Perfect day trip from Palermo - The valley of the temples is not to be missed – the ruins are beautiful, the history is fascinating – our guide Anna did a wonderful job.— the park itself is beautiful and green and open, and you feel like you are out in nature. Scala dei Turchi was less impressive – perhaps in part because we chose not to climb down the stairs and saw it from above. One of the best parts of our day was getting to know our wonderful driver Luca (ask for him if you can!)

A lovely and informative day! - This was a lovely day with our fabulous driver, Fabrizio. He was kind, considerate, welcoming, and informative! We have made a friend! Our tour guide at the temples, Claudio, was a treat! He brought the history alive for us. We had a lovely lunch at the water’s edge and a safe and comfortable ride to and from. We highly recommend this private tour. It is pricy, but worth it.

All very nice, lots of monument and little cleaning - Monumentally it is a past the heritage of Sicily in general and its magnificent beaches of crystal clear waters. How I advise not to go in summer is very hot and humid. And as an advice to Sicilians to clean up the cities a bit, there is something called a broom 🧹
