Ticketing was easy. Follow ups were timely and clear. Federico was an engaging guide who had a solid historic art knowledge. Villa Borghese is a must see!

Our tour guide cancelled for health reasons and our only option that day was for a self-guided tour. I was told we would get 15,00 euros reimbursed on my credit card for each of our 4 tickets. I would have liked to have headsets for no charge since we had originally booked a guided tour. Also, 15,00 euros refund doesn't seem appropriate for each 65,07 euro ticket we purchased. Seems like the guided tour would have been worth more than 15,00 euros. The museum is amazing and we enjoyed our time there.

La guide était très compétente et pédagogue. Elle nous a présenté les œuvres d'un point de vue technique mais aussi dans leur dimension émotionnelle. Une visite très enrichissante dans un très beau lieu.

I expected a two hour your and got 1hr 20mins in the art gallery with some time outside. It was all rather rushed which was a shame considering this was a prestiguos museum. The guide was very knowledgable and personable.

The tour was very informative about the Borghese Gallery collection. It was well timed with plenty of time to really understand the artwork. Crown Tours did an exceptional job with the tour. Felt that the guide was well informed.

Your experience

Few museums in the world can match the grandeur of the Borghese Gallery. It houses art collections by legendary painters and sculptors such as Berini, Messina, Raphael, Caravaggio, and many others. The wealthy Cardinal Scipione Borghese originally assembled these works of art. The Borghese Family continued to add pieces to the incredible collection.

Some artworks were sold to the French State during the 19th century as the Borghese family went bankrupt. These pieces are still preserved in the Louvre. Since 1903, the museum has been open to the public and has seen significant restoration and modernization work.

On your visit, you will be accompanied by an expert guide, who will narrate interesting anecdotes related to the museum and the pieces of art inside. Gaze into the depths of Bernini’s famous sculpture of ‘Apollo and Daphne’, Lady with Unicorn By Raphael, Paulina Bonaparte By Cavona, Apollo and Daphne By Bernini, and The Rape of Proserpina By Bernini. The history behind the works of art and how they came to be in the Borghese Gallery, explained by the guide, is just as intriguing as the art pieces.

Visit the Borghese Gardens and stroll around the lush landscapes for its fountains and to get a glimpse of Rome's panoramic views.
