Rome: Borghese Gallery and Villa Borghese Park Guided Tour

Rome

Discover the art collection of the Borghese Gallery on this guided tour with skip-the-line guaranteed. Housed in the Villa Borghese Park, the Galleria Borghese houses a substantial part of the Borghese Collection of paintings, sculptures, and antiquities, begun by Cardinal Scipione Borghese. It was modified and extended down the years and today it includes twenty rooms across two floors, housing absolute masterpieces by various artists including Bernini and Caravaggio. From the museum, exit into Villa Borghese Park, the fifth-largest public park in Rome. It covers about 80 hectares, which includes green areas of different types, from the Italian garden to the large English-style areas, buildings, small buildings, fountains, and ponds. The tour ends at the Pincio; at its summit stands the oldest public garden in Rome, designed by Giuseppe Valadier. From its panoramic terrace, overlooking the Piazza del Popolo below, you can enjoy one of the most wonderful views of the Eternal City.
