Grazie Mille Oscar and EcoArt

We were part of a small 10 person Vatican tour with Oscar He was a fabulous guide He navigated our group easily and efficiently throughout the very crowded Vatican Museum and prepped us well for both the visits to the Sistine Chapel as well as St Peters Basilica Oscar was knowledgeable and directed our attention to significant and interesting history and art He also tactfully addressed fellow tourists who werent respecting the space We would highly recommend EcoArt tours and Oscar Grazie Mille

Incredibly well organized and insightful tour of the Borghese Gallery

The entire tour went off without a hitch and I could not recommend more highly The guide Irene was very knowledge and her enthusiasm for the history of the museum and its artworks was infectious I was able to snag a spot 2 days in advance as the tour I had booked with another company 7 months prior changed my entry time last minute Definitely book with EcoArt

Highly Recommend Laura for a Memorable Vatican Tour

We had a wonderful experience with our guide Laura She brought us through the Vatican Museum and the Sistine Chapel sharing so many fascinating details along the way Before visiting St Peters Basilica on our own she gave us a rich overview that made the experience even more meaningful Laura was engaging informative and had a great sense of humour that kept the tour lively and enjoyable Id highly recommend her to anyone visiting the Vatican

BHORGHESE GALLERY GUIDED TOUR IN ENGLISH

I am a 39 years old girl interested in art but not an expert in any case The guided tour through Bhorghese Gallery was absolutelly worth it Irene is an excellent guide she was so comitted in making the visit both very enjoyable and interesting selecting pieces otherwise would have been passed by and explaining such interesting facts It was so beautifully and gracefully done also with sense of humour The visit didnt seem to last enough when it ended we were all so captivated by her explanations and by the beauty of the gallery I absolutely reccomend it altough the price is high If you can choose the 9 am tour because it is usually less crowded and ask for Irene She has a special sensibility that made the visit a delight
