We appreciated the chance to dive deep into Rubens’ masterpieces, especially when standing before his stunning altarpiece that left us in awe of its grandeur. However, while our guide was engaging, there were moments when we felt a bit rushed through some of the iconic sites, leaving us wanting more time to absorb the beauty around us.
