Amazing tour/tour guide - Fabricio and the driver were on time, in spite of the horrible traffic. It was an enjoyable tour bc Fabricio was so knowledgeable about the history of the Basilica. He gave us plenty of time to spend at each spot and was kind enough to take pictures. He even gave us a little concert in one of the chapels to illustrate the acoustics. He has a beautiful baritone. Love this tour, highly recommend Fabricio.

Nice excursion but you can improve the times - Excellent guide who made the excursion with a lot of knowledge, attentive, respectful and good humor. It only seems to me that you can optimize the times by devoting more to places to visit than to stop in shops to buy things. There is no relation to being in a business in front of the Basilica for 20 minutes and having 50 minutes to travel. Greetings
