Discover Erice, Segesta and Selinunte
The Province of Trapani juts out into the sea from Sicily’s west. This enchanting land is composed of marvelous coasts that alternate with steep cliffs and endless beaches. The archaeological remains and the small villages where the most authentic traditions are still part of daily life make the Province a very attractive tourist destination. Trapani Province is particularly renowned for the extraordinary cultural heritage spread all over its territory, from the archaeological area of Segesta, located in the coastal hinterland, to Selinunte, Erice and the Island of Mothia. View ancient Italian cities on a full-day tour of the Sicilian cities of Erice and Segesta. You will drive to western Sicily to arrive in Erice, a Medieval town perched on a mountain, offers an incredible panorama and boasts a millenary history, evident in its still-extant section of Punic walls. You will travel on to Segesta. Once in Segesta, dominated from above by a majestic Doric temple (5th century B.C.) it has an impressive view of the surrounding area. Besides traces of fortified doors and perimeter walls, you can admire the magnificent Greek theatre and the remains of a sanctuary. Selinunte is one of the most representative sites of Classical Civilization, located in a very charming spot within the reserve of the River Belice Nature Reserve. Here you will see the ruins of the colossal Greek temples looming over the territory, the acropolis and the remains of houses and of a perimeter wall. The archaeological park at Selinunte is huge, incorporating Greek temples, ancient town walls, and the ruins of residential and commercial buildings, countryside paths and zones not yet excavated.
