Great tour, great tour guide.

jlavan, Jul 2024
Ivano was a wonderful guide. He brought all the history alive and was so knowledgeable. The private tour was really great, and the museum was so much less crowded than all the others but just as interesting. My 15yr old son really loved it. He loves science so this was right up his alley. So many interesting things --well worth the time and money spent. Thanks Ivano!
