Great tour

Thomas_S, Sep 2024

My wife and I had a great tour of the Vatican Museum, Cistine chapel and St. Peter’s Basilica. Our tour guide, Maximo did a great job. He presented detailed information on all the sites we visited. He gave us a little more time in the Etruscan museum which we wanted to see. Thanks for the great tour and expert guide!
