Super simple way to enter the gallery with ease. Was easy to find the guide in front of the building, provided us with the audio guide and we could take our time through the museum. We enjoyed that it was self guided, but supported by some fantastic audio information. Would definitely recommend!
Villa borghese itself is magnificent however this tour is misleading as we thought we would be in a small guided tour not just given a QR code to download a audio file and given a paper ticket.
It should be explicitly stated you bring air pods
The and book directly with Villa Borghese than a tour like this
The Borghese is incredible. Strongly recommend you book a guide. There is so much to see, a guide will enhance your experience.
No audio provided during the entire visit tour as we paid for it!
The QR code in the pop guide app never downloads
Great visit with good price. It is not always easy to get last-minute tickets to the museum but Viator made it easy!
The tour was easy to book. We were very surprised that Galleria Borghese offered evening tours. It was much better time to visit, less crowded and less hot. We really enjoyed the tour and impressive artworks in Galleria.
Our guide ignited everyone's interest in the renaissance and baroque and the major artists of the time. Our appreciation went deeper. It was awesome!
Response from Host, Jul 2026
Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We’re delighted that your guide brought the Renaissance and Baroque masterpieces of Villa Borghese to life, making your visit even more meaningful. We hope to welcome you again soon for another unforgettable experience!

Loved the Borghese Gallery itself. We were offered a last minute free upgrade with a guide that we accepted. However, it would have been better to have gone through this beautiful gallery on our own. Highly recommend the experience, but with just the audio.
We booked a guide tour which was pricey and arrived to the location and no one was there. Instructions said to look for tour guide with red flag and they were not there. I called customer service and they said they were going to to contact the person which they did and they started sending me tickets through WhatsApp. I paid for a guide and they basically told me to just go in. I requested a refund since it is not what I paid for and they said they need approval from the company to receive money back! I still have not heard from them nor have I received a refund
This is just a ticket with a QR code to scan for an audio guide. Make sure you scan the code before entering the museum since cell service is poor inside the museum. Bring your own headphones. This audio guide is not good. Several of the pieces they talked about were not on display in the museum. The audio guide only spoke about a few pieces. Try to get your audio guide from the museum and not from this service. I learned more by listening to other in-person guides.
Terrible experience. I strongly advise against them!!! I purchased tickets that were then sent and subsequently canceled by them, and once I arrived on site, I could no longer find them in the WhatsApp conversation! Do not trust them... they are real THIEVES!
