Getting into the ruins ahead of the line was awesome. The line was very long. Our guide Pablo was very good. A wealth of knowledge and patient with answering questions. I’d recommend this wholeheartedly if you like history!

Tour fell a little short of meeting our expectations. Check in was a little slow and somewhat disorganized. The guide was very knowledgeable but his English was perhaps a little weaker than ideal. The 2nd half was better as we became more accustomed to his accent. Lastly, the tapa tasting was very basic and feel short of expectations. Charge another $5 if necessary and raise the quality of the tasting...

OMG… today was wonderful. I booked last night from our cruise ship. Our excursions on the boat were too crowded, too long and not fun. We met Elisa (the perfect guide and so knowledgeable) and she 100% catered to our needs and desires. It was the perfect day. I will use Viator and there sightseeing matchmaking again…. Maybe tomorrow.
An Informative and enjoyable tour.

This is a walking tour around the roman amphitheatre, museum and related ruins. It is not a difficult walk for anyone with mobility issues as there are ramps. The walk is followed by a tapas and drink. Our guide Camello, whose English is very good, was knowledgeable and made the tour more enjoyable by also pointing out & discussing other points of interest on the tour, for example the Central Grand Hotel. If there is anything I would have liked a little bit more information about it was why the Romans and originally arrived and why they left. But that is a small point and I can look it up. We weren't on a cruise liner but had driven up from the Costa Almeria. It was a really good morning which we thoroughly recommend.
