Tour Description

Immerse yourself in one of Europe’s most extraordinary museums and one of Rome’s greatest patrician collections: the Borghese Gallery. Home to glorious works by Bernini, Caravaggio, and other highly-regarded artists in Italian history, the Borghese Gallery is an astounding showcase of Italian art and antiquity.

Step under the towering pines and ramble past the sculpted hedges in the “heart” of Rome. “Il Parco Borghese” is a heart-shaped park filled with greenery, wildlife activity, and centuries-old monuments. Let your expert private guide lead you through this natural escape from the bustling city, on your way to reaching the Borghese Gallery.

Discover the Borghese Gallery and its unparalleled artistic treasures

Built as a suburban villa for Cardinal Scipione Borghese, the villa has always housed an unparalleled collection of art. Learn the history of Cardinal Scipione Borghese and how he created such an incredible gallery—from its conception to the modern-day as an expert art historian reveals its collection.

View the awe-inspiring pieces by Bernini such as Apollo and Daphne: a marble sculpture of Daphne transforming into a tree to escape Apollo. Look upon Caravaggio’s masterpiece Saint Jerome, an oil painting portraying an elderly Saint Jerome writing in his study. The works in this gallery are bound to inspire and strengthen your love for Italian artists.
