    Le visite con Claudia, sono delle vere e proprie immersioni nel passato. I suoi racconti e le descrizioni sono sempre molto dettagliate e documentat,e ma nello stesso tempo risultano chiare e comprensibili anche per chi si avvicina alla storia passata per la prima volta. Durante le visite si spazia da racconti mitologici e leggende, fino a riti ed eventi storici : battaglie,intrighi amorosi, usi e costumi della cultura e spiritualità antica. Ho partecipato a diverse visite sia in spazi esterni che nei musei piu' significativi della Capitale. Fino ad ora non ho avuto occasione di partecipare alle sessioni di acquerello, ma prima o poi provero' anche questa esperienza.

    abbiamo trascorso una bellissima mattinata con Claudia percorrendo a piedi un lungo tratto dell'Appia antica che conserva sempre il suo fascino millenario. Claudia è stata una guida molto esaustiva, da archeologa qual'è è riuscita a catturare l'attenzione anche dei più giovani, unendo alla sua simpatia e preparazione anche divertenti aneddoti e curiosità sulla Roma antica. Interessantissima la parte della visita all'interno delle Catacombe di San Callisto. Per mancanza di tempo abbiamo preferito saltare la sessione di acquarello anche perché stava venendo a piovere.. il tour si può effettuare quindi anche senza la parte artistica ma resta sempre molto interessante e consigliatissimo! sicuramente ci rivolgeremo nuovamente a Claudia per effettuare qualcun altro dei suoi tours a piedi a Roma e dintorni.

    Grazie Jak . Sei stato un ospite meraviglioso e molto interessato all'archeologia della magnifica Appia Antica! Scommetto che quello che ti e' piaciuto di piu' sono stati i magnifici affreschi delle catacombe di San Callisto e anche il pranzo di autentica cucina romana alle catacombe di San Callisto!

    Meravigliosa esperienza artistica ed escursionistica, luoghi unici che, vissuti nel modo giusto, con tempo e attenzione a disposizione, diventano un esperienza veramente indimenticabile.
    Lo stage di pittura ad acquarello permette ad ogniuno di esprimere la sua propria sensibilità artistica.
