“Tickets helps us skip the long queues and the audio guide was helpful.”
Visit Agrigento’s UNESCO-listed Valley of the Temples on your own, using a mobile ticket and optional audio guide in eight languages. Walk from Hera through ancient fortifications, Greek temples, Christian tombs, and the huge Olympieion. Allow two to three hours, bring headphones, and note that Kolymbethra Gardens costs extra.
“la visite est parfaite. a faire au coucher du soleil magnifique. cependant l audioguide n est pas top. 1es explication par temple ne dure qu une minute du mal a trouver la position exacte sur le site. et comme l appli est sur le téléphone, quand on prend des photo il faut se remettre sur l appli.... donc je recommande cette visite bien sûr mais sans l audioguide un manuel a vendre a l entrée est presque mieux”
Use the ITGUIDES app to explore Agrigento’s Valley of the Temples at your own pace. The $4.70 audio guide includes an introduction and 11 geolocated descriptions in English, Italian, French, Spanish, or German, with photos and illustrations. Entry is separate.
“Tried to call a taxi. None at the taxi stand. Dialling a taxi wanted too much information - not prepared to give so… didn’t make it. paid for but did not enjoy.”
Pick a coast, a volcano or a kitchen.
