Yacob told the story of Caravaggio in an entertaining way. Even if you don’t know much about art history, the story is interesting and I have many take aways.
Perfect academic knowledge and dynamism. Bringing the best of art history to profanes like us
Very enjoyable tour by Giacopo, with good information.
Consigliatissimo
Excelente. Tour muy especializado.
Very knowledgable and entertaining guide, with useful information in and outside of the tour topics! :)
Jacob was awesome in weaving the entire story and building up the suspense … but most importantly he gave a great insight into the works of Caravaggio and his contemporaries and comparative analysis of his works with other legends… this trip is a must do…
Mac is a fantastic guide! He knows literally everything about everything! He is professional, friendly and intelligent! I love the tour. Highly recommended.
Jacobo is the BEST guide for such kind of art history tours that I have ever been to. It’s really lovely to see him talking about Caravaggio so passionately. He is well-prepared, great in storytelling with lots of interesting facts. Even for me who knows Caravaggio quite a bit before the tour can still learn new things from the tour. I’m sure you won’t be disappointed.
Our second tour with Jacob - we were once again very satisfied with his knowledge and style of presenting information. The tour has a clear subject and is very focused on both art and colorful history of Caravaggio’s life. There is a moment during the tour when you will visit one of the churches to see a Caravaggio’s painting so be prepared to dress accordingly (cover shoulders, etc). Jacob is very charismatic, funny and knowledgeable. He knows how to tell a story and is very helpful in general knowledge of Rome and recommended places to visit/eat. He will answer all your questions.
This was a tour with a difference not just about sightseeing but using the story of Caravaggio’s life to take us to interesting areas of Rome and led by a passionate presenter who held everyone’s attention
Story of Michelangelo is crazy, interesting, funny and the guide knew so Much about art and story, IT was amazing to listen to him!
Jacopo was very entertaining, knowledgeable, engaging, and obviously has a love of the subject matter. We were very impressed with the depth of his knowledge about the artist's life and work, and the history of Rome at that time. He was also very charming and funny, and we really enjoyed the tour.
Jacob was a great guide. He was very knowledgeable and passionate about the subject. The tour was a lot of fun.
This was one o th best GuruWalks I’ve ever taken. Jacobo was brilliant, clearly an expert on the topic, completely engaging and personable. He gave us insights that I don’t think you can get from a book or another tour experience. I learned an incredible amount and also enjoyed the tour thoroughly. I wish it had been longer, in order to learn more from Jacobo. If he has other tours I would certainly take them. He provided a 10-star experience.
i loved the tour experience with Jacobo. He was a great story teller and i really enojyed the unique tour experience of Rome. 5*!
We were so thrilled to be a part of the tour. The story telling of the tour guide was amazing. We loved that the information given to us and the general camaraderie the guide and the group shared. Hoping to do many more if these tours soon. Thank you for a lovely evening.
It was a great tour with a very knowledgeable guide. Two hours passed quickly. I highly recommend it to everybody interested in art and Caravaggio!
Max was a very enthusiastic guide and the tour was entertaining despite the rain. The story was engaging and it was interesting to not only learn about Carvaggio, but what was taking place at that time. It was a fun way to learn about a specific point in history even if there appeared to be a share of myth and legends intertwined.
Max was a great tour guide! My friend and I really felt like we were listening to an audiobook the way he conveyed the story and took us about the sites! (21M and 25F - Great for young peeps)
