Holy Doors with Francesco - My sister and I are of Italian heritage and have been to Rome many times before. This time we came for the Jubilee. Francesco ,our tour guide, was excellent! He was full of knowledge.We learned a lot about Christianity through these Basilicas and had a chance to go through the Holy Doors. He took his time answering all our questions and gave us time to pray or view. We never felt rushed with Francesco. He had a fun personality so the tour was never boring. He taught us about a Roman Coffee (espresso and zabaglione) which was something new for us. My sister and I highly recommend this tour and Francesco Reo!
