Thoroughly enjoyable and informative. Our guide was very engaging and combined his love for Agrigento with a great sense of humor!
Your was really good. The guide was very professional in both knowledge and presentation.
Highly recommended
We learned so much from our guide. He was lively and informative and made the experience even better.
Informative. Great tour guide. We have used Viator for many years and have always been pleased with the expert tour guide and sites. This tour met up to our previous standards. The guide was informative and excited about telling us about the temples. She gave us much history about Sicily as well. She was great and answering questions that we had during the tour.
The Valley of the Temples was amazing! Our guide was very knowledgeable and engaging. Our main complaint is that the tour ended no where near an exit so we had to walk a considerable distance to take a taxi back to our car.
horrible too big of a group 20 people Tour guy just talked It was like a record recording. He did not allow for questions. It would’ve been easier to save our money and walk through ourselves. Also, the tour ended in a completely different place from where we started. No one knew where to go or how to get back it
Be prepared for a long walk with lots of detailed facts about the site. That was sometimes interesting, occasionally boring for me.
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!
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!
Great tour. Guide was very friendly and interested in group as well as providing the detail we wanted. Enjoyed the tour alot.
Truly incredible to see antiquities so close . Our guide really explained the history and stories surrounding the valley very well indeed . She told stories of current Sicilian traditions that had origins in the past .
Fabulous tour with Rosanna. 8 people total in our group, she had a lot of knowledge of the temples. Bring water and wear sneakers!
Very interesting and a great history lesson. The guide was very knowledgeable about all the temples and time frames and the ancient city
This was an interesting tour at a reasonable price. Our guide (didn’t get his name) was knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the history and the area. Two negatives:
1. The organisation is a bit chaotic. The meeting point is actually outside the ticket office (as you can’t get in without a ticket) and not by the temple. Also our guide was running about trying to find people, so it got a bit confusing as to what was happening.
2. We did this tour during the heatwave. It was still 40c at 5pm which was overwhelming. More than half the group abandoned the tour before the end. The guide tried to keep us in the shade as much as possible but a lot of the tour is walking in the heat so be warned!
Great time, tour guide was well educated and entertaining. Beautiful ruins and a top excursion of our family Sicily trip.
Our tour guide was excellent. He was very informative. It was extremely hot which made it difficult. However our tour guide made sure we were very hydrated.
Our guided tour was very informative and worth having someone explain the history of the area. It was a relaxing stroll, the view of the city and the countryside were amazing. We were able to get very close to the temples. It is worth doing it in the late afternoon as the sun was setting and the temples were nicely illuminated for fabulous pictures. After the tour, you are able to wonder on your own to enjoy the experience more.
Interesting place to visit. It was hot! There was a small child in our group and a dog. The child was struggling and distracting. Our tour guide Rosanna was terrific.
Our tour guide Luigi was fantastic! Very interactive and knowledgeable. A late afternoon tour is the only way to see this site as it was quite hot. A must see in Agrigento
It was a very informative and interestin. Rino, the guide, was funny and engaging. Well worth the time and expense.
The guide, Mario, was very good, but please prepare for a lot of walking and bring plenty of water. The route for the tour is not a loop, so participants must either walk back to the gate on their own (uphill) or take an inexpensive 5 E shuttle. Sometimes the terrain can be rocky.
Not exclusive at all, we were closed to 20 people! The guide was good but no map was given, the audio was not very clear. Not what you expected from an exclusive tour!
Recommend the evening tour, it is a very long walking tour. But worth it. Definitely be prepared to walk and be comfortable in the heat.
Fantastic guides matter Ours had a great knowledge of Greek antiquity and culture. Made a huge difference
The park is amazing and it is enjoyable in the day or at night. Tour was good, the tour ended 35 min early.
Was hard to understand the tour guide for the English tour. At the end, I just stopped listening, and read the plaques.
Enza is very experienced and well- researched guide. She knows her stuff. Tour was well-paced and small.
Our tour guide Annalisa is what made our tour fantastic. She explains every important detail and brings the Greek history to life.
This is an excellent tour. Our guide was very knowledgeable. A must do on Agrigento. The area is very big so use comfortable shoes
