Combo (Save 11%): Borghese Gallery Tickets + Rome Hop-On Hop-Off Bus Tour

It's a pity that due to personal reasons we were unable to come to Rome to visit the Borghese Gallery. Since we paid for the entrance tickets, I am asking if I can get a discount for a new visit in October/November 2026. Looking forward to your reply, thank you. Gianni Zecchini and Domiziana Duchi

If you go to Rome, be sure to book a tour of the Borghese Gallery—it's the most beautiful art museum. Headout is always top-notch—we were greeted by a host who explained everything to us.

I went on my own as my husband is more interested in climbing hills than in art. A very beautiful gallery, although be prepared to walk through a park and need your Google Maps to get to the right place. The park is actually wonderful (at least on a Sunday when I was there). I had problems with the audioguide (yet again) as I apparently entered through the wrong door (although it was the only one to my knowledge) so it didn't know where I was. Luckily, I could eavesdrop some guides so I did get some information, but that's not ideal. The artworks are absolutely amazing, and I cried when I saw my first Carravaggio painting. You can wander around on your own for as long as your ticket allows. There are stairs, and if, like me, your mobility is limited, prepare yourself.

Unfortunately, the bus didn't cross the Tiber and the Colosseum stop isn't there at the moment either. Too bad. Otherwise good, it arrived regularly.

We booked our tickets for the Borghese Gallery through Headout and the whole process was an absolute breeze. We were a couple of travelers from Greece visiting Rome for a few days, and we really didn't want to deal with long queues or scrambling for last-minute tickets (which are usually sold out anyway). The app was a lifesaver—we just showed the barcode on our phones at the entrance and walked right in. As for the gallery itself, words can't even describe it. It's honestly the most beautiful and well-curated museum we saw during our entire trip to Italy. What completely blew our minds were the sculptures by Bernini. Masterpieces like 'Apollo and Daphne' and 'The Rape of Proserpina' are so incredibly detailed that the marble literally looks like real, soft skin. Of course, being from Greece, we couldn't help but notice and be totally amazed by all the ancient Greek elements and mythology that dominate so many of the pieces, both in the sculptures and the stunning ceiling frescoes. It gave us a really nice sense of familiarity walking through those rooms. The organization inside the gallery was spot on, too. It wasn't overly crowded at all because of the strict two-hour time slots, which meant we could actually take our time and enjoy the art in peace. I highly recommend it—both visiting this amazing place and using the Headout platform, which worked like a charm!

It's perfect, but the only downside is that you have to find the guide before going in so he can give you your paper ticket. With just the digital QR code, you won't be allowed in, and you'll get kicked out like a piece of trash.
