    The guide goes too fast and does not allow time to appreciate the museum properly.

    A visit a little fast for as much as there is to see, but the explanations were very good.

    Entering the Pio Clementino museum is like being in a medieval movie. I have never enjoyed a tour as much as this one, one of the best experiences of my life. To repeat in the future.

    Beautiful tour, I went with my children and they kept asking the guide, very patient on his part and very good treatment with the children. It was Saturday and there were a lot of people.
