Top Agrigento Walking Tours

Lots...lots...of walking. But well worth it if you can handle two-and-a-half hours on foot in intense summer-ish heat as we did. Stunning temples and fascinating history.

Skipper Francesco was happy, friendly and very accommodating! He explained the sites in 2 languages and made the 3.5 hour boat ride a joy! Swimming in the Mediterranean was a dream come true!

Liz was a fantastic guide, very knowledgeable and fun! The temples were very cool to see, and the walking routes were easy.

Our guide Carmelida was great. Very knowledgeable and skilled. There was a small bit of confusion about the meeting point, due to road construction delays, but it was quickly resolved. Carmelida provided excellent information clearly explained and was friendly and helpful. Our only reservation was with the cost. This is no reflection on Carmelida who earned whatever portion came to her, many times over. There seem to be several levels of tour management between the purchaser and the final product, which likely accounts for the high price.

This was great to have at the Valley of the Temples. It was just enough information given clearly and without getting too much into the weeds.

The guide is fine on the cultural side. In the restaurants part it is not updated. Check before you go because some only open at night and there are some that no longer open.

What a highlight for our trip. The cooking class was wonderful. Annalisa is a modern, intelligent, amusing and interesting Sicilian woman. You get the best cooking experience, but you also get the best experience in being with a genuine Sicilian woman who makes you feel welcome in her home. Our time together will not be forgotten.

At 10 am we were welcomed by Annalisa, our heart-warming hostess for the next few hours, we had booked a Sicilian cooking workshop with her. In a homely environment, she has adapted her interior to the time when her “nonna” cooked, so back in time, great.Under the guidance of Annalisa, we made delicious pasta sauce, pasta, a stuffed fish (including raisins, pine nuts, garlic) and a delicious almond nougat.After the fun and educational cooking workshop, we enjoyed a delicious meal with the results of our cooking skills while enjoying a delicious wine and Annalisa's stories.This activity, which takes about 4 hours, is an absolute recommendation for travelers who have Favare within traveling distance, an unforgettable experience of Italian cuisine.

Very interesting tour inside the valley catacombs. Paola was an excellent guide, engaging and professional.

Elisabeth was an INCREDIBLE guide! In addition to giving a detailed explanation, she did it in a fun and enjoyable way. Both the visit and she were wonderful! Grazie mille!

Seeing the Valley all the temples will take you back in time to 500 BC! The temples mark the passage of time and of civilizations who conquered this area, but left behind such magnificent structures, bigger than the Greek Parthenon! Our tour guide was fantastic, extremely knowledgeable, spoke English well, and never rushed us through the sites. We saw the catacombs, he explained to us how the Ancient Greeks transported the heavy boulders up to the highest peak and he came even prepared with a book that showed us what the temples must’ve look like at the height of their splendor. Wow! We highly recommend this tour!

Valley of the Temples was a remarkable and impressive historical sight and going with a guide made it even more interesting. Our guide (sorry, I do not remember her name) was wonderful. The depth of her knowledge gave us a better understanding of the temples: the times back then, the structures, the appearances/sizes and the differences between them. She also, shared her great knowledge on the various plants in the area. Thank you for the beautiful day!

Annalisa was a great tour guide and the cooking class was a blast! Made our own pasta and tiramisu which we ate for lunch. A little wine to go along with everything, livened the party.

Our cooking class with Annalisa exceeded our expectations! Annalisa is such a lovely person and a superb teacher and cook. She greeted us with her homemade limoncello in her beautiful home, and made us feel extremely comfortable. The menu was perfecto! We learned how to make pasta the healthy Sicilian way using only semolina wheat, finished with local fava beans that we peeled and cooked with onion, then mixed with sheep’s ricotta cheese. And if that was not enough, we also made stuffed calamari! Tremendous! It is Easter week so for dessert we learned how to make the traditional pascal lamb. So much fun to eat our meal with Annalisa and the local wine she serves with the meal went perfectly. We highly recommend this 5 star experience!!!

Enza was an amazing tour guide, this tour is so worth it! We learnt so much not just about the temples/archeological site but about local culture as well- we appreciated seeing the pistachio and almond trees and more!

Amazing tour. Enza was such a knowledgable and friendly guide: we learned so much not just about the valley of the temples but lots about local history and facts, we loved how Enza pointed out the almond and pistachio trees and told us about the local plants as well as so much about ancient times. Incredible value for money!
