Itinerary
Day 1
Start in Palermo with hotel pick-up, drive to Agrigento for a 2-hour independent visit of the Valley of the Temples, then return to Palermo and hotel drop-off.
Pick-up at Palermo accommodation
Driver meets you at your hotel lobby in Palermo. After boarding there is an approximately 2-hour drive to Agrigento (Valley of the Temples). This activity includes time for boarding and the transfer to the archaeological park.
Tips from local experts:
- Be in your hotel lobby at 08:30; if your hotel is inside Palermo's historic centre, note some streets are narrow so the driver may ask you to meet in the main lobby or at the hotel entrance.
- Keep a small day bag, essential medication, and any mobility aids easily accessible during boarding and the transfer.
- Use your hotel restroom before departure; the transfer includes continuous driving stretches of about 2 hours.
Valley of the Temples
Independent visit of the Parco Archeologico Valle dei Templi in Agrigento. The suggested on-site walking time is approximately two hours covering the main temples (Temple of Hera, Concordia, Hercules and Zeus). Admission fees are not included and can be paid at the park entrance. You may hire a licensed local guide at the site if you wish.
Tips from local experts:
- The archaeological park terrain is uneven with some gravel paths and limited shade; wear sturdy, supportive shoes and bring sun protection and water.
- Admission is purchased at the Parco Archeologico Valle dei Templi ticket office near the main entrance (admission fees are not included in the tour).
- Public restrooms are located near the main entrance area; plan restroom and seating breaks during the two-hour visit if mobility or comfort is a consideration.
Back to Palermo
Return drive to Palermo with hotel drop-off at the end of the tour. The transfer includes driving time and a short drop-off window at your hotel in Palermo.
Tips from local experts:
- The return transfer to Palermo takes roughly two hours; inform the driver in advance if you need an intermediate comfort stop before departure.
- Palermo city centre has restricted vehicle access on some streets; expect a short walk from the drop-off point to hotels with entrances on narrow lanes.
- If you need assistance with luggage or a mobility ramp at drop-off, notify the driver when boarding so they can prepare.
