The Beauty of the Borghese Gallery as shown by Irene

We thoroughly enjoyed our tour of the beautiful Borghese Gallery led by Irene Because of Irene the Borghese visit was my favourite part of our week in Rome Irenes love and extensive knowledge of art history is obvious More importantly she knew exactly how to guide and to prompt so that each work of art resonated so personally and profoundly I felt absolutely emotional Thank you Irene

Our guide was so

Our guide was so knowledgeable about the Vatican museum and the basilica The Sistine chapel was closed due to the conclave but the trip was still amazing and well worth it

My father and I did this tour with the fantastic tour guide Marcello

My father and I did this tour with the fantastic tour guide Marcello The areas we got to see were fantastic and the commentary Marcello gave throughout was informative and understandable He had visual prompts he bought with him to show us to help add further detail and he answered all our additional questions At no point did we feel rushed which can be tricky in such a busy museum I would 100 recommend this tour to anyone visiting Rome and hopefully youre lucky enough to get Marcello worth adding I did a similar tour 2 years ago with a different company but this tour was hundreds of times better
