Spiro was absolutely fantastic!! His enthusiasm and knowledge made this tour a fun and great learning experience! I highly recommend!!
This tour was great. Our guide, Spiro, was one of the best of the art tours we have done. He was very knowledgeable and humorous. Rather than just doing a rote tour, he was very interested in what we were hoping to see and made sure he included it.
Mandy was Super friendly and knowledgeable!
