We really enjoy this activity. The tour guide was very analyzed and the ear phones excellent because if they are not you hear nothing of the touring ... I said that because at the Vatican touring the sound of ear phones were horrible and we didn't enjoy it.

Our two hour tour in the Borghese Gallery was a highlight of our time in Rome. Our guide, Bianca was very knowledgeable and interesting. She brought the art to life and pointed out things we hadn’t seen and would have missed if we had done the tour by ourselves. Totally recommend this tour especially if you are interested in art & sculptures.

Brilliant, Fred was extremely informative and knew just how in depth to go. I’m a history teacher familiar with the genre and artists. He illuminated me to many anecdotes that I myself found fascinating. His approach was very ‘approachable’ for the uninformed. Amazing value!
