“I may be spelling Ivan’s (or Evan’s) name incorrectly, but either way—he was absolutely fantastic! His storytelling at Santa Croce was captivating, weaving together the art, architecture, and fascinating stories of the brilliant men—and one remarkable woman, Florence Nightingale—who are buried or memorialized there. He brought these historical figures to life with insight and humor, making the experience both informative and entertaining. I was with my father, who uses a wheelchair, and Ivan was incredibly thoughtful in making sure he was comfortable, included, and able to hear and enjoy the tour. We left smiling from ear to ear and highly recommend this experience.”

You can buy tickets at the basilica for half the price, this is not a busy attraction with no lines. I would not recommend buying tickets from this operator”
