We had booked a guided tour (in German). We started the tour on time and were part of a small group. The tour was very informative and engaging. Photos and videos weren’t allowed, but that didn’t matter—it meant we could give the tour guide our full attention. We really enjoyed it and highly recommend the tour.

The guide was very good. Unfortunately, I had bought the ticket to go to San Calixto. It wasn't until I arrived at your office that they told me we wouldn't be going there.
