입구에서 스태프 소통이 약간 혼잡했지만, 전반적으로 가이드분이 잘 도와주셔서 괜찮았어요.
كانت عملية الدخول سلسة نسبيًا، رغم وجود صف انتظار بسيط. ربما كان من الأفضل بعض التوضيح الإضافي من المرشد حول توقيت العودة.
The guided tour was enjoyable, particularly the choral performance; it was simply stunning. It did feel a little too crowded inside the basilica, however.
a comunicação com a equipe na entrada foi um pouco confusa, mas a visita ao mosteiro em si foi muito agradável. o passeio valeu a pena.
à l'intérieur, il y avait pas mal de monde, surtout dans la basilique, mais notre guide nous a bien aidés à naviguer malgré la foule. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié le voyage.
Even with crowds, the audio guide sounded great.
