Great Experience

Our tour guide Riccardo had a great sense of humour and took his time to speak to every guest to find out where we were visiting from He was extremely personable and his tour of the museum was very informative engaging and memorable He knew when to lighten the mood and how to direct our attention to specific pieces of art within the museum I really enjoyed his tour his humour and his passion for the arts It was a bit difficult to find the meeting spot without access to wifi but another tour company directed me to where the company would be There were a lot of people at the museum at this time and it was very hot but I preferred this over the morning tour

Giulia was fabulous Ask for her

The tour was wonderful Guides were easy to find and friendly and they accommodated our needs graciously We were exhausted by 6PM when our tour started as we had been walking in heat the whole day and our guide understood and tailored the tour to that We saw everything we wanted to see we learned so much and we had a wonderful time I highly recommend this tour and this guide

lots to see

Get there when the food is out. Actually not a bad spread. There were groups coming in so we sat and relaxed in the courtyard. Not very crowded or hot so it was great. Although I should've done some research so I knew what I wanted to look for cause there is so much art to see. We came early and went to see St Peter's Bascillica it is free. Lots of walking so were comfy shoes.
