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

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.

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.

Getting into the gallery was very easy, and the young woman from the agency who greeted us was very kind and helped us download the audio guide. The artworks at the gallery are beautiful, and the tour was fascinating. We were very satisfied.

It was a sweltering day when I visited this museum, but the interior was cool and comfortable, allowing me to fully enjoy the many masterpieces on display.

I appreciated being provided with a headset and map for the bus. What was annoying was that there was complimentary wifi and it didn't work in many of the buses. A lot of the buses the jack for the earphone was broken and if the bus was busy with no free seats you missed out on the commentary.
