Marco was a great guide. Full of fun tips. The museum was a little bit small. But it was fun. A little expensive but it was worth it

Il sito archeologico è davvero suggestivo e interessante, così come l'antiquarium annesso. Il personale è gentile e molto preparato. Davvero una bella esperienza, che consiglio decisamente.
