    we got the guided tour thinking we wanted to know the history. We were rushed around the site and for most of the tour we couldn't hear the guy as he kept speeding off and the headset kept losing connection. We struggled to keep up. Its a shame because we really did want to have time to process ever

    Although we booked a later trip we were brought forward to an early trip as explained in the pre-booking blurb. Details on pick up were clear to the point we had vehicle colour, registration and driver's name in advance of the pick up. All worked well.

    Only thing stopping an excellent is ths speed you go through. I understand thousands of people go through every day, but it would have been nice to take a bit more in a bit more stock of the feeling of the place. The tour guide was very informative and knowledgeable. Apart from the fast pace it was.
