Well Worth a Visit - We walked through the Borghese gardens before our tour of the Gallery. Highly recommend, it was beautiful, like the Central Park of Roma. Our tour guide inside Galleria Borghese was phenomenal, she had degrees - including a PhD - in archeologies and art histories, and an obvious love for the pieces in the gallery. She was very knowledgeable about the various artists and their histories, and pointed out the most exquisite details in the sculptures and paintings, even the former Palace itself. Highly recommend a visit if you have an afternoon in Rome.

Absolutely excellent - This tour was excellent. Smaragda was very knowledgeable and provided so many incites into the Borghese family and the politics and society in which the family and the artists lived. She made the art relevant to the world at that time and even today. Smaragada was both sensitive and thought provoking. We would love to do another tour with her.
