The Vatican museums are incredible on their own but our experience was absolutely fantastic thanks to our brilliant guide Sarah with EcoArt She added so much depth with her extensive knowledge of the museum and its artwork Very highly recommend her

Exceptional guide Lorena

I hope I can articulate just how excellent this tour was in a way that does it justice Everything about it was great and we must praise Lorena our guide her passion for art and for Rome really enhanced the experience She is extremely knowledgeable and engaging with a sense of humour We are also grateful for her kindness towards my mother who was a little slower at navigating steps by the way any steps were in good condition and had rails its just mum can get a bit hesitant on any steps or stairs I really cant thank Lorena enough I love history but have never been into art but her explanations and enthusiasm have made me plan to learn more about art Shes that good
