My father and I did this tour with the fantastic tour guide Marcello

My father and I did this tour with the fantastic tour guide Marcello The areas we got to see were fantastic and the commentary Marcello gave throughout was informative and understandable He had visual prompts he bought with him to show us to help add further detail and he answered all our additional questions At no point did we feel rushed which can be tricky in such a busy museum I would 100 recommend this tour to anyone visiting Rome and hopefully youre lucky enough to get Marcello worth adding I did a similar tour 2 years ago with a different company but this tour was hundreds of times better
