In Agrigento, getting around is quite easy and convenient. The city center is small and walkable, so most visitors prefer exploring on foot, especially when visiting main attractions like the Valley of the Temples. For those looking to travel a bit farther, there is a local bus network that connects different parts of the city, although its schedule may be limited. Taxis are available, and you can either hail one in the city center or call a local company for pick-up. If you're only visiting the town's temples and would like to take a stroll through the city, you can park your car at the Valley of the Temples parking lot and take bus lines 1 or 2 into town. Bus tickets cost between 1.20 and 1.70 EUR, and can be purchased directly from the driver.

Agrigento is generally very safe, but it's always a good idea to stay alert for pickpockets, particularly at the Valley of the Temples, in lines, or in crowded areas.

Agrigento is a small town, so dining options may be limited, but the region's Mediterranean cuisine offers excellent choices for vegetarians and those with gluten or dairy-free needs. Many restaurants are now familiar with accommodating special diets, so it's always a good idea to inform the staff in advance, and they’ll likely be able to cater to your requirements.

We recommend spending two nights in Agrigento, to give you a full day to explore the Valley of the Temples, and the town itself.
