The secrets of the great masters

I really enjoyed the cut of this tour. Instead of locking yourself in a museum, you walk through Rome discovering masterpieces embedded in the fabric of the city. The narrative about the rivalry between Bernini and Borromini and the analysis of Caravaggio's revolutionary painting were the best part. It is a tour that nourishes the mind and eyes.
