Our exclusive tour will take you inside rarely seen rooms of this UNESCO World Heritage Site, guided by Carmen Rioja, who led the recent restoration of the sanctuary’s magnificent frescoes.
Afterward, we’ll visit a nearby glass etching and handmade candle factory, where you’ll witness the artistry and skill behind these exquisite handcrafted pieces.
