Jacopo is a great guide! He was so charismatic and knowledgeble that we immediately asked him what tour he is doing next and booked it right away. He answered all questions thoroughly. The tour was very interesting and informative, giving you an unique pespective of the life and work of Caravaggio.

What an amazing tour we had with Jacopo. He was incredibly well-informed and super interesting. My two teenaged sons were enthralled too--not an easy thing for a tour guide to pull off. Thank you for the fabulous tour!

Jacobo organized the tour in an excellent way. He has two goals for the audience in mind : to present the artistic talent of Caravaggio and to show the human side of the him. He accomplishes both in a very entertaining and informative way. Jacobo is very patient, approachable and extremely knowledgeable. Highly recommended!!!

An amazing tour - the guide (Jacapo) kept our group entertained and told Caravaggio's story in a way that kept your attention. I love how it was all brought together in the end. There was some difficulty keeping the group together at the first church, which caused a little confusion, but it was not the guide's fault at all. Overall I can definitely recommend this tour!

Simone is excellent in sharing information about the life and death of Caravaggio. He is interactive and informative at the same time. Would recommend this tour if you are interested to know Michaelangelo Merisi as a person and as a painter.

I had a great time on Ivan’s “Who Killed Caravaggio?” walking tour. Ivan clearly loves the painter, and that passion came through in every stop and story. He managed to pack in tons of fascinating details about Caravaggio’s life and art without it ever feeling like a dry history lesson. Instead, he wove the tumult, mystery, and drama of Caravaggio’s world into the walk in a way that felt like we were piecing together a living, breathing story. The places we visited were so well chosen — each one felt like a perfectly framed backdrop to the narrative he was building. Between the beauty of the works we saw, the streets we wandered, and Ivan’s gift for storytelling, the whole experience was entertaining, engaging, and memorable. If you’re curious about Caravaggio — or just want a lively tour that blends art, history, and intrigue — I can’t recommend this enough. Ivan recommended some books for me to read which I can’t wait to crack into!

Learnt so much about Caravaggio that I never knew! Ivan was informative and passionate and pointed out bits and pieces throughout the city that I would have completely overlooked. A really cool little history lesson on Caravaggio!
