Amazing! I am a big fan of Caravaggio now ^^ Beautiful paints, amazing story telling, and a grasp of what Rome was in the 1600s!

It was an incredible experience. I am so glad to have joined in this tour. There were so many hidden gems in the city that we were passing by without even knowing. Excellent storytelling and very friendly guide. Highly recommended.

This was a fascinating walk. Joey was very knowledgeable and we really enjoyed his detailed explanations about the paintings and techniques as well as the background stories about Caravaggio’s life. This is a hugely enjoyable walk and is highly recommended.

Joey is a master storyteller and his tour is so far the best I've done in Rome (and I've done a few!). In fact, is one of the top three I've ever done in my life (and I've done a freaking lot). His passion for Caravaggio, his way of unfolding the story, his way of helping you look into this artist's paintings, personality and epoch made the time fly. 100% recommended! Also he knows about a great place where to have the aperitivo after the tour!

It was a very original tour, led by the charismatic and engaging Joey. He brought a contagious love for Caravaggio's work to the experience. I was lucky to find this tour after my original booking got canceled on the same day. Joey's passion and storytelling made the tour unforgettable and a definite highlight of my visit. Highly recommend for art lovers wanting an enjoyable exploration of Caravaggio's art and life.

Joey have a great and deep knowledge of Caravaggio's life, art and technic and all this vizualized with a historical perspectiv as background. The whole tour with Joey was a presentation and performace full of passion that makes him an "Al Pacino" among guides. My wife and I have done free walking tours in 13 countries and 17 cities both in Europe and US together with about 200 subjects. We are proud to say: this Caravaggio walking tour with Joey was indeed unic and will remain in our mind as the best of the best.

This tour was so much fun! I am not into art... really have only heard of Caravaggio because I have read every Daniel Silva book, but this tour made art fun. We absolutely loved the information about the art that was presented in a way that made someone not interested in Baroque art was suddenly engage. The 2 hour tour went by so fast, and I gained an appreciation for some that had previously eluded me. Highly recommended.
