Vincenzo was a wonderful guide. Interesting, personable, entertaining in describing the beautiful rooms, sculptures and paintings of Canova, Berghini and Caravaggio. No other artists were covered so don’t expect stopping at any other pieces of work. Worth the cost.

We had visited the Borghese a number of times over the years but never with a guide. What a mistake! Our guide was excellent in every way; hugely knowledgeable, spoke good English , had empathy with the art works and a sense of humour. Thank you - we will use you again!

Martina was our favorite Italian tour guide! Her English was impeccable, and she gave important historical context to the artwork and provided fascinating details. I would give her 6 stars if I could!

Rossella (our guide) accompanied us through the various rooms of the gallery, making us passionate about the history of art, describing the various details of the works and the many associated curiosities. Perfect organization. We absolutely recommend it!

Guide was great at describing the highlights inside the museum - she was very knowledgeable! Only reduced a star as felt a little unorganized prior to the tour start. The workers did not seem friendly with checking in, or giving us information on what was happening next. Aside from that, the actual tour and guide itself was great. Of note - second floor remains under renovation so we didn’t get to see a few of the highlight paintings. But not fault of the tour for this. Renovations are everywhere now in preparation for the jubilee next year.
