Morning at the Castle. - We did this tour as we missed it last time in Rome. Small group and knowledgeable guide, good pace that caterers well for most. Lots of stairs. Enjoyed the history and view as well as the displays. We had drinks afterwards to enjoy the view at the cafe for a while. Good tour would recommend.
