We had an amazing tour. ...
We had an amazing tour. Our guide was very engaging and his love of the subject matter was obvious and engaging. He was a great tour guide, I would highly recommend this tour.
Borghese Gallery Tour
Frederico did a great job of explaining the Gallery’s theme of metamorphosis. He tied, Ruebens, Bernini, Rapheal and many other artists together. It was a look back into history to understand the motivations and mindset of many of the artists. Frederico did a superb job of making sure we saw the best in the gallery in 3.5 hours. Like so much in Rome, a single tour doesn’t do the gallery or the surrounding gardens justice. A great compliment to the Vatican tour we had the day before. There is no way to see the art of the Renaissance in a day or two, just as there is no way to taste all the great food. This tour helps refine your knowledge to know what you might want to see on the next trip..

Very good guide with very good explanations. It's a shame that the tour only lasted 2 hours because we weren't able to take the time to linger in the rooms afterwards.
Great art and Gabriele is a great guide
This was a very informative tour because Gabriele did a wonderful job. He is passionate and knowledgeable and the guide makes all the difference on a tour like this! The art itself is world class (Bernini, Caravaggio, etc) but you enjoy it more with a great guide.
