Further details for this holiday chateau / country house rental in Agrigento, Italy

Agrigento, Selinunte, Segesta and Sciacca: Day trips from S.M. di Belice include Agrigento (85 km), Selinunte (35 km), Segesta (45 km) and Sciacca (30 km). Agrigento is a major tourist center due to its extraordinarily rich archaeological legacy. At the Valley of the Tempels, the Classical world comes alive. The temples are the largest and best-preserved ancient Greek buildings outside of Greece itself. They are listed as a World Heritage Site. An ideal first glimpse of the temples is by night, during a drive along the Strada Panoramica. Segesta is one of the most romantic classical sites. The Greek theatre on the hill offers a wide view. Selinunte is a huge and very interesting site, left in splendid isolation, flanked by rivers and ancient ports. Sciacca is a working fishing town with a well preserved historic centre and some shops and good restaurants. The coast around Sciacca is sprinkled with excellent sandy beaches.

Visit premium wine producer Planeta: In the country side of Sambuca di Sicilia,, a historic Arab-Norman town, the premium wine producer Planeta can be visited. Original home of the family and the business, the 17th century farmhouse stands between the ruins of an Arab castle, the Arancio lake and a mountain range.
