    Doing it when it’s not so hot and for the kids is exhausting. It's too much information in a short time and it barely gives you time to stop. The Goti guide, the worst I've had all trip. Scary, sexist and unpleasant from the get-go

    A disaster from minute one, the lady/guide didn't even want to be there but she was, so the sooner she took it off the better. The excursion was to Vatican and Basilica museums. We were running everywhere, following a woman who kept talking and walking, you didn't even have time to stand and watch anything. We skipped millions of rooms, which I understand because it is huge, but at least, to those we passed, let us see and enjoy them, since it is most likely that I will not see it again, and it was impossible because you lost it among the number of people there. Besides, he explained everything without wanting to, like he was reading a paper. In short, a disaster. I regret taking this guided tour for this price.
