Amazing tour. Tour guide was a teacher of classical history so her insights were great and presented in a way that we weren't too overwhelming. Highly recommend.

Meet up spot was easy to find and our guide was incredibly knowledgeable! It’s quite a hike to the top so bring a bottle of water, wear good shoes and you should be in somewhat decent shape.

We loved the tour guide and the overall experience. Despite starting at 9am it was already very busy so it was a challenge to get great photos but that’s understandable. What an amazing structure to see! Our 5 through 10 year olds loved the tour as well and had no problems walking on their own. Our guide did great making sure no one got lost in the crowds. Thank you!!
