The Borghese Gallery is a true gem located in a 17th-century palace. The villa, itself, is worthy of a visit for its architectural design and décor alone. By simply taking a step inside the villa, you will be left speechless by its beauty.
To help maintain the museum’s luxury and prestige, the number of travelers allowed inside at a time is limited. As a result, tickets can sometimes be hard to find and purchase. Do not worry, though, as LivTours handles everything – skip-the-line tickets are included in all of our tours. As soon as you meet your private, highly experienced guide outside of the stunning Borghese Gallery, you will enter directly into the museum. There will be no waiting in long lines.

"This gallery is my most favorite place in the world! Bernini's statues take your breath away -- you keep asking yourself, is that really marble?? -- it looks sooo real! The paintings are fantastic too. The decorations and afrescos in the villa are enough just in themselves. I was however VERY happy to have Giorgio with me to really give me the history and stories behind each masterpiece that we looked at. This tour was one of the best I've ever taken and definitely made my visit to the Borghese Gallery one I will always remember."
