5.00Great experience! We learned so much more than we expected to. Carla was the perfect guide. She was knowledgeable, friendly and let us tour at our desired pace. She is from the area and shared local history as well as the details of the holy shroud and its path to its current resting place. This was a tour that we will never forget.
Private tour, the best way

5.00This was me, my wife and the tour guide. An excellent way to do this so we didn't have to bother with other travelers and all the annoyances that they bring. Made it easy to ask questions and learn. You can also indiviualize the tour to your liking.
I 100% recommend this tour to those who truly follow in the footsteps of Jesus during his ordeal.
