Wonderful experience to see the Bernini scum tutors and other work here - our guide Virginia was very nice, engaging, and knowledgeable. It was an absolute treat to experience this art with her, we got so much more out of it than if we had just went on our own. Highly recommended and very much worth it. Thank you Virginia!

Grazie all’operatrice del call center è stato possibile trovare una soluzione di sabato pochi giorni quando era tutto sold out. L’organizzazione e la guida sono stati impeccabili

Response from Host, Nov 2024

Grazie mille per il tuo feedback! Siamo felici di sapere che l'operatrice del call center è riuscita a trovare una soluzione in un momento così difficile, soprattutto di sabato e con tutto esaurito. Siamo lieti che l’organizzazione e la guida abbiano reso l’esperienza impeccabile. Speriamo di poterti accogliere nuovamente per altre esperienze memorabili!
