Es muy IMPORTANTE que acudan a esta parada antes de la hora seleccionada, ya que el bus no parará un minuto más de la hora de salida (sale muy puntual). Le recomendamos que acuda con unos 10 minutos de antelación. Allí encontrará a nuestros compañeros con el paraguas naranja. Visitaremos el museo, que se encuentro en el centro de visitantes, y el yacimiento. Para llegar hasta el yacimiento, utilizaremos un bus lanzadera (de estos gastos se hará cargo el guía ya que están incluidos en la visita). El orden de la visita puede variar dependiendo de las normas impuestas por el monumento.
