Pricing & Included stuffs
The Scala dei Turchi bike excursion is a coastal trail rich in panoramic viewpoints and in constant connection with the sea. The experience allows you to observe and photograph the Scala dei Turchi from unique and lesser-known angles, offering a truly fascinating perspective. After a short briefing, you’ll get on your e-bike and begin exploring this part of Sicily, riding along ancient roads and short trails that lead to spectacular sea viewpoints. Here you can stop, relax, and enjoy the unique scenery.
Going on the route descends toward the sea, reaching some of the most beautiful beaches on the southern coast of Sicily, still unspoiled and wild. On warmer days, one of these stops offers the chance to enjoy a refreshing swim and snorkeling in crystal-clear waters.
The tour continues as you ride into an authentic Sicilian village, where time seems to have slowed and traditions are still part of everyday life. Wandering through charming alleys and quiet squares, you’ll taste the best local street food, guided by someone who deeply knows these traditions. You will taste: arancine, panelle, sfincione, and almond sweets. A journey within the journey, discovering the flavors and scents of Sicily.
The experience has more to offer: the route continues to Capo Rossello, with its lighthouse and the ancient watchtower on Monte Rosso, where you’ll admire breathtaking views and listen to stories of sea, wind, and history.
This is an exclusive small-group experience (maximum 4 participants), designed for those who seek an authentic, elegant, and mindful way to explore Sicily.

Attività perfetta per essere al fresco
L'attività è stata perfetta in tutti i sensi. Innanzitutto il tour ti permette di ammirare alcune delle bontà di Agrigento dal mare. Poi, per queste giornate di caldo è perfetto per combatterlo. L'acqua è fresca e c'è sempre la brezza del mare. Infine, Salvo, la nostra guida è stata eccezionale nella guida e nel spiegarci tutto della costa di Agrigento. Lo consiglio a tutti!
