Enjoy a guided walking tour of Galleria Borghese and the Villa's gardens with skip-the-line admission.

Get your ticket in advance and visit one of the world’s most beautiful art museums, hosting the works of extraordinary artists. Admire Caravaggio’s masterpieces, as “Young sick Bacchus” and “ Boy with a Basket of Fruit”, and Bernini and Canova’s magnificent sculptures’ collection including “Apollo and Daphne”, “David”, “The Rape of Proserpina” and “Paolina Bonaparte”. Of course, you also won’t miss out on Raffaello’s “Entombment of Christ”.

With the help of your expert guide, discover the secrets, stories and painting techniques concealed behind the masterpieces of one of the world’s most beautiful art museums.

This tour is an absolute MUST! Our guide (Mattia) was incredibly knowledgeable, passionate, and engaging—the kind of storyteller who makes every painting come alive. He shared fascinating insights that added depth and context, and his enthusiasm was contagious. Hands down the best tour we've done!

Excellent and knowledgeable guide. Unfortunately, most of the group arrived rather late and the tour turned into whirlwind in order to finish before closing times. We took the golf cart garden tour a week before. That is the recommended schedule.

Vlotte gids die met veel kennis van zaken de meest belangrijke kunstwerken tot in de details heeft besproken. Timing gerespecteerd. Een aanrader.
