    Well presented site, with friendly, helpful staff. Absolutely amazing mosaics, one of the best archaeological sites I’ve visited.

    Annoyingly, they were closed when I arrived at 10h15 this morning because “they had a group” - they wouldn’t let me in the museum or see anything at all. If you go, prepare to be disappointed!
