To many people to appreciate the art. Always in a moving line. Would not do it again. What else can I say.

Can not recommend Alex highly enough. Excellent, informative, punctual. Always kept the group together and made sure we didn’t miss anything, despite being cattle herded through to the Sistine chapel. Even blagged us a short cut through the crowds. Just wish we’d booked the same company for our Colosseum tour!
