Proletariat Enjoys Borghese - Dimitri was an absolutely fabulous tour guide. I know some people do reviews where if they name drop their tour guide, they get points or something. Not true here, I just have to give Dimitri a shoutout! He was incredibly knowledgeable, funny, and passionate about the art. His tour elevated the experience for us tremendously. Just the day before we had gone to the Vatican Museum and felt overwhelmed by all the art there. That could have happened here, as there’s so much to see at Borghese. But Dimitri grounded each room by pointing out the artists, masterpieces, and experiences behind each work. In general, Galleria Borghese is a must-see in Rome. The art is world class and there are significantly less people there. It was a beautiful experience and highlight of the trip for us!

Choose Dmitri, if you can! - From the whole trip to Rome it was the most extraordinary experience!!! After tour in Vatican Museum, where overwhelming and shameless and impudent ostentation of those who shall lead a modest and simple life, Gallery Borghese was a great change. If course Bernini, of course course Caravaggio, of course even Rafael, but the best part of our tour was your GUIDE, Dimitri Pavone. We loved his distance and wit, not forgetting stunning knowledge letting him put out things in every possible perspective such as time, wealth, power, skill or social circumstances. The best guide in Rome, full stop.

Phenomenal tour of the Borghese Gallery with Dimitri! - Unforgettable experience! Dimitri was so knowledgeable and his passion for the collection at the Borghese Gallery was infectious. He didn’t rush us through the museum. Instead he focused on a few pieces in each room, providing fascinating details and giving us time to study and appreciate the painting or sculpture. We appreciated his wonderful sense of humor, as well. We would highly recommend this tour with Dimitri!
