About this tour

Step into Rome’s Galleria Colonna, a grand gallery conceived as a boardroom and adorned with art and history. Its rooms and ceilings tell the story of Marcantonio II Colonna, commander of the Papal fleet, and the Christian fleet’s victory at the 1571 Battle of Lepanto.

As you explore, look for works by Lorenzo Monaco, Domenico Ghirlandaio, Palma the Elder, Bronzino, Tintoretto, Pietro da Cortona, Annibale Carracci, Guercino, and Guido Reni. Ceiling frescoes by Filippo Gherardi, Giovanni Coli, Sebastiano Ricci, and Giuseppe Bartolomeo Chiari celebrate Colonna’s role in the battle. The ticket includes gallery admission, and a live guide is listed in German. Your selected time is a preference; if it is unavailable, the closest available time will be confirmed.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.29 from 93 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 4.9.
