<p>Very worthwhile experience with a brilliant guide like Marta! Made it interesting without becoming boring. The tour had the right duration. I took this tour especially to visit the Pantheon, but the church of Santa Maria was shuch unexpected surprise: amazing paintings and sculptures. Marta pointed out little things one would never have noticed on her own. Really worth it!</p>
