10 thumbs up from the Americans! - Our guide was thoughtful with her descriptions and entertained so many questions. I’m really glad we used TripAdvisor to book, skip the line, and then have the personalized experience. We watched the movie Gladiator when we got back that night.

Recommended - It was very interesting. The teens (16 and 12 years old) liked it a lot. Interesting things were shown and told. We especially liked the fact that we didn’t have to queue in the long line (even for October).
