Additional Information

The excursion enables sightseers to absorb the enchanting aura that encompasses the Valley as it transitions from daylight to twilight. Firstly, the persisting warm glow of the descending sun that offers the chance to gaze at the temples in their spatial context and their seamless incorporation into the scenery. Secondly, the sunset, occurring in the presence of the Temple of Concord, modifies the hue of the sandstone, thereby altering our aesthetic impression of the monument. Lastly, the pitch-black night and the illumination from the headlights erase the peripheral environment and bring out their sheer universal value as magnificent creations, testament to the cleverness of our prehistoric forebears.

Very exciting - My husband and I took the tour of the Valley of the Temples at 7.30 pm with the guide Calogero. Perfect time because you start with light, witness the sunset and finally see the illuminated temples: really exciting!!!! Then the temperature is perfect, while during the day it must be very very hot because the path is all under the sun. Inside there is a bar with sandwiches and ice cream. Calogero great guide, I contacted him directly through wathsapp and he responded immediately. Consiglio a tutti di fare questa esperienza!

The colors of the sunset - Ilaria, our Guide, made us appreciate the wonder of the temples, with clear and engaging explanations, despite the temperatures! The colors with the setting sun are priceless.

Priceless heritage - Beautiful experience, avoid the hottest summer hours and prefer the evening hours, where temperatures are more tolerable, you can admire the sunset and the play of lights and colors among the ancient ruins!

Valley of the Temples with Calogero - Wonderful visit not only for the monumental show but above all for our guide Calogero who conveyed to us all the love for the history of his native land. Highly recommended and if you can, ask to go with him, I'm convinced it makes the difference...

Lovely site - The visit was very beautiful, made even more interesting and fun by the excellent guide Professor Claudio. Passionate and extremely learned, he accompanied us, entertained us and made us fall in love with the place with his descriptions and his stories... A negative note is the somewhat chaotic organization, made even more chaotic by the rain that accompanied us at the beginning. A warning for everyone DO NOT BOOK WITH VIATOR, online tour operators, they are non-existent, and I would even say deceptive, they make you pay for a guided tour without highlighting that access tickets are not included. They give you a phone number that no one answers. You try to write via the web as indicated in the email and no one replies... VERY BAD, I don't recommend, I don't recommend, choose carefully who to give your money to.

The visit was very impressive - With what you paid they could offer a service with earphones to avoid always going hand to hand with the Guide avoiding not hearing!
