His passion for the art in the museum beamed from him. I have been to the Galleria Borghese many times but never with a guide. It was a fantastic experience.”

“Booking the Borghese Gallery and meeting Veronica outside was extremely easy. She sent me a message on WhatsApp the day before with clear instructions about the meeting point and was there early to meet us. The gallery itself is indescribably magnificent. The audio guide is worth it to understand all of the pieces that one is viewing. Very glad that after 4 trips to Rome, I finally made it inside the gallery and not just to the surrounding grounds!”

“Visiting the museum was an overall nice experience. The artwork and the building itself are amazing. However, I thought the price I paid to get in was overpriced because it was a short experience. We went through the entire place, including the garden accessible through the inside in an hour. The place is not very large compared to other museums.”
