A very good historical... - A very good historical tour of the temples and the surroundings and the town of Agrigento. Of course the only drawback was the heat. But the tour operator can’t do much about that. It would’ve been good to have a little stop in the middle of the tour for everyone to get water or go to a café and get some drink and refreshment before continuing on.

A 10 for Alessio - We made the Valley of the Temples with Alessio and we loved it as a guide, it explains very well the history of the Valley of the Temples and its curiosities.

Walking tour of the Valley of Temples - Sara was a knowledgeable guide. She answered all my questions and seemed to really know her stuff. It would have been helpful to know the guide’s name ahead of time to facilitate meeting up. The site itself was a stunning example of antiquity with beautiful views from up high to the sea.

Great site to visit for historical buffs - The site was very interesting with one well preserved temple. Our tour guide had to explain in both English and Italian as it was a mixed group. We had booked an 11am tour. Our guide was great in finding shady spots to explain details about each section visited as it is very hot. Only issue- would have enjoyed more insight into the daily life and activities of the time. Also, some guidance of where else we could/ should visit at the site. I would book an earlier tour or late afternoon.

Must see experience but try to find a group that all speaks the same language. - It was a bit too large a group (30) plus the tour guide repeated everything in Italian after the English which made it go V e r y S l o w. The tour guide knew her stuff. It was interesting but it would have been much better if it was only English speaking.

A little disappointing - Booked an English speaking tour but there was a small group with us that only spoke Italian so she had to give the speech to us then we had to wait 10-15 minutes before we could move on to the next place

No customer service - The company did not provide any meeting instructions and we could not find our group. Made numerous attempts to the guide and company with no results. Ended up just doing it solo. Based on the fact that we had done our due diligence it attempting to contact them we made a request for refund through Viator who was no help at all and denied the request. Be aware that you will not be able to contact the tour company if any issues arise

Poor service and organisation - Terrible service. Terrible organisation. Tour guide left without us and did not call to check where we are. We were there waiting as we were told by staff that need to stand in line. We had to repurchase tickets. Would not recommend using Via Tour.
