What you can expect

Visit the very special Kolymbethra Garden, a part of the Valley of the Temples. Learn all about its long history as you soak up the tranquil atmosphere. Opt to add on an underground tour and discover the hypogea underground chambers.
Located in Agrigento, Kolymbethra Garden is a shaded corner of paradise, where centuries-old olive trees prosper and where the citrus fruits flood the Valley of the Temples with their fragrances. An embodiment of the promised land and an exceptional garden, where nature is fused with history, this little valley is a significant part of Akragas.
The garden is a worthy addition to a visit to the Archaeology Park nearby, and a thrill for the five senses: from the aroma of the orange blossom to the flavour of the almonds, from the silvery tint of the olive trees to the moisture of the soil, all accompanied by the delicate sound of water constantly flowing in the background.
No visit is complete without a trip along the new routes to the hypogea underground chambers, which are of great interest in terms of archaeology, speleology, and the natural environment. Select the option to add on a guided tour of the hypogea for a unique experience while at the Valley of the Temples.
