Great to have a Luca as knowledgeable guide explaining the history behind the ruins and the landscape left over from quarrying. This added enormously to the benefit we got from the visit. It was hot and sunny so great Luca was also good at finding shaded places where he could talk to us.

The tour was really good and very interesting. The guide was brilliant, she took the time to explain everything and answer questions. She also stopped for an extra chat at the end of the tour which was really interesting.
