I like the ease of being able to hop on and off the bus. I think it would be better to advise how far away the attraction is from the bus's hop on or off spot. For example the coliseum hop on hop off spot is down the street and around the corner, that information would have been more helpful to include with the information about the location already available.

The tour stops are well organized, the guys/guys at the various points kind and polite. Each stop strategic to be able to reach more historical sites or not, waiting times in the norm ! Also the narrators' stories very light and interesting Rated 10View original review in Italian

Borghese Gallery
A visit to Rome wouldn't be complete without experiencing the Borghese Gallery, renowned for its collection of masterpieces by Renaissance artists such as Raphael, Bernini, Caravaggio, Titian, and Canova. However, waiting in line for tickets can be cumbersome. See Raphael's The Deposition, Bernini's Apollo and Daphne, and Caravaggio's self-portraits. Marvel at the marble sculptures of the Twelve Roman Emperors and the rare paintings adorning the walls. One highlight is Canova's sculpture of Pauline Bonaparte, Napoleon’s sister.
