Thanks for the very informative tour. Can recommend it 100%. The tour guide gave us am incredible insight into the mafia past of corleone.
Achim Hoop — Google review
This was the most disappointing chapter of our whole Sicilian trip. The museum staff, namely Federico Blanda, was the rudest person we have ever encountered, giving us wrong information from the start in an insulting and disrespectful manner.
When we reached the museum after a 2 hour drive, we were told that the English tour had already started at 11.30am (which wasn't mentioned anywhere on their website). We asked whether we could pay for the next tour and wait, and they told us there would be another one at 1.30pm and that prepayment wasn't necessary, to just arrive on time.
When we did, no one was present. We waited and began calling the number on their website, and someone picked up saying we should just wait until someone showed up. 20 mins later Federico arrived and said there was to be no English tour, and that an Italian one would start at 2pm.
When we showed our dismay not only at what they were saying, but more importantly how they were talking to us, we were told by him that "he did not like our attitude" and that if we wanted to complain we should call the police... He screamed at us, told us he didn't care that we had waited 2 hours, that it was our problem, and that we should go back to where we came from.
I would advise any and all visitors to avoid this "museum" and it's incompetent staff. Not worth the hassle of being abused, intimidated and insulted.

I am giving 5 stars mostly because of the huge importance and the fascinating (and at moments chilling) story. The museum was well worth the slow drive in the tiny countryside roads. In my opinion, it is a must see in Sicily.
However, keep in mind the storytelling is 99% of the experience and the exhibits are mostly documents and pictures. I recommend reading/watching online so that you trully embrace the experience.
Unfortunately, the guide's English pronounciation was not good enough and that really impacted the storytelling. Please please fix that, I am also not a native speaker, so I simpatise with him, but there was a lot of room for improvement. I was lucky I had watched several documentaries and read a few articles so I was able to put the story together.
Also the tour should be at least 1 hour and should cover the complete story chronologically rather than just explaining pictures in random order.

This place is fantastic. It is an anti-mafia organization funded by the 5€ entrance fee. A must see if you are in Palermo. Excellent presentation on the history of the Mafia in Corleone and the impact it has on society.
Value for money is extremely high. I would visit it again.
Pasquale De Civita — Google review
Really enjoyed the tour; the guide was extremely knowledgeable and open to answering any questions. The website says that tours need to be booked in advance, however, we were able to enter with a tour just by walking in and asking when the next tour would be.

Corleone is a typical hillside Sicilian town with winding cobbled streets and all the usual facilities such as shops, town hall, churches etc. The people there welcomed the establishment of CIDMA because they wanted to end the stigma and stereotyping of their towns association with the mafia. In fact the film the Godfather wasn't even filmed there!
CIDMA is not your average tourist visit. This extraordinary experience is very thought provoking and deeply troubling in many ways, but we were so glad we went.
You have to be taken on a guided tour as the building is a bit of a maze and the guides are very passionate about the work there. The entry fee depends on how many people are in the party so it's worth going in a group. I could have included more pictures but that would detract from your visit.
The most important message they want to get across is that the more the activities of the mafia are known about and discussed the less power they can wield over ordinary people trying to live without fear and extortion.
Erica Cunningham — Google review
I went to Corleone just to visit this museum. My knowledge and romantic idea of Mafia were based only on Hollywood movies. I’ve learned that the truth was completely opposite and there wasn’t anything to romanticize about. It was a great and painful experience to hear the truth and stories of the real people about Mafia. I was shocked how cruel and fearful the life was for people around here.
If you are interested in the real history of Mafia this is the place to visit.

The Royal Palace and Bosco Ficuzza (Ficuzza Forest) is an extremely beautiful place, where art and nature integrates perfectly.
The area was born as a hunting reserve for Ferdinand III of Bourbon, in the nineteenth century and presents a great variety of environments.
The palace itself stands in front of central park of the small village part of Corleone Municipality and is dominated by the impressive, 3 km long, Rocca Busambra wall. As I like climbing, I had the chance to see the palace both from the ground and the top of Busambra (1613m). I also had the chance to witness a genuine Corleonese matrimonio (wedding), in front of the impressive building. I might be biased, but is one of the most romantic places I've seen!

Ficuzza is a splendid village in the woods near Corleone. At the Royal Hunting Lodge you will get to know the history before the unification of Italy and how rich the Kingdom of Sicily was.

Unique location in Sicily. More like what you would expect in Northern Italy. Visit on a sunny day and wear walking shoes so you can also do a bit of trekking.
Heraclea Minoa was a city in ancient Greece located on the southern coast of Sicily near the Halycus river's mouth, approximately 25 km to the west of Agrigentum. The town shares its name with its modern counterpart situated in Cattolica Eraclea comune, Italy.

(Translated by Google) Suggestive place in the Sicani Mountains, easy to reach even with children. Excellent for spending an alternative day at the seaside between nature and history.
The sanctuary doesn't take up much time, but you can walk along paths to fill the day.
I recommend eating in one of the various typical restaurants in the area and enjoying the tranquility and panorama that this area offers.

Posto suggestivo tra i Monti Sicani, facile da raggiungere anche con bambini. Ottimo per trascorre una giornata alternativa al mare tra natura e storia.

(Translated by Google) Really interesting experience, walking along those country roads and then arriving at the Hermitage.
Surrounded by greenery there is a small chapel made entirely of stone full of refreshments, behind it you can enter a small cave through narrow, low tunnels and then arrive in the cave where a splendid marble statue depicting Santa Rosalia rests. It is possible to walk along paths, one of which in particular leads to the large oak tree, and from there a fantastic panorama where the whole of nature surrounds you.
Easy to get to, the area is equipped with toilets, a bar and a small souvenir shop.
(Original)
Esperienza davvero interessante, percorrere quelle stradine di campagna per poi arrivare all all'Eremo.
Immerso nel verde si erige una piccola cappella tutta in pietra piena di rinfreschi, alle spalle si può entrare all interno di una piccola grotta da cunicoli stretti e bassi per poi arrivare nella grotta dove riposa una splendida statua in marmo che raffigura la Santa Rosalia. E possibile percorrere dei sentieri di cui uno in particolare porta alla grande quercia, e da li un panorama fantastico dove l intera natura ti circonda.
Facile da arrivare, l area è attrezzata da servizi igienici, un bar e un piccolo negozietto di Souvenire.

(Translated by Google) I visited the hermitage many years ago and I have always had splendid memories. After a decade I wanted to return with my beautiful family and I have always found it exciting. Once you have parked the car, take a short and pleasant walk downhill and reach the hermitage. In my opinion the cave is splendid. But be careful not to underestimate it. It is NOT suitable for everyone. Even though the stretch is short, I don't recommend it for those with small children. Absolutely not recommended for those who suffer from claustrophobia. It is not a walk but a place of worship. Everything well preserved and cared for. Compliments
(Original)
Ho visitato l'eremo tanti anni fa ed ho mantenuto sempre uno splendido ricordo. A distanza di un decennio sono voluto ritornare con la mia bella famiglia e l'ho trovato sempre emozionante. Parcheggiata l'auto si percorre una breve e piacevole passeggiata in discesa e si giunge all'eremo. La grotta a mio avviso è splendida. Attenzione però a non sottovalutarla. NON è adatta a tutti. Anche se il tratto è breve, non lo consiglio a chi ha bambini piccoli. Sconsigliato assolutamente a chi soffre di claustrofobia. Non è una passeggiata ma un luogo di culto. Tutto ben conservato e curato. Complimenti

(Translated by Google) The Hermitage of Santa Rosalia is a place rich in spirituality. A combination of art, nature and religious spirit. After a path among trees and forest smells you reach the Hermitage where it is possible to visit some rooms inhabited in the past by hermits. Furthermore, other rooms host very interesting contemporary art exhibitions.
The small church and the cave are part of the visit. The access to the cave is small but those who pass through it allow themselves a journey to the depths of their soul.
(Original)
L’Eremo di Santa Rosalia è un luogo ricco di spiritualità. Un connubio di arte, natura e spirito religioso. Dopo un percorso tra alberi e odori di bosco si giunge all’Eremo dove è possibile visitare alcune stanza abitate in passato dagli eremiti. Inoltre altre stanze ospitano mostre di arte contemporanea molto interessante.
Fanno parte della visita la Chiesetta e la grotta. L’accesso alla grotta è piccolo ma chi lo oltrepassa permette a se stesso un viaggio infondo all’anima.

(Translated by Google) Enchanting place, well-preserved structures. Mystical place for believers and from my point of view also for non-believers. Wonderful wooded setting, it doesn't feel like being in the province of Agrigento, we recommend a day spent in peace in the cool. Perhaps few tourist activities such as mountain biking or horseback riding etc... Short road of about 200 meters to be covered on foot, let's say challenging... The visit to the cave is short but very demanding... it is advisable to accompany elderly people. Advised
(Original)
Posto incantevole strutture ben conservata Luogo Mistico per i Credenti e dal mio punto di vista anche per i non credenti. Cornice boschiva meravigliosa, non sembra di essere in provincia di Agrigento, si consiglia una giornata da passare in tranquillità al fresco . Forse poche attività turistiche tipo percorsi Mountain Bike o Trakking a Cavallo ecc... Breve circa 200 mt di stradella da percorrere a piedi diciamo impegnativa... La Visita alla Grotta impegnativa breve ma molto impegnativa ... si consiglia di accompagnare persone Anziane. Consigliato

Strada Provinciale, Via Libero Attardi, 54, 92020 Cammarata AG, Italy
The Scala dei Turchi is a stunning rock formation in the Agrigento region, characterized by its terraced white cliffs resembling a staircase. Located near Realmonte and around 15km west of Agrigento, it offers breathtaking views overlooking the sea and attracts many visitors who come to sunbathe on its smooth surface or dive into the deep blue waters. To avoid the crowds, you can walk north along the rocky shelf and descend to the sandy beach below.
It’s a very nice place to see and appreciate naturally made beauty. It’s a long stretch and you have many free areas to just enjoy yourselves, have some picnic and swim. The scenary is really amazing and fotos will look really good in this area. The restaurants and parking are also not very far from the beach. There are even public toilets in the area.

You can't get down to the beach anymore, so the only way to see this is to stop by the side of the road.
The landscape was unique and beautiful but too crowded, with people taking selfies. Would recommend swinging by if you are in the area.

Just perfect! The stairs were closed with guards nearby. Asked around and someone told us they were there until 8pm so we stayed around at the lido until that time. When the guards were gone we saw we weren't the only ones to witness this beauty, with the sunset it was more beautiful. Really enjoyed our day at this beautiful place/beach.
Sami Afkir — Google review
Just as in the photos, this place seems out of this world. Another wonder of nature. 🤍
The name of Scala dei Turchi or The Stairs of the Turks comes from the Saracen pirates, improperly called Turks by the locals, who in the 16th century used to land here to plunder the surrounding coastal villages.
The pure white colour is due to the special minerals and clays in the rock formation. It is formed of a special earthy material called marl.
Simply beautiful.

A Kodak moment - if those still existed. If you’re planning a trip to Sicily and will be near the Scala dei Turchi, it’s worth a stop. Tip: if you want to get down to the actual “scala” then you’ll want to stop before you reach the “viewpoint” (as Google maps calls it), which is where my photos are from. There’s no access to the scala from the viewpoint - but there is a truly remarkable view.
Blaec von Kalweit — Google review
The Scala dei Turchi is a stunning natural
attraction and offers a dramatic and picturesque landscape. Visitors can climb the inclined "steps" of the Scala dei Turchi, discovering various levels and vantage points to admire the breathtaking coastal scenery. The surrounding area is also home to sandy beaches, allowing visitors to combine sunbathing and relaxation with their visit to this natural wonder.
While the Scala dei Turchi can get quite crowded, especially during peak tourist seasons, it remains a must-see destination for its beauty and uniqueness. As said it can be very busy, therefore it is best visited early in the day. It's important to note that there are limited parking spaces available.

Awful tourist trap. Impossible to park unless paying extortionate prices and then it’s a long hot walk down to the beach. I came back early in the morning and viewed from the top. There are nicer beaches and better pictures on the internet so you don’t need to come here.
Tim Snell — Google review
The access to the cliff is closed( For safety reasons apparently), so you can only get closer to it by walking on the beach!
The cliff itself is beautiful but imo not worth the visit!
Hédia Ela — Google review
Meh. Unless they reopen it (it's closed with a gate and padlock) i don't think it's worth driving from Agrigento or wherever. You can only see it from quite far actually. On the first picture is where most people stop. The second is at that closed gate with 3x zoom on iPhone (77mm) to give you an idea.
I personally parked at the east-most side of town and walked on the beach to the Stairs, it took around 20 minutes; there are some beachside restaurants you can grab a bite to eat or get drinks at. Beware that many of the restaurants in the area are closed in the off-peak season such as right now 15 November.
Mathieu Clément — Google review
Great spot for sunset. There are some bars on the route and quite a few parking sites. You have to walk down first for some minutes, arrive at the beach and then walk towards the lime formation. It was not possible to walk up there in March, possibly for being low season
Carolina Canullo — Google review
We got down to the beach but the site is fenced off so it's only possible to take photos from a distance, through a fence of from the clifftop above. Not sure why you can't go on them anymore but this makes the visit fairly underwhelming and not worth the effort.
Sue Porter — Google review
This is one of the most beautiful place to see if you are around in the region.
Very close to Agrigento ancient greek temple valley, you can get there by car or by public transportation. Be careful that during peak season you may have difficulties to find a free car spot. You have a nice Belvedere from the top of the beach but you can also walk on the beach from the two sides of the rocks.
Important, is forbidden to walk on the stairs (rocks) and the access to the beach under the rocks is closed.
You can still find nice corners to see the stairs and take pictures.
The other alternative is to rent a boat and get close from the sea.
Respect the place and don't try to walk over the stairs.
We visited in may and it was not crowded.
The Giardino della Kolymbetra is a serene, non-profit botanical garden situated within a natural cleft of tufo walls. It boasts centuries-old olive trees and fragrant orange blossoms alongside over 300 identified plant species. Managed by FAI, visitors can enjoy the lush greenery and picnic tables for a break from the heat. However, those with mobility issues may want to avoid the steep descent into the garden.
Amazing garden inside the Temple's Vallery. There are a lot of plants (lemon and orange) and little river. You can discover here a peaceful place where resting during the visit at the various temples. Also they sell handmade products directly from fruits of the garden, these are not very cheap but these are very genuine.

Enter The Valley of the Temple from the door. 5 (porta V) is the closest entrance to the gardens. The entrance will be next to the first temple. By giardino they mean a mainly lemon fields and a small vegetable garden. The cave can’t be visit without a previous booking so make sure you book un advance. No information charts are around the area so it makes the visit a bit boring without much info. I believe the place has great potential but a thought storytelling is needed. Many benches and places for a rest is good so bring food and you can sit here.

Worth a detour to see all the varieties of fruit trees grown and sample some as you wander around. The temple of Vulcan was probably not worth the walk over. We also tasted a variety of marmalades they make - delicious. Also try the nut sweets.

Wow! Beautiful botanical garden on the site of the ancient Greek garden at the foot of the Valley of Temples. Also not to miss: the "hypogeum" -- an ancient tunnel carved through the hill (under the Temple of Castor and Pollux) joining the garden with the Fifth Gate.
After baking your brains out visiting the temple complex under the merciless sun, treat yourself.

Longdy Yi — Google review
If you like ruins and history, this place is amazing. The ruins are in very good condition. Some have been reconstructed, but the main temple is the original as it was used as a church and thus not destroyed for its stone. If possible, I strongly suggest that you hire a local guide as there is so much rich history and so many stories with this area. We learned so much from our guide, Marco. He was very kind and took the time to really explain to my son the history and about archeology.
If ruins and temples are not your thing, then skip. However, if you are interested in seeing and learning about history from over 2400 years ago, this is your place. I’m glad we made the stop here and we also enjoyed a one night stay in the town.

The Temple of Concordia is an ancient Greek temple located on a hill in Agrigento, featuring Doric architecture and informative displays. The site offers stunning views and it is advisable to arrive early to avoid long queues, as it tends to get crowded with Italian and other tourists around midday. There is ample parking available at a reasonable price, along with food options and a café near the entrance.
The best preserved of the temples. It is lit up at night. Looks particularly great at sunset. Probably the most important landmark in Agrigento.

It was a very interesting historic place. They gave you audio devices and numbers to know what you have to put in to listen abt what happened there or what USED to be there. I rly liked taking pictures there tho, issue is that there was not rly a lot of choice of restaurants so the food was expensive and not worth the money honestly. But I don’t think ppl visit there for the food so I’m gonna let that pass.

The temple is one of the most preserved temples outside of Greece. Definitely a sight to see if you are in the area. There is a statue that was donated by Igor Mitoraj that is depicting Icarus without his legs or arms. And if you know the story of Icarus his father told him not to fly too close to the sun because his wings were made out of wax but he did it anyways and died. The temple is well preserved because of it being converted to a Christian church after it's pagan beliefs it was built on were gone. It is a great temple and it is wonderful that it still stands today.

The valley of the temples - parking near the entrance is basically a poorly maintained rocky field, with ticket barrier entrance. The valley is historic for a number of Greek temples, some of the best conserved examples still in existence. Avoid during the hot hours of the day (it is open till very late!). Plenty of bathroom facilities and a bar along the ~2-3km route, there is also a shuttle bus that drives up and down (for extra fee)

Super impressive ancient site. Note that you can't go into the structure but walking around it is satisfying.

One of many historical constructions in the valli dei templi. We visited this site at mid of June in middle of the week. Make sure u arrive at 10 am or so. Lot of parking space then and no waiting. Also adult entry just 10 euro and audio guide 5 euro. Consumables like drinks are a bit more expensive than usual. Basic principles: Pick the high site parking number 2. You need about 3 hours of walking the tour. Wear white shirt or you will be overheated.
Chris Claeys — Google review
The main temple of the valley, as it's the most preserved.
Agrigento in itself is not that amazing, but the Valley of the Temples is its main attraction.
As we came by car, we parked at Gate V, took the 3 EUR per person taxi to the other end, and only walked the way back (2,5 hour promenade). This was also recommended by our hosts, and it's also presented at the Gate V entrance. Then we paid the admission ticket of 10€ at the second entrance, less than 5 min waiting line, same price as on their official website. No need to pay triple for skip the line. You can also pay 5€ extra for the museum, but that's located in a totally separate area, so you can pay directly at the museum if decidint to visit. We didn't.
As it's usually super hot (we visited in June), it's advisable to wear a hat and get some sunscreen. We weren't prepared, but we bought some hats at the entrance for around 15€/piece (there's lots of options), which turned out super useful and a nice memory to take home. :)
Several spots where you can fill up your water bottle, plus a nice cafeteria with drinks, sweets and snaks close to the main temple of Concordia.
Sicily's Valley of the Temples is a vast archaeological site featuring ancient temples and the ruined city of Akragas. The area encompasses 13 sq-km split into eastern and western zones, with ticket offices located at the southwestern and northeastern corners. The highlight is the well-preserved Temple of Concordia, along with several other ridge-top temples that served as beacons for sailors.
Ancient history becomes visible and almost touchable at the Valei del templi. Imagine the Greek, Romans and many other tribes and cultures using these sites. We visited mid summer 2021, at 40’c. This is not recommended. There is a antigen covid-19 test location for people without vaccination proof (QR code check at entrance, or negative test on-site). Access is around 13€ for adult and small children are for free. A must see, we have visited Greek and Roman historic sites everywhere, this temple site is special because of the preserved temple. There is also a museum site, which due to the heat we did not visit.
Ps; the actual entrance for the site is further up the road. Check Google maps for the entrance and follow the signs. Parking is available for ~3€.

The place itself is quite amazing, reflection of Greek architecture - not quite similar to acropolis but reminds you of it. Tickets are €10 pp parking depends on how much time you spend there, we paid €1.50 for being there close to an hour. Incredible views, could easily spend a great deal of time at this place. However, getting here was a nightmare. Every road that you think you can take here - the highways - were CLOSED OFF!! We got turned around and there are no cut off roads for you to make a U turn because they are closed off too - we went here April 12, 2022. The only road that was open cut through a small town and it also had a bunch of speed traps. The re-route delayed us by close to 2 hours🥴🥴🥴 The speed limit went from 80 to 50 to 40 within a matter of seconds. Be careful while driving and if possible check for road closures and alternate routes beforehand. There is a restaurant, but we just used the facilities and got some fresh squeezed blood orange juices to go. The website says it closes at 1.30pm but by the time we left it was a little after 2pm and people were still buying tickets.

Came here with a 4 year old and 2 year old and low expectations. This place was a blast! We parked in the East lot, took a cab to the top, and walked back down to our car. Shame you have to return the audio tour back to the same gate, I would have loved to hear about the rich history here, but the signage was sufficient. 10/10 one of the best things to do in Sicily.

Wander and feel this ancient site 📜
…visiting Sicily it’s a must!
If the season is hot, I’d recommend to start your visit around 1700 or later and benefit from the site being open in the evening. The sunset is beautiful here.

Amazing place and amazing route by surely the best preserved temples of the world from the Greek times. It is definitely worth a visit, although reaching the valley by car can be a bit tiring if you drive from Palermo or from the Eastern part of Sicily.
Tips: if the day is sunny and hot better go with an umbrella and litres of water because there’s no shadow at all there.

Absolutely beautiful valley charged with so much history!
Recommend to join a guided group (you can ask on the spot when buying your ticket) or take an audio guide, to fully hear the story of each temple.
Some of them are well preserved, others less, but their story and evolution in time are impressive.
Best to visit in the first hours of the day or before sunset (if the latter better to enter from the west entrance and walk to the east, as this shines a superb view on the temples). But me aware that from west to east it’s sloping upwards. (However a mild ish slope).
Paid large parking available.
There is a bit of a walk - about 2-2,5km one direction, a little bus can be taken for the return.

Really nice place full of history. Very well preserved Temples and Statues. The entrance price is very affordable. I think the best time to visit is during evening. I'm sure sunsets are amazing here. Even without the amazing history, the view of the surrounding hills from the top is breathtaking.

An incredible place to visit. The 2.2km walk across the valley isn't that long, but caution if you're going in the summer. It's like an oven!! We did an audio guide, but it wasn't that great. I would have been fine just walking around and seeing the temples. There's two major ones, one on either ends of the walk, with the bigger one near the end.

The place was amazing. It’s very beautiful view. Employees are friendly and nice, but they don’t speak other language than Italian. It’s very hard to be a tourist and deal with the language. They have a crazy rule about tripods so you’re not allowed to take pictures with a tripod so all the solo travelers like me we cannot have good pictures because we are solo and this is exactly the reason why solo travelers use tripods so I don’t get this .. they Blamed on UNESCO saying that is their rules but I was in Greece and they don’t care if you have a tripod so I don’t know what’s going on in this place but a guard come to me and start shouting to me because I was using my tripod and I am a solo traveler. I need a tripod. I don’t understand what’s going on with the humans, but this is crazy. Also, the place has no proper signals And I think that is missing some cleaning person on the toilets because the toilets were really dirty. Also these is cause turist are dirty .. is amazing how dirty they can be 🥹I think the government or whoever is taking the administration of this place is doing a bad job. Maybe it’s cause they don’t have a good people to hire but still we are talking about history and you need good people to share the history, so I am not happy with the With the whole experience.. better go to Greece 😇

We thought we going to need 3 hrs to visit, ended up being 6. So much to see! I LOVE archeology and gardens so it was definitely a bucket list place for me. We visted end of October, I think it would be best to avoid in full Summer. Definitely bring hat, water and wear great walking shoes.

Amazing place, rich in history. One of the best places to visit in Sicily. The only problem was finding the entrance. There was a lack of directions/signs. Google maps didn’t take us to the correct place (we later found out that this was because the main ticket office had moved). So plan your route carefully to make sure you get the best out of your visit. Take some water too as there is only one cafe and is quite a walk from the entrance.
Anthony Pascal — Google review
An absolutely do-not-miss site in Sicily, and one you really should visit first thing in the morning.
The significance of this site cannot be overstated. Incredible examples of Hellenistic temples in Italy, the structures tell the tale of Greece's once great power in the region, and it's eventual fading with increasing Roman dominance.
The hot Sicilian days will feel even hotter on this site with little shade and often little wind to cool you. Get there early both to beat the crowds (buses, so many buses) and the heat!
There is little information on site to interpret what you are seeing, so get some information from a reliable website, a good tour book (we used Rick Steves), or the audio guide (we did not use this ourselves).
Park at the eastern gate and walk to the west, seeing the temples as you go, then decide if you want to pay for the one-way taxi back to your car.
Then, DO NOT MISS the museum! On the northwest side of the site, it has so many artifacts and is so cheap to add on to your ticket to the valley. Parking is free at the museum and totally worth it. Don't try and park at the museum to see the valley, however, the distance is not practical and you don't want to wait for city buses...

This is a very good place to spend a day. This place has two entrances. One entrance has plenty of place to park the car but it’s paid. I didn’t see much options to park there car in the CV other entrance. The ticketing office is there in both sides of the site. Be aware, there are not be many signage to the place like you see in England. If you have kids the make sure you have some id proof of their age because their tickets are always free.

Amazing, beautiful, views. We took our first private tour with a lovely guide that met us at the entrance. Lots of great pics. Worth every penny. Also, stopped at the cafe and had a decent Arancini, coffee and scoop of gelato. Wonderful way to spend 3-4 hours.
Jerry Irick — Google review
Pricey entrance fee, but it provides a free audio guide app with some basic information about the site (though it was a bit tricky to get to the free audio guide). The place was definitely worth a visit, as you get to see a better-preserved pantheon here.
It was tasteless to be charging an additional parking fee; it is not like people would park here to visit something else.
There is a cafe/restroom after the 3rd site, which provides an excellent break spot, especially on a hot summer day.
Cindy W — Google review
A must see sight, steep in so much history… we only opted to see the temples which cost €24 for two adults and two children. Make sure to bring water and a hat, as hardly any shade available. There are a few water fountains available to refill your bottle, a few WCs one at the entrance and at the cafe but they are far apart. Couldn’t imagine visiting in the summer would be far too hot, we visited in early April. We took the train from Palermo, and decided to walk there, be warned there are lots of stairs and the paths are narrow, with limited shade. Somehow the map directed us to a sight post which took 26 minutes from the train station, thankful a local who was stood by the sight told us that the gate at the bottom was closed and are only for those leaving the ancient site and recommended we walk to the top to gain entry (see last photo, from the petrol station by the small roundabout follow the sign post with ‘Valley Dei Templi’, follow the road up until you can turn right. Will take you approximately 25 minutes, alternatively you could wait for the number 1 bus, but they are infrequent). The sights from above was amazing, you could see all the ancient temples from a far.

Absolutely stunning. Plenty to learn and lots to see. Fantastic walk as well. Suggest going before sunset so you can see both day and night lighting, with a wonderful sunset view as well.
The guidebook you get has SOME information, but not tons. If you’re interested in knowing more, would suggest either using Gemini.google.com to understand each, or getting the audio guide (we heard it was quite good but didn’t get it). FYI they will not let you have the audio guide if you arrive within 3 hours of closing.
Only toilets are at the extreme ends of the valley, so plan accordingly 😁.
Oh, and don’t forget to find the little goats along the city side of the wall!

The Valley of the Temples in Agrigento is a mesmerizing archaeological site that transports visitors to ancient times. The well-preserved Greek temples, such as the iconic Temple of Concordia, stand as majestic testaments to ancient architecture. The expansive grounds offer a captivating journey through history, surrounded by lush landscapes. Exploring this UNESCO World Heritage Site is a profound experience, providing a deep connection to Sicily's rich cultural heritage. Highly recommend immersing yourself in the Valley of the Temples for a glimpse into the magnificence of ancient Greek civilization.

Outstanding experience. Went in January and almost had the place to myself. Lovely mild day, perfect for walking around the ruins. Walked from the train station which is about 2km away and all downhill. Very little in the way of signposting for pedestrians though and no shops at the station - just one cafe/bar at the bottom of the hill as you get closer to the site. Couldn't find the entrance so I just climbed over a fence and got in for free - they really need to improve the information and signposting for pedestrians as they are clearly set up for cars and coaches only. Standard for Italy where the pedestrian is a third class citizen. Despite that, I loved the place and the quality of the ruins is exceptional - infinitely better than the sites you get in Greece and mainland Italy which are usually neglected, tatty and overcrowded. You need good walking shoes and be prepared to walk up a few hills and over boulders at times. The views out to the Mediterranean are awesome.
The castle is amazing, the way it is built and it's views. It has many original features and it is the most beautiful castle ever visited in Sicily. If you are in the whereabouts of Mussolmeli do visit. The guide provided us a very much information about the castle and it's legends.

Beautiful castle ! It is amazing how structures like this were constructed where they are. We were able to walk through quickly in about 45 minutes but could have spent a little longer. Lots of stairs and not good if you are scared of heights. The view is the reward for the stair climb - definitely worth it if you are able :)

Fantastic place to visit. The guardian's wife (Giuseppina) gave us a tour even though she didn't have to. We were the only visitors so it was a wonderful private tour.
A beautiful castle built into the rock, with many well preserved rooms. An impregnable fortress with amazing views.
Part of the pleasure was the gorgeous landscape along the road to get to Mussomeli.
Great experience! Even for small kids. Very nice presentation about our universe. The cherry on top was looking through the telescope - we’ve managed to observe Saturn :)

(Translated by Google) We did the "Ciaula discovers the Moon" route and it really was like this... From the underground of the mine to the wonderful full moon that was waiting for us outside and which we could admire with the external telescope. Then the vision, with the large internal telescope, of Jupiter with its 4 moons and the large Planetarium which told us about "the stars" in a complete and easy to understand way. Finally, a special thanks to our guide, Matteo, an 18-year-old boy, kind and very knowledgeable, to his availability and to those who allowed us to visit this place despite our short notice and the public holiday. Highly recommended, a great experience for adults and children.

Abbiamo fatto il percorso "Ciaula scopre la Luna" e davvero è stato così...Dal sottoterra della miniera alla meravigliosa luna piena che ci aspettava fuori e che abbiamo potuto ammirare col telescopio esterno. Poi la visione, col grande telescopio interno, di Giove con le sue 4 lune e il grande Planetario che ci ha raccontato "le stelle" in modo completo e facile da capire. Infine un ringraziamento particolare alla nostra guida, Matteo, ragazzo di 18 anni, gentile e preparatissimo, alla sua disponibilità e a chi ci ha permesso di visitare questo posto nonostante il nostro breve preavviso e il giorno festivo. Consigliatissimo, una bella esperienza per grandi e piccini.

(Translated by Google) The astronomical observatory of Montedoro is a gold "mine" for the district and for the whole of Sicily.
The term "Mine" in quotation marks is to describe the complete experience of the path that then leads to observation.
It is possible to purchase the complete package (Museo Della Zolfara + Planetarium + Observation) (recommended) or just the “Planetarium + Observation” route.
We chose the first option, the visit to the museum is educational to learn about the history of the area and, for better or worse, the whole of Sicily.
In fact, until the mid-twentieth century, sulfur extraction took place in Sicily, especially in the central area.
The sulfur mines were real death traps and accidents and deaths were frequent, especially of children, employed from an early age because there was the need to create low and small tunnels.
Children and people of low rank were "acquired" through a "Dead Rescue" contract: Children often under the age of 14 were entrusted by the family to the pickaxeman, to be used to transport the mineral from the underground to the surface with piecework remuneration. The boy's family, being almost always in a state of need, had the pickaxe give him advances, which were almost never returned, on the contrary they grew from week to week, until reaching 200-300 lire in a few years. At this point the boy remained strongly tied to the pickaxe and was obliged to work as a transporter for him until he had paid off the debt. And it was not uncommon for workers aged 30-40 years to be left "stranded" because they had not yet returned the "dead help".
The pact of "dead help" (dead because it did not produce interest) therefore strongly tied the "caruso" to the pickaxe and originated from the great shortage of transporters, which gave rise to great competition among pickaxers to get hold of them.
As for the visit, you then go inside a mine and a furnace for sulfur extraction.
After the visit to the museum and the mine we move inside the planetarium where the interactive viewing of short films and the subsequent explanation makes everything fascinating.
The final part is direct observation through the telescope. In my case the evening was dedicated to our satellite: the Moon.
(Original)
L’osservatorio astronomico di Montedoro è una “Miniera” d’oro per il comprensorio e per la Sicilia intera.
Il termine “Miniera” virgolettato è per descrivervi l’esperienza completa del percorso che porta poi all’osservazione.
È possibile acquistare il pacchetto completo (Museo Della Zolfara + Planetario + Osservazione) (consigliato) oppure solo il percorso “Planetario + Osservazione”.
Noi abbiamo scelto la prima opzione, la visita al museo è formativa per conoscere la storia del territorio e bene o male dell’Intera Sicilia.
Infatti fino alla metà del novecento in Sicilia soprattutto nella zona centrale si effettuavano le estrazioni dello Zolfo.
Le miniere di Zolfo erano vere e proprie trappole di morte ed erano frequenti gli incidenti e le morti soprattutto dei bambini, impiegati fin dalla tenera età perché c’era la necessità di creare gallerie basse e piccole.
I bambini e le persone di basso rango venivano “acquisite” tramite contratto “Soccorso Morto”: Ragazzi spesso di età inferiore ai 14 anni venivano affidati dalla famiglia al picconiere, per essere adibiti al trasporto del minerale dal sotterraneo alla superficie con remunerazione a cottimo. La famiglia del ragazzo, essendo quasi sempre in stato di bisogno, si faceva dare dal picconiere degli anticipi, che non venivano quasi mai restituiti, anzi crescevano di settimana in settimana, fino a raggiungere in pochi anni le 200-300 lire. A questo punto il ragazzo restava fortemente vincolato al picconiere ed era obbligato a fare il trasportatore presso di lui fino a che non avesse scontato il debito. E non era raro il caso di operai di 30-40 anni rimasti "carusi" perché non avevano ancora restituito il "soccorso morto".
Il patto del "soccorso morto" (morto perché non produceva interessi) vincolava, dunque, fortemente il "caruso" al picconiere ed aveva origine dalla grande carenza di trasportatori, che faceva nascere tra i picconieri una grande concorrenza per accaparrarseli.
Per quanto riguarda la visita, successivamente si va dentro una miniera ed un forno per estrazione del zolfo.
Dopo la visita al museo e alla miniera si ci sposta all’interno del planetario dove la visione interattiva di breve filmati e la successiva spiegazione rende tutto affascinante.
La parte conclusiva è l’osservazione diretta al telescopio. Nel mio caso la serata era dedicata al nostro satellite: la Luna.

I was looking forward to see this little Abbey but when we arrived despite the front gate was open the door of the church was closed at a time it says it should have been open. Another tourist was on the spot like us, wanting to see it and was complaining that also the day before the Abbey was closed, no clear explanation why. Looks like the priest responsible for keeping it open is rarely available...

So we visited the Abbey of Santo Spirito, really beautiful and even the caretaker was kind enough to let us visit it even though it was closing time. 💯💯💯❤️❤️

(Translated by Google) A beautiful church in Caltanissetta located in Via di Santo Spirito is the Abbey of Santo Spirito, dating back to the Arab-Norman period, it represents one of the oldest churches in the area. The building is massive with a rectangular plan and characterized by the presence of a corner tower. the Abbey was born as a fortified farmhouse in which the surveillance and defense of the rich surrounding agricultural land was important. In 1092, by will of Count Roger, it was transformed into a place of worship for the evangelization of Muslims living in the countryside.
The interior of the church is characterized by a large baptismal font, a 15th century crucifix, painted on wood, and late 15th century frescoes: Christ Blessing, The Study of Saint Augustine and The Mass of Saint Gregory.
I recommend the visit
(Original)
Una bellissima chiesa a Caltanissetta sita in Via di Santo Spirito è l’Abbazia di Santo Spirito, risalente al periodo arabo normanno, rappresenta una delle chiesette più antiche della zona. La costruzione è massiccia con planimetria a forma rettangolare e caratterizzata dalla presenza di una torre d’angolo. l’Abbazia nacque come un casale fortificato in cui era importante la sorveglianza e la difesa del ricco terreno agricolo circostante. Nel 1092, per volontà del conte Ruggero, venne trasformata in luogo di culto per l’evangelizzazione dei musulmani residenti nelle campagne.
L’interno della chiesa è caratterizzato da un grande fonte battesimale, da un crocifisso del XV secolo, dipinto su legno, e dagli affreschi tardo- quattrocenteschi: Cristo benedicente, Lo studio di Sant’Agostino e La messa di San Gregorio.

Stupenda Abbazia Medievale di origine Normanna risalente al 1153, situata fuori dal centro abitato di Caltanissetta, immersa in un oasi di pace. Vale la pena visitare sicuramente l'interno della Chiesa, magnifico anche il fonte battesimale.

Well maintained, clean, sheltered and friendly marina with everything a liveaboard needs within walking distance.
Active liveaboard community in the winter.
Nice and affordable winter package for all kinds of vessels.
With BBQ place, shops, bars and restaurants.

Great marina. Good facilities. Friendly community. Good service. Pricey chandlery, but aren't they all. Downside is expensive calor gas and no fuel in this marina or within 30nm although the marina staff will drive you to car fuel station in the town

Reasonable place at the south shore of Sicily. New safe marina. Good point for trip to Malta. There are wintering on bord. Some problems with long transfer from international airport at evening and night time.
Alexey Verkhovskiy — Google review
Very secure marina, within quick reach of Egadis Islands, Malta, Siracusa ... All the staff is very welcoming and helping, above expectation. Licata seems nondescript on first impression, while it’s in fact an attractive little town. Only drawback: it’s a 2h drive from Catania Airport, but with quite good road connection (and cheap public bus, shared taxi or car renting). Quite lively with many trippers, the place has a lot of growing space, and is catamaran-friendly, which is not so common in the med.
Had to downgrade from 5 to 3 when I was told on end of June departure date, that my booked and prepaid mooring would t be available in oct. (got a refund). maybe shouldn’t t have pushed quite a few fellow sailors there after all.
Enna Cathedral, also known as Sicily's belvedere, is situated in the highest province capital in Italy. The ancient city offers breathtaking panoramas of the Sicilian countryside and exudes an enchanting atmosphere that reflects its rich history influenced by various cultures and dominations.
This is a great find well worth a couple hours travel. We were passing by while travelling to the Temple Valley from Catania and did that 1 hour stop in Enna to take a look at this historical place. It is absolutely magnificent and very well decorated. You can feel both the historical character and the the cultural spirit of the place. Just take a look at the photos... and multiply the feel by 10!

Perched atop a lush hill, the grand Lombardia Castle boasts panoramic vistas from its lofty spires. Also nearby is the Maniace fortress, blending into the sandy shores and glistening waters. A leisurely stroll or jog around the island's perimeter reveals Ortigia's diverse beaches and occasional pontoons dotted with sun loungers extending out into the sea.
You need about 1 hour to see everything. In general, good to visit if it’s on your route, but it’s not a place to go in particular. The views are great.

Magnificent castle with beautiful views. This could be a massive tourist attraction if it had some proper information and museum telling about the history. We left without being much wiser about the place. The information available is not very good. Remember to include the virtual museum in your ticket - it might be small but very interesting.

Came on Monday about 09:45, it was empty so had tge opportunity to take pictures at our leisure. Price was €4 per person with tower included. Nobody really monitoring whether you go into the tower. You can spend 30-60 minutes here at a slow pace. Parking outside was free.

Wandering through Enna and saw this magnificent structure sitting on top of a mountain.
The castle is closed to the public, or at least was when we visited in August of 2022, but you can walk around the area and see the views of the area and valley from the rocks.
Impressive massive structure.

Great castle and reasonable entrance fee (€3) but a lot of the area was sealed off. Main tower was open though and very high up stone staircase in side but amazing views. Staff on entrance was very friendly. Some shade areas to rest. Not sure if there were toilets but very good, clean free ones with optional contribution in square outside.

Villa Romana del Casale is an outdoor museum located in the southwest of Piazza Armerina, Sicily. It was a luxurious residential villa and estate during the 4th century AD, believed to have been owned by Rome's co-emperor, Marcus Aurelius Maximianus. The complex consists of four interconnected groups of buildings with exceptionally well-preserved multicoloured floor mosaics covering an area of 3535 sq m.
Really cool place! Don't think I've ever seen this much mosaic in one place, crazy that their bits outside where you can walk/lie/sit on it are more than we have in most sites in the UK!! Great signposts too, giving good explanations of what each room was and key parts in the scene.
Bea D. — Google review
There are amazing mosaics in the rooms of this huge ancient palace. You are able to view them from above by means of a scaffolding type walkway which winds through the structure. There are signs describing the rooms in several languages. Guides are available as well. Restoration continues. It's a great place to see and understand how people lived in ancient times on Sicily.

It's a bit hard to get to the villa but since you arrive you can read/hear the stories and enjoy great artifacts spread all across the villa.
There wasn't any line in the entrance and we didn't have to buy tickets in advance.
Notice that the little shops along the way to the villa are VERY EXPENSIVE so if you can buy water and food in advance and bring it with you, do it.
We had a lovely time!

Very impressive mosaics. We went during evening hours, only a dozen or so people, so no queues or congestions on the walkways above the mosaics. The paths on the site are well lid and very nice temperature during the summer evening.
Peter Hide — Google review
Awesome mosaics a bit off the usual tourist route but definitely worth the detour. We only had an hour which was barely enough to walk through the villa and read a few of the interesting descriptions of the mosaics. While a quick 1 hour tour is possible i would recommend to plan on at least 1.5 or 2 hours not to feel rushed and to have enough time to read more of the descriptions or to arrange a tour with the tour guides there on site. Note parking is paid at 2 Euros for the first hour and 1 Euro each additional hour. There are free restrooms in the tourist village by the parking lot and also at the Cafe closer to the villa.

The mosaic are beautiful preserved. Many rooms and lots of information. You will want to plan on 3 hours to see it all. If you have limited time, skim the front of the tour and spend the time in the master chambers.

The building complex is huge, and was clearly high status. Almost every room is decorated with wonderful colourful mosaic floors, generally in outstanding condition. There is even some plaster and decoration on some of the walls. It has been well laid out for visitors. The signage, in Italian and English, is informative. The audio guide is good too.
A stunning place to visit, and extremely good value.

Villa Romana del Casale is a preserved Roman Villa more like a Palace inside, full of outstanding mosaics. I recommend going with a guide who will bring the whole thing to life.
The mosaics are outstanding and the main rooms have ones depicting people and scenes such as hunting.
There are free toilets nearer the Villa a walk past the entrance booth near in the cafe come bookshop on your right as you walk towards the villa.

It was a nice experience. The place is full of artistic decorations depicting life at that time. Each room has a different design / story to tell. The complexity of certain images is fascinating.
The kids enjoyed it too - highly recommended.
There is a large parking next to the venue, so that is not an issue.
If you have time, getting a guide to take you around the place and give you more details about the history and lifestyle at that time would make the experience richer. These guides would be available at the entrance for those interested.
James Spiteri — Google review
You don't need to be a historian to admire this magnificent art. Simply impressive. The mosaics date from cca 4st AD and some amazingly preserved. It took us about 2 hours to visit them all, not because it’s a huge area but we stopped at every room delighted by the variety of motifs. It was a beginning of January and there was no crowd neither in Villa nor at the parking. The entrance ticket was 13€adults, children up to 18free and 18-25 6.5€. Go to toilet before you enter the Villa (before purchasing tickets) as no inside as far as we remember. Outside there were two for free.

Visited early February (low season), car park €2 for first hour then €1 each subsequent hour. With no crowds (perhaps 20 other visitors?) we saw everything and read every information board in 2 hours. There is wheelchair access to the walkway above the interior mosaics but unless you can stand up periodically you won’t see much and it’s too narrow for two chairs/pushchairs to pass most of the time. The mosaics are wonderful- detailed, interesting and well preserved/renovated. One snack bar was open beside carpark in Feb, with adequate food. Toilets (take your own paper) are by the carpark, and near entrance ticket booth, none inside the site.

Michael Stemmeler — Google review
One of the finest mosaics in the world with outstanding colours .Quite breath-taking as you weave through the gang ways above . There is also a good restaurant for snacks on the site . I would avoid the free day on Sundays when it is mobbed ,better to pay admission during the week when it is quieter . If you are in the area do not miss it it well worth while
Piazza Armerina, a lesser-known destination in the Sicilian interior, is often overshadowed by its nearby Roman site, Villa Romana del Casale. Located on a hilltop, this town is not frequently visited by tourists. To reach it, one should avoid taking the exit to Piazza Armerina North and South and instead follow the street for 10 kilometers in the direction of Gela. At kilometer 60 of s.s.
There are some remarkable exhibitions in this small but lovely museum

Regional Archaeological Museum of Gela can be considered together with Siracusa, Palermo, Agrigento, Catania among the most important in southern Italy and in the Mediterranean. There are contents, archaeological finds, inscriptions, coins, architectural elements and much more from various periods from prehistory to the Middle Ages. However, the collection of the classical and Greek era is impressive. Unmissable visit for tourists who want to discover Sicily and relive some of its most significant testimonies. Welcome, I recommend to visit the museum with a local guide. :)
EUGENIO MATTIA MANISCALCO — Google review
one of the things to visit in Gela together with the Acropolis! the doric column left brings back all the idea of where the temple of demetra/ceres was before. Walking around the acropolis is very suggestive especially during events inside.
Vast outdoor mall offering outlet stores of designer apparel & footwear brands, plus casual dining.
If you are in the area and need to do some one last stop shopping this is the place to go. You can find a lot of brands, for all budgets, all on at least 20-35% discount, even for new releases. From Catania by bus or car it is 1 hour away. At the moment, for going by bus a FFP2 mask is required. One very nice thing is the separate family parking.

Sicilia Outlet Village in Agira, Sicily, receives generally positive feedback from visitors. Many appreciate the variety of brands and the quality of the products offered, with discounts reportedly reaching up to 70% on top brands. The shopping environment is frequently described as pleasant and comparable to well-known outlet villages in other countries.
Overall, with a 4.0 rating from over a thousand reviews, the Sicilia Outlet Village seems to be a worthwhile destination for those looking to find high-end brands at reduced prices. The mix of positive and less favorable reviews suggests that while most visitors have a good experience, outcomes can vary based on individual expectations and interactions

The outlet was great, the pricing was rly cheap. Including having outlet price and having another 30-50% off of that already discounted outlet price. I won’t give 5 stars because choices of food was not that big and also it could’ve been bigger. But I won’t give it 3 stars because the immediate tax refund feature there saved us a lot of time and headache so I will keep it at 4 stars

Me, my friend and our 3 children (15,15,16) come from Germany and are visiting Sicily. We came today on 3.4.2023 to the outlet to shop. I had 400€ (4 green Banknotes- 4 pieces 100€) in my wallet. As I paid with my friend in the store Sandro Ferrone Retail (15:00 o’clock), we were the only customers there. Unfortunately I left my wallet in the store and about 10 minutes later the info point called my name that they found my wallet. As I came (2 minutes later) to the info point in order to pick up my wallet, I opened it and the money was not there. My friend saw the money in the store in wallet just before I paid (with the credit card)- so the only way it has gone lost was either in the store or on the way to the info point. There are all over the stores the cameras but the lady at the info point told me, she can’t check the camera- only when I go to the police station. I am sure she can check on the cameras and try to figure out who took the money out of my wallet. I am very sad about this and hope there is any solution for this problem.

For an outlet village there were a lot of shops without a discount. However, it is a great idea and definitely worth visiting if only for the experience. A lot of high-end brands shops. If possible go there by car, the buses are for the brave of heart. It might come, it might not, it's a guessing game. (Last sentnce obviously a joke but with a grain of truth)

Very nice place to visit. Has a children's playground that's in the shade. Has multiple stores of A brands and a big chunk of A+ brands. It's cheaper, not stupendously cheap. Parking is a breeze and if you have kids, you can park your car under a canopy. The place is very clean and when I visited, it was 35c, they had these poles that atomized water, my kids loved it and it cooled them down as well. It was one of the biggest outlet village's I've ever visited.

A visit of the archeological Museum of Aidone is a must for all those that take a tour to Morgantina, as it provides much needed context and important information im regards to the life and socio-cultural context of the ancient city of Morgsntins at the archeological park.
The museum is housed in the former monastery of the Cappucini which was build between 1611 and 1613 AD and was dedicated to Saint Francis.
The entrance is located in the former church that is now also used as a meeting room.
The museum hosts numerous artifacts from the Greko-Roman city of Morgantina that was founded around 1000 BC and from the Citatell that is the ancient site of a prehistoric town of the bronze age that dates back to around 2100 to 1800 BC.
The most famous artefact exhibited is the Dea di Morgantina. A female statue that probably depicts the goddess Demeter and was sculptured between 425 and 400 BC.
The statue was discovered by tombraiders and secretely removed and later sold to the Getty Museum and exhibited in the Getty Villa at Malibu in southern California.
It was not until 2011 that this important and wonderful artefact was returned to Aidone, where it is now exhibited close to the place where it was originally located.
The museum is usually open every day. However, on certain holidays it might be closed and it should be checked beforehand if it is indeed open.
There is a combination ticket that costs €14.00 and includes a visit to the Museum in Aidone, the archeological park of Morgantina and the Villa Romana del Casale in Piazza Armerina.
This is the package that I would recommend as it gives access to three very important and locally close venues that one does not want to miss.
Discounts are given to those between 18 and 25 years of age and teachers. For those younger than 18, the entrance is free.
One should plan at the very least one hour to examine the exhibitions and appreciate the significance of the displayed artefacts that reach back to the early bronze age.

Well displayed, surprisingly rich collection of Greek artefacts from nearby Morgantina.
Many explanations in English as well as Italian. Peacefully sited up a hill with fine views. The museum was once a convent. It is possible to park nearby (at present) but the roads are narrow. We chose to park lower in town and walk up well- signposted route.
Pleasant staff. Clean loos. Cafés and restaurants nearby. Other museums in town also worth a visit.

Nice small museum that shows what was excavated in the near Morgantina archaeological site. The most famous feature is the "Venus", that was for years in the Paul Getty Museum in LA and was recently given back.
The silvers are now back, but they have to "travel" the world every 4 years because of an international agreement.
Ask for the joint ticket that allows to also enter Morgantina site and Piazza Armerina Villa del casale. The three sites are very close.

Nice little museum with some great artifacts from Morgantina. Well worth a visit, especially if you get the combined ticket with Morgantina and Villa Romana del Casale. There is some spectacular gold jewelry and I was interested to see the painted busts. The only downside was that over half of the display notices were only in Italian.

The renowned urban staircase, constructed during the 1600s and adorned with patterned ceramic tiles in the 1950s, is highly recommended as a must-see attraction. Visitors can opt for a tuk-tuk ride to reach the top instead of climbing on foot if preferred. Exploring this picturesque site from different angles will require more than usual time and effort but it is definitely worth it.
Must see. You can take a tuk-tuk ride and ask to be left of the top of the stairs, instead of climbing the steps, specially if you are not so young…

To scale the 142 steps is surely the "#1 must do activity" when visiting Caltagirone!
The steps are punctuated on either side by many local ceramic shops and the reward for making the ascent is the fantastic view at the top.
I am admittedly unfit (but without ailments) and was a tiny bit out of breath at the top! The steps are broad, but (if your legs are long enough) can be climbed one per stride. This approach was much trickier when making the descent (resulting in an accumulation speed), and 2 steps per step proved a better rhythm.

Worth the 4€ admission. Some of the pottery dates back to the 6th century BC, but they also have some fine 17th-19th century pieces, too. Not much is in any language other than Italian, which is fine. Helpful staff.
It appears that they may be suffering from some structural issues, which is keeping part of the exhibit from being accessible. The building is in pretty bad shape.

Via Giardini Pubblici, 95041 Caltagirone CT, Italy
Laid-back rooms, some with sea views, in a relaxed beachfront B&B with a terrace & a TV lounge.
I stayed in la Casa di Montalbano for one night. Despite a little problem of communication at the beginning, Daria and Ivana solved it very professionally. Everything was great. The informations for a self check-in very clear and precise, so i had no problems to get in. The view from the room is beautiful. One of the most amazing sunsets ever. Delicious breakfast. Its very quiet and calm inside, because of just a couple of rooms, far from the touristic noise. The sunbeds and parasols are provided in each room. Just perfect!

It’s a dream come true to visit this place, but it’s under remodeling since I don’t know when and no word on when they’re going to finish

Definitely worth the effort to get here. Is a fabulous b&b (we took the ground floor appartment and self catering only) it is a dream house to live on the beach, with the balcony giving shade from above. Punta decca has enough good bars and restaurants to make any length of stat very easy. Highly recommended.

One night in the Montalbano house. What an experience. The views on the balcony over the beach and sea are amazing. You feel like an extra in this famous Sicilian police tv show

A must b&b for fans of the hit series Montalbano. I booked directly with the hotel. We arrived late to the airport and rang the hotel who kindly arranged pick up service. The morning croissants are huge and freshly baked. They run out fast so go down to breakfast early. We had breakfast on the balcony at the table Montalbano sat at. The hotel arranges car tours for Montalbano fans to explore the island. We did this. We found the seafood restaurant where Montalbano dines too!

Great location direct access to a beach. Very clean and tidy, facilities are good, cooking facilities, fridge/freezer, utensils etc. Lovely shower room and wc area. Plenty of wardrobe space and hangers shelves and drawers.

One of the undoubted highlights of my life. The location, the views, and the sunsets are outstanding. The rooms and use of the living room, dining room and terrace make this an immense joy to stay here. Ivana and her colleagues make you feel very much at home. Punta Secca is a small but perfectly formed place, may it and Casa Montalbano never change.

Good scenery over the sea. I didn’t go in. This is a notable place because of the popular series Montablano that was filmed there. There were tourists taking photos..

Simply the best place on earth ! Very welcomed team, very clean, apartment equipped of beach front umbrellas and chairs, fully equipped kitchen and given sea towels too ...
I cannot recommend this place more than ever. With the best view and located ON THE BEACH, you will have a dream coming true time ... We spent our honeymoon with our kids, we will be coming back very soon ... Best place EVER ... thanks to Ivana, Daria and the Owner Pietro ... you all made our time the best memorie to look for ...

We didn’t actually stay in the B and B, as it was under construction, but the town was exactly what you think it would be from watching Montalbano! There’s a lovely sea breeze and wonderful walks on the beach!
Probably a bit crazy in the summer, but on an early spring day it was awesome!
Marisco is a popular restaurant located in Marina di Ragusa, Sicily. The area was historically known as Mazzarelli and gained prosperity in the late 19th century due to trade. Marisco offers a delightful dining experience with its diverse menu and inviting ambiance. It is among the top-rated restaurants in Marina di Ragusa, attracting visitors with its Sicilian and pizza offerings. The restaurant's reputation for fantastic dinner experiences has made it a must-visit dining destination in the region.
Fresh tuna coated with pistachio grains is a main course off the menu. I would like to suggest to add it as a variant 'cause contrast of taste is popping up in your mouth.
Perfect quantity and fish freshness quality.

Very friendly and welcoming staff. The restaurant is very clean and tastefully decorated. Service is very quick. We were served 10 minutes after ordering. Both seafood and pizza were very high quality and very well presented. Definitely would recommend
Peter Bell — Google review
The top restaurant in Marina di Raguza. Very friendly staff and the food is simply delicious. We visited the place once and couldn't resist coming back.
I can highly recommend Degustazione Crudi and Salmone alla Marisco from the appetizers section. To mention some fantastic main courses: Tonno Scottato is a big portion of delicious tuna, cacio pepe e gamberi is an amazing creamy pasta that you will remember forever. All pizzas also fantastic!
Ask for Charme Bianco wine from Sicily - you will love it.

Very good food in a butiful location just on the Mediterranean see. The staff is very nice as well
יניב אלעזר — Google review
High quality food, but a touch pricy.
The three course meal was probably the best value (€35 and fresh fish in all dishes + wine and water).
A safe bet.

I had fantastic pasta with king prawns and very good dry sauvignon blanc. Love this place. And people are very kind.

Lungomare Andrea Doria, 104, 97010 Marina di Ragusa RG, Italy
The Duomo of San Giorgio is a baroque catholic church located in Ragusa Ibla, Sicily, Italy. It is one of the most beautiful churches in the city and is worth a visit for sure. The square around the church is full of character and atmosphere, making it an excellent location to enjoy a peaceful afternoon or evening.
Most beautiful church of Ragusa, worths a visit, for sure. After 4:00 pm, the light effect was like magic.

A landmark of the Sicilian Baroque. Also a prominent filming location for Montalbano fans. Worth seeing the interior. Dominates the surrounding countryside.

The Duomo di San Giorgio is a gem . Its existence is difficult to understand. What is such a pearl doing here? Close to the city of Ragusa , San Giorgio is a magnificent place, especially late in the evening when it is quiet and the tourists have disappeared. The church itself is not more beautiful than others inside but worth a visot
Matteo Stefani — Google review
Majestic Duomo sitting high above the square with a massive iron fence and gate. Impressive.
As we passed through the square today, we noticed a wedding had just taken place, and the doors were open, and we ventured in.
Breathtaking structure with a main altar surrounded by red velvet curtain. The side chapels are impressive by themselves with marble altars and huge paintings.
The details inside the Duomo are worth the visit if you travel to Ragusa.

Truly beautiful church. Took this picture which is my all time favourite picture I’ve ever taken, the light, peacefulness and the church beauty.

Duomo di San Giorgio in Ragusa Ibla is a stunning architectural gem. The intricate details of the façade and the breathtaking interior make it a must-visit for anyone in Sicily. The blend of Baroque and Renaissance styles creates a unique atmosphere that transports you to another era. A true masterpiece!

A beautiful backdrop to the old town and lovely inside as well, there is a museum, which the lovely guide was very keen for us to see, but I would moderate your expectations!
Ibla is a charming town located at the bottom of a hill, while Superior sits atop it. The two areas offer stunning views of each other's skylines. Ibla is part of the Ragusa province, which also includes popular destinations like Scicli, Modica, and Ispica. This region is known for its rich history, natural beauty, and exceptional cuisine, making it a must-visit for travelers seeking an authentic Italian experience.

Beautiful park in Ragusa Ibla. It is definurely worth a visit, if you are in the area. It is small, but has some lovely views of the countryside. There is a playground for children and toilets (although they hadn't been cleaned in a very long time when we visited in December 2022 and the taps didn't work).
Be aware that there is another location on google maps, named Giardino Ibleo (Corso Italia, Ragusa Superiore). Giardino Ibleo cannot be found at this site.

Large beautiful green space in old town Ragusa. Quite the surprise when I happened upon the park during my morning walk.
You enter through the main gate and are led into a large garden that is very impressive. There are so many walkways, large plantings of shrubs and trees, so many places to sit and rest and a beautiful fountain in the center.
The views of the valley and the newer part of the city of Ragusa are visible from the outer edge of the park.
Nice surprise and worth the visit if traveling in Ragusa old town.
Very well prepared park, with plenty of activities for kids from 3 to 99. We spent half a day with a 3 y.o. and he had a lot of fun. There is food available as well. Helmets are required, you can borrow one for free, but if you have your own, do bring it.
My only complaint is about the toilets. Doing a #2 with a 3 y.o. is an acrobatic challenge in itself as the toilets are very basic and lack seats. Don't let that stop you though - the park is well worth a visit and is a great way to escape the Sicilian heat thanks to all the trees.

Nice and helpful staff. Valentina made our visit a special experience! The climbing routes are kind of normal, nothing to be too excited about. But the zip line over the valley was great fun!

It is a nice place but not enough staff to watch over the 3-7 year old section. My granddaughter got stuck in the vertical tube made of the net . No one was around and I had to go and get help . After falling inside the tube not one member of staff came to see how she was

Perfect for a day of family fun. Booking tickets online is cheaper (e.g. can't buy the family pack at the desk). Friendly staff, the food is at very good prices too. No crowds on a Saturday in April. Recommended!
