Stop At: Villa Borghese, P.zzale del Museo Borghese, 00155 Rome Italy

The best way for us to describe the Villa Borghese gardens is:

As the keeper of the Villa Borghese Pinciana, I publicly declare: whoever you are, providing to be a freeman, fear no hindrance here; go where you like, ask what you wish; leave when you want. Everything you see was made more for the guest than for its landlord. In the golden century, when peaceful years made any thing splendid for the refined ones, the landlord forbade all iron rules for the guest.

Let good faith be the only rule for our friend.

But if someone, consciously and purposely, by wickedness and deceit, was to break the golden rules of courtesy, be alert, the angry keeper may break these friendly words on your head.

(Latin inscription carved on marble plate at Villa Borghese).

Duration: 15 minutes

We’ll admire Caravaggio’s most important paintings, among which “Young sick Bacchus” and “ Boy with a basket of fruit”; Bernini and Canova’s magnificent sculptures’ collection, boasting works like “Apollo and Daphne”, “David”, “The rape of Preserpina” and “Paolina Bonaparte”. Of course we won’t miss out on Raffaello’s “Entombment of Christ”.

I was charged OVER DOUBLE through La Vacanza Travel for the short visit ticket. Not worth it when you can just buy one there for the normal price. I won’t ever use La Vacanza Travel again in my travels, they suck every single time

This is a beautiful museum and is very highly regarded. The skip the line tickets allowed us to walk right in. I can’t imagine having to wait in line on a hot,crowded summer day.

This is a spectacular museum and our guide, Matteo, was superb. Worth ever penny and the time spent. Learned a lot about the artists and the works.

The guide was very good and the tour of the gallery was interesting and informative. However, they offered a two-hours tour (and it was very expansive) when in fact the tour was only one hour and 20 minutes. The gallery closed after one hour of visit and then we were guided to the gardens. But it was impossible to see anything in the darkness and the guide finished after approximately 20 minutes (apologizing that the lights were turned off). We were very happy for the option to see the gallery (there were no tickets on that day so that was our only option of entering) but we did feel a bit scammed for the short duration of the tour relative to the expansive price.

Very quick access to the beautiful museum. The museum was sold out for the day and we were able to book with La Vacanza Travel.
