    Absolutely fantastic tour. Our tour guide was incredible as she had so much knowledge to share with us, she made it fun and engaged with everyone on the tour. She showed us the live dig site where you could see where they were digging up remains of a crushed person. She was so kind and helpful and gave us background on the city’s history, the culture, the people, what they ate, how they lived, and what they believed. Amazing tour! Whole family loved it.
