There is a reason why Dino is so highly rated. He is the best. We did his Vatican Tour and I can't imagine that any living being could do a better job. He was not only accommodating and personable, but his knowledge of the Vatican is off the charts. Laura and I thank you again Dino- Viktors R. USA
It is difficult to imagine visiting the Vaican without a guide, and now that we have toured with Dino, we are so glad we visited there with him! He is well organized and a vast storehouse of knowledge. The tour was entertaining and informative. Dino speaks English fluently, clearly loves what he does, and was so pleasant and helpful, we would give him more stars if we could- Barbara B., USA
Dino was amazing! We bypassed all the lines. He gave us an in-depth history of the Vatican as well as the art. He used pictures of the Sistine Chapel ceiling to give us things to look for and to understand the paintings since you can not talk inside the chapel. Don't even try to see the Vatican without a guide, you will miss so much. I highly recommend DIno! - Frances A. United Kindgom
Dino greeted us at our hotel, provided a brief overview in English to the scheduled tour for the day, and then directed us a to a taxi to the Vatican City. The tour was for myself and my 16-year-old daughter. We bypassed the HUGE lines thanks to Dino and then went inside. He provided an informative summary on the Vatican's history before taking us through the highlights of the museums, through the Sistine Chapel, St. Peter's Basilica, and outside. Very efficient, thorough, and highly recommended Rusty B., Canada
