I cannot stand tour groups and by 10:30 it was packed with buses and people. I took the shuttle bus (every 30mins) ascended the hill to the site. It was very impressive. For me, it was a great detour… Full review by coconutugly

Another fine stop on your tour of Greek antiquities around Sicily. This park is small and manageable but still worth taking the shuttle bus between the temple and the theatre. Gorgeous views from the… Full review by Waterloonie
How long should we allow to see the Archeologic Park at Segesta? We will be short on time. We are driving from Palermo to Menfi and would like to stop at Monreale, Erice, and Segesta. Does anybody have a sense of whether or not it is realistic to make all of those stops in one day?

We did Erice and Segesta in the same day, and definitely could've done Monreale as well. Monreale is gorgeous, but as long as you see the cathedral and cloisters, which could take about an hour, you would've seen the important sights. Erice would definitely take longer, but with the most amount of churches in such a small town, you should choose before hand which ones you want to see, and get to those. Don't get the all-day entry pass, since they all close at different times (for siesta too) and some of them were closed completely for renovations. They don't tell you that when you purchase the ticket. You can pay entry at each church, and the prices range from €2-€10. You really just want to see Il Duomo and then walk around the town to the Giardini del Balio and castle for the views. (I reviewed both). Segesta is an easy stop, and definitely worth it. The temple is in beautiful condition and so is the theatre at the top of the hill. For €6, take the shuttle up there for quickness. I believe it runs every 30mins. Have a great time! Wish I was still there!
