Excellent - highly recommend

Booked this tour via Expedia and couldn’t have asked for better - our guide Jeanette was excellent - knowledgeable, enthusiastic and very engaging- not easy to keep 2 teenage boys engaged for a 3 hr history tour but Jeanette managed it effortlessly and everyone in our party of 6 thought the tour and guide were excellent

Felix, our guide was amazing and wonderful! He taught us so many things and answered all of our questions. He kept us informed at every corner! The history came alive for us and we enjoyed our tour.

The Vatican and Sistine Chapel

Laura our guide was amazing as was Paolo who greeted us at our meeting point before the tour - Laura took us around the Vatican and Sistine Chapels and was very knowledgeable in her submit - she answered all our questions clearly and concisely and was very enthusiastic - many rooms that are not usually open were open on the day we visited so we felt very lucky to see some sites that are not available to the public on a daily basis - the skip the line option was worth every penny as we flew through the queues with no stress - I wouldn't hesitate to recommend EcoArt to any friends and family and would use them again if i return to Rome.. Thank you for a great experience.

Magical Tour

Our tour was truly the experience of a life-time and Felix was the sole reason that we were able to see, hear, smell, (sometimes) touch and learn our way throughout these breathtaking surroundings. He has an intimate sense of art history... and an innate ability to "express" to you what you are seeing. The fact that he easily tracked and guided our motley crew in amongst the throng of history worshippers suggests he will make a fine mother one day, lol. Kia ora (good health) bro, we owe you a drink - Alaina and Jake AAA+
