The Borghese Gallery is wonderful and I really wanted to see Bernini’s David. I booked at the last minute, which was my fault. We got our tickets and got to skip the line, but paid almost twice the price of a regular gallery ticket. There was barely anything to the audio guide - it was only 8 minutes of history and did not follow the art pieces in the gallery. You also had to download an app to your phone over WiFi. So, everything was fine, but if you can, get your tickets directly from the gallery and don’t pay the inflated Viator price.
Pretty small, not the best location to get to. Expected much more compare to other private collections.
The booking and tickets redeem process are very user friendly. The lady at the meeting point was so nice as she advised us a few things about the gallery which was very helpful. I would highly recommend this activity.
If you are interested in historical srt, this is the tour for you. Includes religious as well as philosophical perspectives.
I couldn’t get tickets without paying for this experience. It was definitely overpriced. The audio guide provided was helpful.
The museum was phenomenal. It was a shame that not all of the rooms were open. Not sure why??? Great experience
This museum must be on your Rome “must see” list. The six works of Caravaggio and the Bernini sculptures are well worth the visit.
Pickup was super clear, close, and easy, and delivered exactly what I was looking for: last minute tickets to the museum without a tour.
There was a Viator representative outside Borguese Gallery and gave me the entrance tickets right away.
I quote Borghese as the most beatiful gallery in Rome. There are others, like Doria Pamphili, but Borghese is located in a nice park, with many trees, beside a Zoo, and you can enjoy other sites during your visit.
Very nice museum spoiled by ridiculous modern art hung in the middle of it. The curators ought to know better but apparently don't. Fortunately you can still see the good stuff.
Amazing beautiful words can describe how stunning this thought provoking gallery was. You see so many famous art that have been referenced throughout time. I recommend the audio guide because it was so engaging and easy to follow. Only bad thing was some art was gone because it was at a different art exhibition but that didn’t bother me as it was so good and such a peaceful place to see
The collection of art is stunning, and the museum’s intimate setting makes it a truly special experience.
Galleria Borghese is one of my favorite places in Rome, not to be missed if you love art history. Viator made getting tickets easy and quick
It is impossible to get tickets at the museum. Very good experience with love Rome. Well worth the extra charge
Not going to leave a good review for a scum bag ticket scalper. That’s all this is. All they do is give you a ticket. Why is the gallery sold out for 3 months into the future? Because of ticket scalpers like this who purchase the tickets and sell them for profit without adding any value.
We did not have a guide we just did skip the line entry. While I may not have know much about the artists that created the works they were worth seeing. I was able to take my time and enjoy the sculptures, paintings, frescos and all the intricate architecture in the gallery. I highly recommend it if you just want to enjoy seeing the history and beauty of artists long past.
Great museum! Good way to get last minute tickets. Easy meet up to pick up ticket and go. No guide. Just like what we wanted. Wonderful park around the museum.
The collection of art is truly remarkable and worth every penny, but the inflated ticket prices due to reselling practices can be frustrating. Despite this issue, I will continue to visit Borghese whenever I am in Rome because the experience is always unforgettable. I just hope that one day the ticketing process will be more fair and accessible for all art lovers.
Lots of great paintings and sculptures here. The paintings on the ceiling impressed me the most. With the advanced booking, I was able to quickly go in on time and start the experience. Relatively short though, about 1 hour
We just got a skip-the-line ticket. We got a €3 audio device. That was enough for us, as we’ve been to the gallery before. About ¼ is closed now for renovation—just like all of Rome in preparation for 2025 jubilee year.
Lines in Rome were crazy. It was like New York City on New Year’s Eve. Skip the line tickets saved hours wasted in line.
I was happy I was able to get a ticket through Viator to the Borghese Gallery, since they were sold out. The only thing I did not. know, is that it would be so late of an entry.
We made a last minute plan to go to the Gallery and found these tickets at little more than double the price (since the tickets were sold out). Found out when we got there that the museum was being refurbished and only the first floor was open. Ticket prices were reduced accordingly by the museum, but not so by Viator. We paid 4x the price. Buyer beware!
Hot and overcrowded. Can't even enter with a cross body bag so have to stand in line for 20 minutes. Too many people in gallery. Park is unkept. Not at all what I expected
This was an effective way to get tickets since they were sold out through the gallery. I wish I had acted earlier to get gallery tickets.
Yes the ground floor collection is beautiful but the 1st floor was closed
For ALL this money I was NOT INFORMED about this by the company
The gallery was simply stunning. Only the first floor is open due to construction, but everything is packed into that area. It was an excellent trip, and the skip the line ticket guide was easy to find and easy to work with.
A beautiful place to admire beautiful art. Very relaxed atmosphere , but you definitely need to reserve a ticket. There were quite a few disappointed people trying for last minute tickets.
We were the last of our group to arrive a person gave us our tickets but the tour left without us. Since we paid 2.5 times entrance fee this was very disappointing
