Great 4.5 hour walking...
Great 4.5 hour walking tour. Wear comfortable shoes. In the summer it is hot so be prepared with water. Our tour guide, Eli, is adorable, comedic and knowledgeable. She is also accommodating by allowing tonstop in shaded areas or purchase water,

Tour guide was attentive and knowledgeable. We really appreciated the tour guides willingness to let us join another tour group so as not to repeat a previous tour.

  • Wear comfortable, nonslip shoes to traverse the steps and the often-wet ground.

  • The entrance for wheelchair users and other visitors with mobility challenges is at the cistern’s exit.

  • As the cistern is underground, the setting is damp and cool. Take a layer if you don’t want to feel the chill.
