We loved our experience and we appreciated our guide. So well organized and planned. Serena is extremely knowledgeable, personable, and well spoken. It was a fantastic Tour
Wonderful venues, great guide!
Mechelle_M
This was a great tour. Serena was a wonderful guide who helped us get around and see the amazing things in the different venues. Unfortunately the dome was closed because there was a Swiss guard change in duties that was going on at the time, it was still a wonderful experience. It would have been nice to know that once done we could have stayed longer in the museum, but I had scheduled another tour and couldn't stay. This is an all day tour. We had great lines compared to the summer that could potentially take many more hours. Great experience.
Yanira is the best!
