Informative insightful and lovely experience

My family and I did this tour yesterday with Alessia from Eco Art Travel and it was among the best tours weve done here in Italy Alessia is a perfect host and she is extremely informative knowledgeable and has a great sense of humour too We loved the time we spent with her learning so much about the art history culture and even a little bit of the language 1010 would recommend this guided tour with her to anyone

Great tour with Giuseppe

Giuseppe was a great guide Sure u can do this by yourself but at the end of the day youre just looking at status and paintings Our guide was very knowledgeable and explained all the important pieces on display and some of the ones most overlook Do yourself a favour and get a tour from EcoArt You might be lucky enough to get Giuseppe

A MUST DO

If there is one tour I recommend to do when in Rome is this one I went to Rome with my partner and booked many tours and experiences which did not meet our expectations however this one was absolutely amazing Our tour guide was Nicoletta and she was the sweetest kindest most informative person out of all the tours we booked She always made sure everyone was informed she also waited and reminded us to take pictures at specific famous pieces Im not one to write reviews but this specific tour requires a special mention The tour and guide were truly all that you expect and more when booking

Skip the Line tour of Vatican Museums Sistine Chapel and access to doors of St Peters Basilica

Tour went off without a hitch from initial meeting place to end of tour at doors of Basilica Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and kept us together in the huge crowds inside the Museums She filled us with little known information and relatable stories and we came away with a wonderful memory and experience I would highly recommend this tour
