    My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our tour of the Vatican, Sistine Chapel and Raphael rooms. Chiara did a wonderful job teaching us about the art and history of these monuments. She was very professional, knowledgeable and kept my attention. We selected the self guided tour of the colosseum, however, I think it would have been greatly enhanced by a tour guide. Overall it was a great experience.

    Our tour guide, Chiara, was absolutely amazing. Her tour was not only extremely informative, but she was engaging and entertaining to listen to. It was very hot, but the beauty found inside the Vatican made it worth it.
