Our Sansevero Chapel Guided Tour was absolutely exceptional. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and shared fascinating historical insights that brought the art and stories of the chapel to life. We were running late, yet she graciously waited for us and ensured we didn’t miss a thing. Her kindness, patience, and passion made this one of the most memorable and truly spiritual experiences of our entire three-week trip.
