Hi Fran, We went on a guided tour at 10.30am on Saturday 5th May. There was another one on later, maybe at 1pm? The guided tour is included in the admission price, and meets inside the courtyard at the western entrance. The other entrance is at the museum end of the site. The tour is conducted by a volunteer, ours was great. I highly recommend a tour! Jayne
