Exceptional Experience Best tour of Rome so far

ECO tours was exceptionally efficient and professional Laura was a wonderful tour guide A wealth of knowledge and witty Very patient and quick to react to changes and challenges with grace and understanding A member of our group lost her purse but she improvised in order to maintain the tour Luckily the purse was recovered The door from the Sistine Chapel to St Peters Basilica was closed to the public for periods of time She tried her best but was unable to gain access due to Vatican activity We parted ways at the Sistine Chapel and she came back and found each member of the group minutes later in the crowd to bring us back as the door had opened We will book with Laura for other tours

Great tour

This was a great tour that covered some really interesting areas of the Vatican Museum as well as the Sistine Chapel Our guide Fabio was very knowledgeable and made the tour both interesting and fun We were only in Rome for a short time so this gave us a great overview but you could spend at least a whole day inside if you wanted to see everything We booked a late afternoon tour so couldnt see StPeters Basillica but with hindsight wish we had booked something earlier so that we could have covered this too Overall a great experience that we would recommend
