Dit kun je verwachten

De Vallei van de Tempels is een van de meest suggestieve plekken van de Griekse wereld en een van de belangrijkste complexen buiten Griekenland. Je bezoekt de tempels die op de hoge bergkam met uitzicht op de zee staan, bewandelt de Heilige Weg en ontdekt de pracht van de Concordia-tempel, die in de 6e eeuw werd omgebouwd tot een christelijke kerk en daardoor gespaard bleef van veel van de verwoestingen die de plek door de eeuwen heen hebben aangetast. Je loopt tussen de ruïnes van de Tempel van Zeus, de grootste tempel gebouwd door de Grieken, verwoest om de haven bij Porto Empedocle te bouwen.

De klif van Scala dei Turchi rijst op tussen twee fijne zandstranden, en om er te komen moet je langs de kust gaan en een klim beklimmen die lijkt op een grote natuurlijke kalkstenen trap. Scala dei Turchi heeft een golvende en onregelmatige vorm, met lijnen die niet ruw maar zoet en rond zijn. De naam komt van de eerdere aanvallen van Saracenen-piraten, door de lokale bevolking gewoonlijk "Turchi" (Turks) genoemd. Deze piraten vonden deze plek in feite als een veiligere landingsplaats voor hun schepen, waardoor ze werden gered van de slaande Afrikaanse winden. vergeleken met de rest van de zuidelijke kustlijn.

Full-day Valley of the Temples and Scala dei Turchi tour

Two of Sicily's highlights are in the spotlight on this full-day tour. You'll visit the UNESCO World Heritage Site, Valley of the Temples, an archaeological site that's loaded with what's left of seven 2,500-year-old shrines, including the Temple of Concordia – it's ranked as one of the best-preserved Greek temples in the world. Afterwards, you'll head to one of the top ten most unique coastlines as named by TripAdvisor – Scala dei Turchi. Giuseppa, one of our expert local guides, says “the Valley of the Temples is landscaped with lots of flowering almond trees, another staple of Sicily, that will really add something extra to the photos you take here.”First up is one of the largest archaeological sites in the world, the immense Valley of the Temples in Agrigento. It packs in the remains of seven temples perched on a high ridge, all of which you'll see, including the ruins of the Temple of Zeus and Concordia Temple at the end of the Sacred Way. The temples here are over 2,500 years old, so there are a lot of pages in the history books to uncover. You'll be given headphones to hear your guide, too, so you won't miss any details.Afterwards, you'll make your way to the bright white Scala dei Turchi, a natural limestone staircase that is dug into the cliffs and weaves its way down to the sea. You'll have some time to unwind and go for a swim before heading back to the hotel.

Mount Etna Sunset Tour with Sicilian Dinner
Excursies & Dagtrips

Mount Etna Sunset Tour with Sicilian Dinner

Watching the sky light up with shades of orange and then burn out into darkness while standing atop a volcano is a special sensation. This drama-rich tour takes you to Mount Etna – a must-visit when in Sicily. You'll head to an altitude of almost 3,000 metres to catch the sunset and then relax over a traditional meal to round off your adventure. Ciccio, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘The volcano's name derives from the ancient Greek word “aitne”, meaning “I burn”. It's an appropriate name for Europe's most active volcano.' As part of a select group of no more than 25 guests, you'll go by minibus to Etna. As the terrain becomes rockier, we switch to a 4x4 vehicle. As we make our way to 2,900m above sea level – the highest point that's safely reachable – there'll be stops to take in the harsh, lunar landscape and the lava-smothered flanks of this towering mountain. Ciccio says, ‘You might wonder why so many people live on Etna's slopes. The answer is simple – volcanic soil is extremely fertile, and you'll see traditional crops like vines and citrus fruits, plus newcomers such as avocados and papaya growing here.'Make sure you're wearing comfortable walking shoes and warm layers – it gets cold at high altitude. After admiring the views from near the summit, an expert alpine guide will take you to a less exposed 2,500m, where you'll watch the sunset in a more comfortable location. Then on the way back, we'll stop at a chalet restaurant for a typical Sicilian dinner.
