Fantastico Fabio

Me and My Dad went and our guide was Fabio Fabio was absolutely fantastic to be around with a great energy and an astounding knowledge of the place He showed great humour throughout while also providing an astonishing amount of information while walking backwards most the time might I add He seemed to know the details of the halls and chapel like the back of his hand and made the time fly by while keeping everyone entertained I highly suggest a trip to see some some of the magnificent paintings and sculptures of Ancient Rome and the broader Mediterranean and remember what happens in the Sistine Chapel stays in the Sistine Chapel

Vatican Museum Sistine Chapel

Amazing tour Oscar was our guide He was friendly and knowledgeable He didnt recite facts he told stories about all of the pieces that he pointed out I felt like the information was coming from someone who truly appreciated all of this magnificent artwork I learned a lot of things about Michelangelo that Ive never knew before The group size was 10 people Perfect for him to keep track of in a crowded area We had a great experience
