Our 2 hour guided tour in the Borghese Gallery was excellent! Mara, our tour guide, was so knowledgeable and shared her passion for the art collection (especially the Bernini sculptures). While the collection is enormous, the gallery spaces are relatively small and she was masterful at navigating the museum and selecting the works to present to our group- her context and stories made the artwork come to life.
I would absolutely recommend this guided tour and our delightful tour guide.

Kylie was a terrific engaging guide. We took the tour because one of our group really likes art, but all of us enjoyed it.
