Today I took the private tour of the Vatican Museums and St. Peter's Basilica with Luciana, and the experience was incredible. From the very first moment, she was very kind, warm, and professional. Her enormous knowledge about every corner, the history, and the art is evident, but what stood out the most was her ability to convey it in a clear and interesting way. Thanks to Luciana, I not only visited incredible places, but I was also able to truly understand their historical and artistic importance. He answered my questions with great patience and enthusiasm, making the experience very complete and personalized. I recommend this tour and especially Luciana as a guide to anyone who wants to have a unique and unforgettable experience.

Luciana was a pure pleasure. We all had so much fun on our tour with her. She is truly a "walking encyclopedia" and we learned so much. You cannot go wrong in selecting her as a tour guide.
Great tour highly recommend doing it this way as privately gave you so much more than in a group. Our guide was fantastic pace and knowledge.
