About this tour

Step into the Borghese Gallery, where Baroque sculpture and celebrated paintings fill the rooms of a grand Roman villa. This semi-private Rome Borghese Gallery Guided Tour pairs skip-the-ticket-line entry with an English-speaking guide and a group capped at five guests.

As you explore the gallery’s twenty rooms, encounter works by Caravaggio, Canova, Bernini, and Raphael. Hear the stories behind paintings such as Young Sick Bacchus and Boy with a Basket of Fruit, then admire Bernini’s expressive sculptures, including Goat Amalthea with Infant Jupiter and Faun, Rape of Proserpine, and the iconic Apollo and Daphne. With a small group, the visit offers a more intimate setting for taking in the collection and its artistic details. Headsets are available if needed.

Meet your guide outside the gallery entrance, look for the Doooing Experience sign, and enjoy a focused introduction to one of Rome’s most renowned art collections. Book your Rome Borghese Gallery Guided Tour for a close-up encounter with the artists and masterpieces that make this gallery unforgettable.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 5.00 from 3 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in Rome
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.3. Top 35% in Rome means it ranks in the top 35% of tours in Rome by this score.
