About this tour
Spend a full day exploring Sicily's most celebrated ancient site and one of the Mediterranean's most striking beaches. This private tour takes you through the sprawling Valley of the Temples at Agrigento, where Greek ruins dot a vast archaeological park, then down to Scala dei Turchi—a dramatic white limestone cliff face that tumbles directly onto the sand. Eight to nine hours allows you to wander both locations at your own pace, moving between Hellenic history and natural theatre in a single journey.
Highlights
- Greek temples spanning centuries of Sicily's classical past
- Scala dei Turchi: white-chalk cliffs plunging to the shoreline
- Swimming and sunbathing between sightseeing
- Private vehicle with air conditioning throughout
- Skip the crowds with flexible timing
- Bottled water provided in the car
What to expect
You'll start in the Valley of the Temples, a vast open-air museum of ancient Greek architecture. Walking is required to see multiple temples spread across the site—bring comfortable shoes and sun protection. The valley itself is unshaded and can be hot. Later, you'll drive to Scala dei Turchi, where a short walk leads to the beach. The white cliffs are photogenic but steep; if you swim, watch for currents. The whole day moves between archaeological contemplation and seaside breaks. Your driver handles transport; you control the pace.
Good to know
Valley of the Temples entrance (€15 per person) is separate. Moderate fitness needed for walking the archaeological site and cliff descent. Pickups beyond 50 km from Catania incur a €120 surcharge. Bring swimwear, sunscreen and a hat. Infants must sit on an adult's lap.
