The groups are reasonably sized - if there are more people, it seems the company organizes more guides instead of packing everyone into one. The meeting point was easy to find, the closest entrance to the train station. Personally I found difficult to listen the guide through an earphone so I stayed closer to catch the speaking without it but was still useful when wondered a bit away. Our guide - Andrea - was good, and he was able to answer questions about further historical details. The pace and the quality was also good, the tour lasted a bit over 2 hours. It is sort of difficult to pick the most interesting parts of the ancient city, but he managed to show some real highlights within relatively short time. The only issue that the explanations were often linked to modern life (like references to countries that did not existed that time or American fastfood chains). Be prepared to bring water and snacks in case, but be aware no restrooms on the way. Highly recommended.

It was amazing our guide had all the little details and was able to keep us engaged. It was very personal which was just a cherry on top of an already amazing tour and tour and tour guide.
