Amazing

This tour was excellent The preliminary information shared by EcoArt was timely and very clear We were met exactly where and when they said and linked up with our guide Fabrizio who was extremely personable witty and obviously extremely knowledgeable and passionate about both his country and his subject of this tour the Vatican He was very aware of our groups comfort and needs assuring we all had ample time to see and hear as much as we could in the time we had At one point we halted outside the Sistine Chapel so that he could describe what we were about to see inside and its importance to better able us to understand the absolute magnificence of the art and heritage within I was awed by this tour and regretted not having more time to spend taking in the splendor and history in front of me Thank you Fabrizio
