Great time

Rosalba was amazing at what she does It was great to hear her perspective and the history of the Vatican the popes and the artists I learned things I hadnt before and skipping the line was absolutely worth it She made the time for everyone to take pictures showed up in person close up pictures of art and the sistine chapel and was clear and concise in her directions I would love to take a tour with her and her team again worth every penny
