The Roman walking tour was really interesting and it was great to see parts of the wall that we would never have known about. Our guide was really knowledgeable and she did a great job.

Excellent and informative tour. Our guide Julius brought the Roman world to life through his excellent knowledge and also a few props. Even the persistent drizzle did not dampen his or our small group’s spirits.
