I had a really fantastic time on the City Lights tour with Sean, and our wonderful tour guide Alessandra. A former journalist, she is a font of information - able to answer all the questions you need. Alongside this, she is very approachable, and really appears to enjoy what she is doing. The tour is just perfect for someone who realistically had only one day to explore the Vatican City, as I did. It was smaller then many other tours, although still a similar price, which made it yet more enjoyable too. Rather than meeting at the regular spot, we were asked to meet outside a cafe which made it far easier - and allowed us to get a quick Espresso whilst I waited! Very welcome. If you head to the Vatican City and need a tour, book this one. Highly recommended :-)

Ο Sean με βοήθησε σε ό,τι χρειάστηκα και η επικοινωνία μαζί του ήταν άμεση κι εύκολη. Ο ξεναγός μας ο Arnaldo ήταν από τους καλύτερους που έχω συναντήσει, είχε απίστευτες γνώσεις πάνω στα πάντα και κατάφερνε να στα μεταφέρει με τον πιο διασκεδαστικό τρόπο. Θα τους αναζητήσω ξανά σίγουρα την επόμενη φορά!
