no age limit. Kids can join, and infants are included in the booking options. Keep in mind it's a large outdoor archaeological park with a long uphill walk and uneven ground, so bring water and sun protection for younger travelers.

What if I have concerns about my mobility on this tour?

This site is officially wheelchair accessible, but it involves a roughly 2.5 km (1.5 mile) uphill walk over uneven ancient ground. An optional paid shuttle and golf-cart service can carry you uphill and between the temples. If you have mobility concerns, we'd recommend using the shuttle.

How much walking is involved?

This is an active outdoor visit. It's about a 2.5 km (1.5 mile) uphill walk from the entrance to the temples, then more walking along the ridge between sites. Comfortable shoes are essential, and a paid shuttle is available if you'd rather skip the climb.

Do I need my own headphones?

Yes. The audio guide runs on your own smartphone, so bring a fully charged phone and your own headphones, since earphones aren't included. Download the guide before you arrive for the smoothest start.

What languages is the audio guide available in?

The digital guide is multilanguage, with commentary in English, Spanish, French, German, and Italian. Just choose your language in the app before you begin.

Is lunch or food included?

Food and drink aren't included. There are limited options near the site, so it's a good idea to bring water and a snack, especially during the hot Sicilian summer months.
