    Nice, unhindered visit, but a ticket cut out for the girl doesn't mean you get in any quicker, as you have to go and do the girl to get a ticket!

    Easy to obtain the auduoguide, it had plenty of information recorded, 360 views, and, after completing the route, it had loads of additional information. Allows you to explore the place in your own speed.

    A unique experience to see how was the life of the Romans at that time... Very surprising the state of everything and the good work of restoration.

    Excellent to learn about the people who lived there before the current one. The cultural richness that the ancient inhabitants left behind configures a unique culture...

    Electronic tickets can be used directly at the entrance, with no need to exchange them at the cash desk. With the audioguides, the tour of the site is complete and the explanations useful. The walk back to the train station may seem long after the site visit.
