What to expect

08h30am Meet our driver escort . Our morning will be dedicated to the visit of Agrigento a UNESCO World Heritage site since 1998 and one of the most symbolic remains of classical Greek civilization. Accompanied by a guide, you will experience the same sensations as they did, admiring the Temple of Juno and the grandiose Temple of Corcord, which will amaze you for its sheer size, harmonious architecture and perfect state of preservation.

Picnic lunch at the Kolymbetra park, an agricultural jewel returned to light after decades of abandon. This Garden has fruit trees from every part of the world and some of the trees are over 1000 years old! Then surrounded by pomegranate, pistachio, orange and lemon trees and under the Mediterranean sun you will enjoy a typical Sicilian lunch served to you outdoors, complete with local fruit, cheese and wine. This is sure one of the highlights of your trip. 

And now departure for another wonder of the world, called Scala dei Turchi ( stairs of the Turks) . it’s a rocky cliff overhanging the sea , with a sandy beach in the city of Realmonte , near porto Empedocle . It’s considered one of the most beautiful places of the world , an area to admire the Mediterranean Sea and breathtaking sunsets
