A long but enjoyable day. We saw some sites that tour books do not mention and got a local perspective. Great day and great conversation about Sicilian sites, culture, food, and wine.

The Valley of the Temples is an archaeological park in Sicily characterized by an exceptional state of conservation and a series of important Doric temples from the Hellenic period. It corresponds to the ancient Akragas, a monumental original nucleus of the city of Agrigento. Since 2000 it has been a regional archaeological park.
Beautiful Roman villa, with its mosaics depicting scenes from the Roman period from hunting women in bikinis

These are just two of the most spectacular historical sites in Sicily. The temples in the Agrigento Valley easily compare to those I have seen in Greece. Our driver Alessandro dropped us off at the top of the valley allowing us a downhill walk through the park, and picked us up at the bottom. At the Villa Romana del Casale, the mosaics are beyond comparison to even those that are in the British Museum. Every room and hall was spectacularly ornamented. The women athlete room and the collection of the animals hall were the highlights. Our driver Alessandro couldn’t be better. He was first and foremost a safe smooth driver getting us through the cities, highways and back roads brilliantly. He was also friendly and informative all along the way with information about what we were about to see, but also the towns we went through and Italy in general.
Excellent tour! Alessandro made what started out as a challenging trip with lost luggage into a truly amazing second day in Sicily. He was very informative and pointed us to amazing restaurants and things to do. I highly recommend him and loved his private tour. We stopped for the best orange I have ever eaten.
We had a perfect day doing this tour! Our driver was very knowledgeable, friendly and a good driver so we felt safe. For us, the Villa Romana del Casale was the highlight of the tour! We had enough time to watch everything. We saw many different landscapes of Sicily during the tour and they are all beautiful :-) We can highly recommend it!
The Tour to Agrigento and the Villa Romana del Casale went as planned and it was a good day as we were able to talk about the local scene and ask questions as required. We were also given plenty of time to visit the two locations on our own. I would recommend this tour.
Just WOW! Such an amazing day! The sites were phenomenal and the weather was perfect. Alessandro was so informative and attentive and treated us like royalty. Such a fantastic day!!
Both site were amazing , we wish we could stay longer to enjoy more , especially Villa Romana , there are so many pictures to see
Very excellent service. On time picking up at hotel. Warmly talking on Sicily. Detail introduction the sites visited.
We booked this to avoid the hassle of a crowd in the bus/van and during the tour. This was ABSOLUTELY worth the money. Alessandro was clearly knowledgeable of the history of all the sites and how to tour each place. He was friendly and welcoming. He of course was not allowed to guide inside the sites, but his directions were most useful for an efficient and comprehensive tour. We never felt rushed. Even when there was an unexpected road closure, he did not shorten our time at each location. I would highly recommend this tour for anyone interested in having a detailed look at these two important archeological sites.
