One of the great art museums in world.Caravaggio on display with play on light and darkness with great emotion and Bernini David along with Apollo and Daphne is worth a trip to Rome in itself

The guide I had with OnceUponaTime Tours was exceptional! He was warm and welcoming of everyone in the group. He was very knowledgeable of the art, the artists, the museum, the history and the politics behind it all. It was very interesting. He also managed us through the museum like a professional, navigating around the other groups with ease. It was definitely worth the money! I’m very grateful for the experience and for his wonderful teaching gift. I think his name was Dimitri but I’m not sure I’m recalling correctly. He was Italian and spoke English fluently. He was the best!

Never book these third party tours. 3 of 4 did not show up. Viator will give you your money back but you will not be able to see the museums. Only book direct in advance with each museum
Perry_M, May 2026
Dimitry was knowledgeable, humorous, and efficient. He managed the group so that we were never where the crowd was and spoke with affection about the artists
Joseph_p, May 2026
The Gallery is exquisite, paintings and sculptures are beautifully displayed. Our guide was the best, she was able to tell the stories in such away that you couldn’t wait for the next story.

Educational fun very entertaining worth every euro highly recommended was prompt as promised food choice
OLDEMIRO_H, May 2026
When I bought it wasn't clear that would be one controlled group. I had expected for a audioguide and one ticket to museum. Only this.
Heidi_H, May 2026
Villa Borghese is a MUST when you visit Rome! Our guide, Demitri, was excellent- and hilarious. He gave us so many interesting details. I recommend the 9am tour - we had some of the rooms completely to ourselves.

WARNING ! No one tells you where the tour actually starts. There are travel companies out side the building with their companies flag identifying who they are. Viator did not send us any info as to what company was going to be given the tour. Also our tour was suppose to begin at 11:00. Viator claims they sent us a email postponing the tour at 2:00. We didn't get it. So we showed up at 11;00 to find out the tour would not start until 2:00. We tried to cancel the tour but they refused to reimburse us. So we sat around for 3 hours for the tour to start.

ref 1375299941-REV1PG7.. I Paid 1516,16 Danish Kroner on 24th March for entree to Galleria Borghese on 22.04 Skip-the Line-Entry Ticket with Audioguide. We did not get what we ordered : no audioguide-just referred to PoPguide with 3 pictures of Highlights -only for me .not my friend. There was no skip the line. We had to line up like other visitors. This is vastly overcharged- since the museum tickets were only 18 Euro each- 36 euro= 270 Danish kroner !!! We are higlhly dissatisfied , and shall do what we can to discourage others from using your service !!
Patricia_G, Apr 2026
Our guide was very knowledgeable about the gallery and the art. We learned so much about the art and the time periods. Even our non-art loving travel partner was fascinated by the experience.
bob_j, Apr 2026
We are absolutely disappointed with Viator. We originally booked the tour for 12:00. We were later contacted to say that time was full. We rebooked for 2:00 on the same day. We have vouchers/confirmations that clearly show we were confirmed for 2:00. Near 12:00 on the day of the tour we were called asking where we were. We explained what I wrote above, and as requested, sent screen shots of our confirmations for 2:00. We arrived at Borghese Gallery to find no tour guide. My friend attempted to call but the call would be disconnected each time. We are extremely disappointed and expect a full refund!
Paul_R, Apr 2026
I can’t review it because we didn’t get to do it. Viator had us scheduled at the wrong time. And then we got the ticket voucher the correct time and their tour guide failed to show up. I will be requesting a refund .
Thomas_P, Apr 2026
The art in the Borghese Gallery was unbelievable! Our guide, Dimitri shared the right amount of information. He was very animated and knowledgeable.
Kenneth_C, Apr 2026
Had a great time and our guide totally understood we were there more to look at sculptures than paintings. So he split our time perfectly. Totally worth it.
Siri_A, Apr 2026
Great tour! Very easy check in and engaging your guide. I learned a lot and really enjoyed the experience.
LarsOve_F, Apr 2026
Extremely good guide! Very interesting to listen to! I can recommend this tour to all my friends!!!!!
Lynn_R, Apr 2026
Our guide was excellent. She enthusiastically presented information, some of which we had not previously known. We love this Gallery and come every time we are in Rome. But we knew it was hard to get tickets. We were glad that you could help. But one thing you need to do: tell your clients that they need to wait outside for the group and please have the guide clearly identified.
Karen_F, Apr 2026
This is a superb museum and one I highly recommend to people especially for its artwork but also for its tight control and flow of patrons. Quite unlike Uffizi in Florence where one can hardly enjoy the art anymore. Matteo was a gem of an Art Historian and made the appreciation for what we were seeing that much more rich and enjoyable. I will go back again to see more.
Gregory_P, Apr 2026
Truly outstanding guide. I wish I could remember her name. She had deep knowledge and passion about the art we saw. I think of myself as highly Edinburgh these area and found her command of the subject and presentation outstanding.
Christopher_C, Apr 2026
Very in depth discussions; I learned a lot! Tour guide was very friendly, enthusiastic, and knowledgeable.
mark_m, Mar 2026
Dimitri was an excellent tour guide. We could easily tell that he loves art, history and teaching. We learned so much in such a short time and really appreciated his insights. Thanks again!
Tim_S, Mar 2026
This was a wonderful morning. The galleries are fabulous and our guide was extremely knowledgeable and informative. We highly recommend this visit.
Betsey_A, Mar 2026
Sabrina is an excellent/ superior guide very knowledgeable and well spoken
Made the experience very interesting I would come back not only because of the beautiful art but because of her
Olga_T, Mar 2026
This Gallery is gorgeous! Our tour guide, Dmitry, was knowledgeable but cut the tour off by half an hour earlier, which we did not expect. Highly recommend this tour!
Kevin_M, Mar 2026
The tour guide was very knowledgeable. He also made it very interesting. The time and amount of information was perfect. Many of the other tours are too long and overwhelming and leave you exhausted but this was perfect
Cory_D, Mar 2026
Guide was amazing! Her passion and knowledge of the artwork made our tour very memorable! Highly recommend!
P_B, Mar 2026
Excellent tour of the Borghese. Our guide Agnese combined all of the necessary art historical facts with close, thoughtful "readings" of key sculptures and paintings plus revealing stories of the artists and their patrons. I especially appreciated her sensitive approach to the great and troubled Caravaggio. I am new to understanding art and would have been lost here on my own. I feel like I learned a lot from Agnese. That is the greatest compliment that I can give to a teacher, and what is a good guide but a good teacher?
Kathleen_P, Mar 2026
The app used for the oral descriptions did not work well. It was very difficult to hear and kept shutting off. There is no tour guide.
