    Our tour guide, Maurizio, was knowledgeable about the Vatican and the museums. He knows so much history and little stories we never would have known. He added so much to our tour. Also, since I am handicapped, he was able to get us access to elevators instead of my having to climb stairs. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our private tour. We would 1000% recommend it.
