Family trip - Enza was a great tour guide. Very knowledgeable and attentive. Our tour was in English and Italian and she had great information in both languages. We would highly recommend Enza as a guide!

Valley of the Temples - Our guide was excellent and very knowledgeable! She kept the tour moving at a nice pace and told history in both Italian and English so everyone in the group could understand. Would highly recommend!

Too cool - Had a perfect day! Our guide was very knowledgeable and concerned about our wellbeing as it was hot. She made sure we were in the shade, when she told us about what were seeing. She made the tour come to life. It’s an easy bus ride from Agrigento to the temples, take bus #1 or 2 it drops you off at the entrance, come back the same way. Very memorable site!

Good tour - The tour and the guide Sara were very good. The only thing I was not happy with was that the company changed the time of our tour and would not consider giving us another day in which to do the tour. Otherwise I was quite happy with the tour.

No guides in Spanish - The place is simply wonderful! Unfortunately, we could not get Guide in Spanish and with audio guide you lose stories, details, charm! Spanish speakers are not considered!!!☹️

A lot of standing around while everything is repeated in different languages . - The place was great and tour guide was good. Though we bought the English-speaking tour, the tour was conducted in English and Italian — so you stood around half the time while everything was repeated in another language. Would not have bought the ticket if I realized that was the case.

Logistical issues - value lacking - The tour guide had no record of our reservation which held up everyone until she was able to resolve. The group size was over 25 which was too large to hear her unless you were up front. I wouldn’t recommend for the price we paid.

Good… but - The tour began on time and took the thirty or so people that comprised our group to what our guide said was about 40% of the park’s sites. He was quite knowledgeable but his English was so heavily accented and he spoke so fast that a number of people just gave up and stopped wearing the earbuds. (I usually do pretty well with cutting through accents; not this time.) As an ironic side note, the listening devices worked really well! Also, it is billed as a two-hour tour (cue the theme music to Gilligan’s Island). But because there were two Italian-language-only people on the tour, the guide had to say everything in both languages. Result: a three-hour tour. Just be aware. Ends with a 20 minute on your own walk back to the starting point.

Worth it! - A great experience. Walk through the Valley of Temples. Very useful to start the tour at the top and go downhill. The tour guide was considerate, always giving explanations in the shade, cleverly organizing that the explanations in English and Italian did not become exhausting. However, her English was really very difficult to understand.

Not worth the money - The Guide was not interesting and had 2 groups , one English and one Italian, it took too long waiting for both presentations and we only had so much time. It was supposed to be an English Tour and we waisted too much time.
