Our tour guide, Debra was incredible. A rock star! Knew everything, everyone, and all of the best spots. Wouldn't go to the Vatican without her.
Best Tour Guide Ever
Harvey_B
I’ve been on this tour before with a small group, but this time felt completely new and different. Maggie, our truly exceptional tour guide, was so very passionate about the Rome, Vatican, the museums, the Basilica, and everything within. Even though there were tens of thousands of people all around us, it felt like my wife and I were alone. Maggie was so attentive, but more importantly, she was super informative with fascinating stories and details. In fact, she was so fascinating that I forgot to even take pictures most of the time we were in St. Peter’s Basillica. I would HIGHLY recommend the private tour. Again, it felt like we were moving at our own pace, seeing more, and hearing more details.
Arnaldo is the best
Tod_O
Arnaldo was an excellent guide! Highly recommend him. Only reason I don’t give 5 Stars is the expense for only 90 minutes
