All of it. the whole experience was nice. getting to see Rome from above to seeing the Basilica from the inside. Time flew by. just an enjoyable experience.
Our guide was very kind. We had lost the group from the meeting point but we found her and she accept us immediately and guide us appropriately. Such a nice experience. Highly recommended.
