Rome for art & culture lovers

Good times... just the meeting place was a little far from the actual museum. But the representative Kian, was polite and super cool. 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

Our tour was excellent! Our guide was very knowledgeable and smart! She was an Art History encyclopedia! Would take her on any trip with us! Thank you!

We could never have navigated these busy sites without our expert guide - it was unbelievably busy and hot in high summer but the tour guide did a fantastic job of making it enjoyable and informative. I am a history buff and the guide managed to make some interesting points i hadn't considered about the exhibits whilst keeping us all together and navigating everything. Would definitely book this tour guide and this company again for other things. We're very glad we booked this tour.

Despite our visit being on an exceptionally busy day, our pre-purchased Headout ticket ensured that we were in a line that kept moving. And while the features of St. Peter's Basilica speak volumes on their own, our appreciation of them, their purpose, and their arrangement were enhanced exponentially by the audio guide that came with our Headout experience. We'll certainly visit St. Peter's again, and we'll certainly take advantage of all that the Headout experience has to offer.

Damiano was an excellent tour guide, he was extremely knowledgeable and made sure everyone was comfortable and enjoying!

Good value for money but very poor signage - no one knew where exactly to go as there were several queues at the mentioned entrance point. It would be beneficial to give more detailed explanation(e.g not only "Near the Arch of Titus" but alongside the fence, to the right and up the hill). Other than that, a straight forward visit and very interesting. Note - if you are going in summer, there is close to 0 shade and there is lots of walking uphill. The queue outside is not shaded and it can take up to 45mins in waiting. Make sure you are well prepared - there are a few water fountains in the Palatine hill area, but none down on the forums. I strongly suggest going earlier or later in the day, having lots of water, a hat/parasol and very sturdy shoes - the marble is slippery.

We got our tickets electronically and we just had to go to the ticket office at Doria Pamphilj at our assigned time. The tickets included an audio guide so we already brought wired earbuds and the museum was one of the very best in Rome.

Getting there was easy using public transportation; since we had purchased our tickets in advance, entry was quick—we didn’t have to wait—and we were promptly provided with the equipment needed to begin the guided tour. The tour is easy and very educational; in particular, it’s clear that they’ve taken children into account, as there are specific points of interest designed just for them. Access to the crypt itself is easy. The decorations made from human bones reflect the respect they had for their brothers; since they removed their skeletal remains to make room for burying other Capuchins, they gave those remains a final resting place that was also very carefully tended in every respect—even striving to make them part of the art— and I believe it’s part of a commemoration, a recognition, and a respect for what their lives were like, as they remain within the crypt itself. An excellent tour, recommended for those who aren’t easily disturbed; it’s easily accessible and straightforward to navigate, and it helps you understand a little more about who the Capuchins were and what they did.
