Excursion to Valley of the Temples and Piazza Armerina from Palermo

Leave Palermo behind and embark on a journey through the wild heart of Sicily, travelling back in time to explore some of the Mediterranean's most splendid civilisations. As you head towards the island's southern coast, watch as the landscape transforms before your eyes.

Your first stop is the legendary Valley of the Temples in Agrigento. Here, a local guide will lead you on a fascinating tour along the Sacred Way. Amidst extraordinary UNESCO World Heritage monuments—where towering Doric columns contrast against the deep blue sky—you'll have the chance to admire iconic sites such as the Temple of Concord. Immerse yourself in the ambience of ancient Greece, and capture unforgettable images in a place where time seems to stand still.

Leaving the golden stones of Agrigento behind, the tour continues inland through the verdant hills surrounding Piazza Armerina. Here, you'll uncover the Villa Romana del Casale with a local guide, an imperial residence boasting the largest and most intricate collection of Roman mosaics known to exist. You'll have plenty of time to explore the adorned rooms at your own pace, marvelling at the vivid details of mosaics that depict myths, hunting scenes, and daily life during the Roman Empire.

This tour is a fantastic option for travellers seeking both the convenience of modern transportation and total independence—it offers you the flexibility to manage your visits and breaks at your leisure before unwinding on the drive back to Palermo
