Belle visite avec un guide passionné et compétent

On apprécie le coupefile quand on voit le monde et les files dattente Sergio nous guide à travers la foule et les salles avec des explications didactiques et quelques anecdotes distrayantes tout en veillant à lintégrité de son groupe ce qui est loin dêtre facile je vous lassure Nous partons des musées Vatican en direction de la chapelle Sixtine puis la basilique SaintPierre quil nous laisse visiter seuls Cette visite nest quun apéritif tellement il y a des choses à voir et peu de temps pour sattarder A faire refaire et avec Sergio sans hésitation
