This unfinished fifth-century Doric temple has everything but a roof and an interior, and the huge structure seems unaffected by time. A small theater atop a nearby hill offers visitors a stunning view of green hills and the deep blue hues of the sea below.

I visited the Segesta Site yesterday the 18th of June 2019. I had read all the whining reviews about the free car park at entrance that drivers were being directed away from, and decided to test this. I drove straight to the front gate of the site carpark. I was stopped by a uniform security guard... This car park at site entrance is for disabled drivers or archaeological site staff and is also the drop off point for the shuttle bus. all the cars parked here have staff or disabled passes displayed on their dashboards. I was then politely directed to the tourist carpark at bottom of hill. The facilities at the car park (toilets etc.) are free and clean. 5 euros to park car, free bus shuttle to (and return) site entrance every 15 mins (prompt) 6 euros per person entrance to the site, the temple is a 250m short walk from entrance, the amphitheatre is a long slog up a winding road, you would be mad not to take the theatre shuttle which is only 1.50 euro a person each way. and again runs back and forth about every 15 mins.. The amphitheatre is fabulous and provides a wonderful view, there are also other fascinating ruins dotted about the hillside. The Temple at the bottom of hill is breath-taking and wonderfully preserved, this area is a must see if you are holidaying local. The site was immaculately clean, there are bins for different variations of rubbish everywhere. The tourist car park, the shuttle and the site were efficiently run and clean, the staff were friendly … using all available shuttles, you can (at a leisurely amble) see everything in under 3 hours. ------- reviewers should check their facts before making false and stupid statements that could affect local’s livelihood! --------------

My wife and I visited the Teatro Greco di Segesta with a private small Group Tour (11 of us) and a English speaking guide. Our Guide was a wealth of information. The theatre of Segesta is from about fourth century BC (some sources place it at the second century BC) It islocated at the top of Mount Barbaro in the direction opposite to the temple. The theatre of Segesta held a maximum of 4000 spectators. The architectural characteristics of the theatre is a Greek theatre but its style differs from the usual structure of Greek theatres, because the tiers of seats do not rest directly on the rock, but were specially built with two entrances.

We travel only by bus and train. It's really hard to get timetable information in western Sicily. Here is a great half day trip from Scopello, available from June to September. The Tarantola bus departs the Scopello bus stop at the entrance to the old town promptly at 9.10 am and travels to Castellommare del Golfo (it also picks up passengers here: at the main bus station and outside the Tarantola company bus depot). It then proceeds directly to the entrance to the archaeological park at Segesta, arriving at about 10am. The same bus returns to Scopello, departing the archaeological park at 12.20 pm. The fare is 4.80 euro return. The bus is air conditioned. You have more than two hours to explore the marvellous theatre, ruins and temple. There is a little bar for coffee and food. It's an amazing, comfortable, half day excursion at low cost. There is a second bus that departs from Scopello at 15.10, returning from Segesta with a departure at 17.50. This would leave a little less time for the visit to the archaeological park.
