The many different statues inside are quite beautiful. If you know some Western history I think it will be more clear inside. In addition to the statues, there are many beautiful oil paintings.

Julia, the guide, was friendly and helpful. We learnt more about the regions of Umbria and Tuscany after this trip. The view of Civita di Bagnoregio was truly amazing. Though the quality of the lunch was merely acceptable and felt a bit rush during the wine tasting part.

This experience is your window to Rome. The bus will take you to the iconic places. You can hop off whenever you feel like and hop back in to get to another destinations. The bus is clean and comfortable. Our experience was awesome with Rome Big Bus.
