Fiquei muito satisfeita pois a guia era ótima! Lamentavelmente não consegui um lugar próximo à onde o Papa passou mas isso foi amenizado pelo bom humor e experiencia da nossa guia. E só fiz esse passeio porque era em português.

Our highlight: we spent the time we were in the queue learning about the Vatican and the papal audience which was clarifying and productive. Thank you, guys!
