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 ...
If you know anything about art, you will really enjoy this place. We used the automated guide and it was very informative and really good. Just incredible artwork!!!
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!

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.

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 ...
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.
