Unveil Valley of the Temples | Rocco Forte Private Villas

Unveil the Valley of the Temples

Experience the ethereal magic of the Valley of the Temples, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The temples rise from a hilltop, anchored by the Greeks on solid bedrock to support these colossal houses for their gods. The Temple of Concordia, one of the best-preserved Doric temples outside of Greece, stands perfectly aligned with the sun’s path - a reflection of the Greeks’ deep connection to the divine and the natural world. As the sun sets, these ancient structures come alive, bathed in the golden light of dusk.

Valley of The Temple Private Walking Tour

Walking Tour and Lunch with the Shepherd

Imagine gods and heroes as you explore Agrigento's timeless temples whose stories will be shared by your private guide. Wander through some of the finest Greek ruins in the world, including the Valle dei Templi, and the oldest temple, Tempio di Ercole, dating back to the 6th century BC. Follow the smoke curling from Rosa & Carmelo's shepherd house to knead your own dough in their wood-fired oven, and gather around a table laden with farm-fresh ricotta.

Uncover ancient secrets with a guided tour of Agrigento's Valley of the Temples, a World Heritage Site whose history is ensconced in majestic Greek ruins bathed in golden sunlight.

Walking Tour with Sicanian Wooden oven Famiata

Legends of Greek gods linger amidst Agrigento's majestic temples. Your guide will share the incredible timeline of the Temple of Zeus, dismantled over the centuries by builders coveting its storied stones, and the Temple of Hera. End your tour at Fontes Episcopi, where you’ll learn the art of Sicilian "Famiata" in a private wood oven class. Flames crackling and filling the air with warmth,, create "cuddirunedda” - savoury flatbreads bursting with local flavour. Laughter, conversation, and the promise of a delicious feast - this is more than a history lesson, it’s a sensory adventure of true Sicilian spirit.
