- Passeio incrível, bem organizado e monitora excelente! Uma aula de história ao vivo!!
- Vale muito a pena conhecer os lugares "escondidos" dessa construção histórica. Gostei muito!! A guia Juliana Mendes foi muito gentil. Apenas uma atenção: como tem muitos degraus ao longo do passeio, para quem tem dificuldade ou algum problema para subir e descer escadas, pode ser um pouco complicado e o passeio ficar comprometido.
- Experiência ótima
- Foi maravilhoso
- Excelente, apenas achei que podia ter mais tempo na cripta, já que havia uma exposição temporária sobre o Sudário.
- Excelente, adorei
- Incrível! Super completo
- A Juliana guia foi muito atenciosa muito bom cada detalhe
- Grata surpresa!
