Tuve la oportunidad de que Laura fuera quien me diera mi visita por los Museos Vaticanos, Capilla Sixtina y Basílica de San Pedro, quedé fascinada, nuestra guía fue excelente, sabe mucho y se detuvo a explicarnos las partes mas importantes. Quizá en algunos trayectos me hubiera gustado tener más tiempo para disfrutar lo que estaba viendo, pero en general estoy completamente satisfecha 🙂
Gracias por todo 🙂
