Passionate Engaging and Informative

Oscar combined friendliness with practicality and professionalism from the start He was considerate giving clear instructions for the best experience His knowledge flowed seamlessly down every corridor and round every corner where he chatted endlessly about the breathtaking history all around us and the exquisite pieces of art spiking our senses with his engaging passion for the Vatican Museums and the Sistine Chapel The perfect balance of information with a sprinkling of respectful humour warmth and quirky stories ensured we were entertained and educated Without his narration the experience would not have retained its sparkle for a number of hours My only complaint is with you Trip Advisor as I clicked on the link to write my review wrote it was asked to sign in to complete it apparently put in the wrong password had to reset it and sign back in only to find that my original review which was much longer was missing I havent got time to try to recreate it so the above is a much shorter version

Wonderful Engaging Tour with Assunta

Assunta was an amazing guide She was so passionate about the art and history of the Vatican popes chapel and especially Michelangelo Despite the fact that we were the last tour of the day she presented to us like she had just come back refreshed from a weekend away Her voice and expressive eyes kept our rapt attention She was quite sensitive to the needs of our group not missing a beat for some to use the restrooms while others continued the tour uninterrupted Importantly she kept a watchful eye to ensure none were lost when separated by other groups We left her care to a wonderful evening of discussion and a desire to go home and learn more about this magnificent treasure
