Excellent tour and guide

My husband and I greatly enjoyed this tour from EcoArt led by our friendly guide Yamuna Instructions for the meeting point were easy to follow and our group navigated the multiple checkpoints into the museum quickly considering the very long lines of people wanting to visit the museum The tour commentary was very good and well thought out We especially appreciated Yamunas lively storytelling and knowledge of Italy and art history which brought each artwork or section of the museum to life As expected there were large summer crowds at the Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel and Yamuna did a great job managing our group and getting us from point to point The explanation of Michaelangelos Sistine Chapel ceiling and The Last Judgement in particular were fantastic Thanks for a great tour
