Sev has deep knowledge about the Vatican and history in general, and presents it in a compelling way. Highly recommended
Thank you for you kind words! I look forward to seeing you on your next trip to Rome! Best wishes! Sev
Sev was absolutely amazing with his knowledge of the artifacts contained it the Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel, and St. Peter’s. His presentation style is a joy to listen to, and he mixes humor in with historic details. He gave us details the entire time and encouraged everyone to ask questions and posed questions to our group of 15 people that I had never thought about before. His knowledge and insightfulness is second to none, and he the best guide ever. I enjoyed every minute of it. Just a great person!
Oh my gosh. Sev deserves to have a bajillion positive reviews on here. We just took his tour today and loved every minute. I was slightly worried I’d be a little bored on such a long tour (art isn’t really my passion), but the stories and explanations given were fabulous. I told my son he’s like Indiana Jones prior to reading the comparison in his bio. My husband and I both highly recommend!
