    I love the whole experience and doing the tour with otehr people. It was amazing to finally see Michealangelo's Obra Maestra, DAVID. The tour guide is very knowledgeable and has sense of humor which I think is a very important skill to embody so the participants will have fun at the same time.

    It was very easy to locate the group and they were very kind. Unfortunately I selected with audio guide and it was not easy, the next one will be with a guide in Spanish, but the service is excellent and recommendable.
