Emiglio is an extraordinary guide! His passion for Caravaggio and deep knowledge of Roman art and history made our private tour unforgettable. We visited three churches to see Caravaggio’s works up close, and he even surprised us with a visit to Rome’s first public library, where we got to see a 16th-century book. Truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience—grazie mille, Emiglio!
