  • Great theatres, great museum, great view, great place overall. Cheap museum (4€/person) but with more to see than most have energy for. Excellent exhibition with one small exception and that is very small signs and not consistent in english. The theatres outdoor may be missing a lot of structures compared to for an example the theater in Orange but you can still imagine the grandeur they once had. Overall a must visit if you like history/Roman time
  • Absolutely great experience! Very big museum with a lot to see. Very cheap under 18 is free adults is 4 euros. I can definitely recommend this museum to anyone that is in the area. The building is inside the mountain and is designed in a very interesting way.
