  • Going in again in August!!!!
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/18/09
    The Galleria Borghese is a must see!!! If you are a fan of Bernini, don't miss it. If you you are not yet a fan... go to the Borhese, and you will be.

  • It was great but.........
    By buggy, 06/03/08
    It was a little crowded which prevented me from really enjoying the various works of art.

    Next time I am going to try to go in the slow season so that I can truly enjoy.

  • A Must See, Again & Again
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 12/20/07
    Beautiful, priceless art as seen in an historic and beautiful gallery located in one of Italy's most beautiful parks, The Villa Borghese. Admitance to the gallery is by reservation only for a (2) hour time slot. It is possible to view all the works up close and without crowds, but you will be hooked to return again and again. Reservations are ...

  • Glad you had to make a appointment
    By celine, 08/24/07
    This was a wonderful experience. The Vatican should do the same! Travel light you have to check all bags and you only have a two hour appointment. Once we had a guide in our hands we moved through and saw what we wanted first and then went back to see the rest. This was a very pleasant experience. To see the expressions on the faces of the Bernini’s: Apollo and Daphne a must see!

  • Buy the hand held tour guide
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/24/07
    There are two places you have to visit in Rome. The Colesium is one. This is the other. The art is fabulous, the history great, the english guide was clear for 4 euros extra. Ths is on the Roma Pass and worth it.

  • If you miss this, you've missed Rome
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 04/10/07
    Because this is where most of the Bernini sculptures are housed, and Bernini is THE Roman artist. These sculptures are just divine--you'll never see anything this great anywhere else.

    The Caravaggios are pretty nice too!

  • I made a special trip to Rome just to see Galleria Borghese
    By Claire, 03/14/07
    What a thrill. Previous trips to Rome did not include Galleria Borghese, as it was closed for restoration. When I finally was able to get there, it did not disappoint. The sculpture is the finest collection I have ever seen. By limiting guests, one never feels crowded or unable to see properly. The Galleria Borghese is an absolute "must see" when in Rome.

  • Excellent Artwork with staffers that seem uninterested to enable tourists to enjoy and understand it
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 09/25/06
    I loved Rome and the Borgese is definately a "must see" which is a strong statement when you consider everything in this beautiful city. This museum is simply amazing.

    Unfortunately for some strange reason the staff that work at this museum do not seem to care whether you enjoy yourself or not. I do not understand why considering how ...

  • spectacular
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/27/06
    A true treasure. The art in this lovely home is priceless and at arm's length. Don't do without the audio tour, which gives interesting facts and anecdotes about most of the more famous pieces. The sculptures are not to be believed! One of our favorites in all of Rome.
