Merci pour cette visite efficace De limportance dêtre guidé à Borghèse

Jai apprécié lenthousiasme et la passion de notre guide Stefano qui réalise ce défi de faire traverser en 2h chronométrées la galerie en nous permettant de voir les principales oeuvres et de voir ce quil faut observer dans les oeuvres Une utile introduction à lart avec des ponts vers les autres musées et oeuvres connues Particulièrement pour cette galerie où on a peu de temps je pense quêtre guidé est nécessaire pour aller a lessentiel et bien en profiter On en voudrait encore Peu de temps pour les questions et écouter les commentaires qrcode des autres oeuvres malheureusement Mais lavantage de la visite guidées cest quau moins on repart avec des questions et des mondes qui souvrent à notre curiosité Merci

A great selfguided tour option

When I was unable to get a ticket to tour the Colosseum directly I looked for alternatives and came across the selfguided tour from EcoTours and Im glad I did Locating the representative to get my ticket was easy and being able to navigate the Colosseum Palatine Hill and the Roman Forum at my own pace and with the downloadable guide was great For the Colosseum I had a 9 AM ticket with Arena The lines were long but moved pretty quickly While there were definitely a lot more people there at that time than I hoped it also got more crowded throughout my hour inside so I would echo recommendations to book an early time I also took their advice to start at the Palatine Hill entrance instead of the Roman Forum which was nice because I got to avoid the crowds for that portion since most people enter at the Roman Forum following their Colosseum visit I ended up spending about 3 hours in total and had I not booked a tour for the Vatican City in the afternoon I wouldve spent more time at Palatine Hill and the Roman Forum

The Vatican Museum

There was a lot of walking The museum was much bigger than I thought it would be I also was amazed at the size of the crowds I understand with the Jubilee year and it being on a weekend probably added to crowd size Our guide was amazing So knowledgeable and humorous making it a memorable event
