I chose Georgia’s tour based on rating…and I wholeheartedly add my recommendation!! Her passion and knowledge made the tour a great experience. To walk thru the excavation on your own without understanding and appreciating what you’re viewing is a waste, because there are only a few placards (and they don’t offer detailed descriptions). Her knowledge and iPad supplemental pictures were interesting and informative!! She went at our pace and we were very comfortable asking questions. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

Guide Georgia brought the exposed parts of the town to life. She pointed out the “modern” features we did not expect in 3600 year old town. A must see for anyone interested in history or archeology
