We enjoyed an excellent tour of the Major Papal Basilicas and Holy Doors. Our guide, Dimitri, co-founder of More of Rome, was a wealth of information; he was enthusiastic and passionate about the Basilicas - their history, the architecture, and all the major artifacts. Dimitri also gave us great insights on the early Church in Rome and Ancient Rome. He efficiently moved us between the Basilicas by taxi, reducing the amount of walking. We even had time for a restroom break and a visit to the gift shop. Dimitri also shared his experience living in Rome and provided some good dining tips. My husband and I were pleasantly surprised that we were the only two on the tour, and thankful it was not cancelled. We highly recommend this tour to those who want an in depth tour of the Basilicas.
