Day 7: April 24, 2025
Agrigento. Valley of the Temples.
We started the day with a tour of the archeological site of Agrigento, the Valley of the Temples. The beautiful natural setting full of almond, olive and orange trees high on the hill, and the 7 ancient Greek temples dating back to the 5th century BC did not disappoint! Our guide was Claudio.
Next we drove to the beach near Agrigento in a coastal village called San Leone for a big lunch and some of us did swim in the Mediterranean Sea. Yay! Weather is wonderful.
Our quaint hotel is right on the beach and some of us went to swim here too, while others sat on our balconies and enjoyed the views of the sand and the sea.... ahhh
