Full description
Embark on an extraordinary adventure starting from your accommodation in Palermo. Our experienced driver will greet you and begin the scenic journey towards Piazza Armerina, approximately 2.5 hours away. Prepare to be mesmerized as you explore the remarkable UNESCO-listed Roman Villa of Casale. Built in the 4th century AD and later rediscovered in the 20th century, this opulent villa boasts an expansive 3,500 square meters of floor mosaics, showcasing the luxurious lifestyle of the Roman elite (admission fee not included).
After enjoying an independent lunch, we continue our expedition with a 2-hour drive to the legendary Valley of the Temples in Agrigento (admission fee not included). This awe-inspiring archaeological site has held UNESCO World Heritage status since 1997. Explore independently as you encounter iconic structures such as the Temple of Hera, the Temple of Concordia, the Temple of Hercules, and the Temple of Zeus. Legend suggests that Agrigento was founded by Daedalus and Icarus, but historical records trace its origins back to 582 B.C., when Rhodian-Cretan colonists established the city of Akragas, named after the nearby river.
Conclude the day by returning to Palermo, cherishing the memories of these captivating historical sites.
