Barbara was a 🌟 star - Barbara was our tour guide on January 31st at 1.30. It was my 60th birthday and I shall never forget it. Barbara wasn't just doing a job she was alive, She was passionate and very informative. We didn't want the tour to stop. It was amazing and one day we would love to return and see the underground/where they kept the animals and poor gladiators.

Good tour. - The guide was good and knowledgeable. The tour was terrific for 1st timers. The only thing is that the receiver died halfway, wish they would charge it full before.
