We had a really lovely walking tour of Ostia Antica with our guide, Camille. She was one of the best guides we had during our 2 week Italy trip. She was extremely knowledgeable about the archeology and history of Ostia Antica and very personable and friendly. We honestly had so much fun on this tour and enjoyed in more than our trip to Pompeii 2 years ago. The preservation of Ostia Antica is impressive. There's also barely any tourists there compared to Pompeii (so strange)
