Great experience
Amazing museum, fantastic guide! The museum is incredible and our guide was knowledgeable and engaging. The time flew by.

Could have been better
This was an unusual experience and may not reflect Viator at all. We arrived in a rain storm the entrance to the gallery was crowded with wet people standing out of the rain. It was nearly impossible to enter. We could find no one from Viator. Hundreds of people were standing in lines. Someone identified themself as a tour operator, but she was wasn’t wearing anything which said Viator. She gathered up my family members, read my receipt, and issued us tickets our entry was at four o’clock. We arrived at 3:40. We finally made it into the gallery at 4:25. The entire experience was stressful, uncomfortable, and disorganized. Considering the cost of entry at nearly four hundred dollars, this was a very poor experience.

The artwork is...
The artwork is breathtaking and the tour guide was extremely knowledge. It was obvious he had a passion for the art and teaching those of us in the group, things we would never be aware of walking through on our own. I highly recommend going with a guide.

Joy in art and storytelling.
The art is extraordinary so many beautiful paintings, sculptures, objects and surfaces. But the most impressive thing was our guide, unfortunately she, pink haired, only shared name once, 3:00 Sept. 29. Her knowledge and joy in sharing it was incredible. She was so inclusive of each and every member of the we felt speciall. She was a delight of our vacation. One difficulty we have had twice , locating the group leader, if tour group is switched from Viator, we should be told, which one. She did however call me, which was very polite!

Fantastico Borghese!
Meeting our VIATOR tour guide was seamlessly easy. He was very friendly and filled with wonderfully detailed information laced with humor. A joyous 2 hour adventure at the Villa!

Borghese Gallery is...
Borghese Gallery is filled with amazing works of art and our tour guide made it very interesting with his knowledge of the artists and the family that collected this art.
