Pro tips to help you make a pick

Tickets for the Borghese Gallery are strictly available through advance booking. Tickets are highly likely to get sold out, especially during peak seasons.

Use your pre-booked tickets to skip past the long lines, and enhance your visit with a multilingual audio guide or a hosted entry.

Consider joining a tour led by an art historian guide providing in-depth insights into the art, history, and context of the gallery’s masterpieces. It's an intimate experience with just 15 guests in a group!

Entry to the Borghese Gallery is typically for a limited period (usually two hours). Manage your time well to explore the collections thoroughly.

Wheelchair users can access the basement area for tickets. Additionally, wheelchairs are available for use on each floor. However, elevators are narrow, and certain tours might not accommodate wheelchairs. Check your tickets in advance to confirm the same.

Unfortunately, the Borghese Garden doesn't offer specific kids' programs or interactive areas in English. Strollers are allowed only for kids up to the age 2.

Did you know?

The gallery once housed masterpieces stolen by Napoleon from conquered cities. While most were returned, a few, like Canova's 'Pauline Bonaparte', remain as reminders of the gallery's turbulent past.

It is believed that Caravaggio gifted the painting 'David with the Head of Goliath' to Pope Paul V. It was an act of pardon for killing a man in a barfight and absconding for some years.

The Borghese Gallery has a third floor which is a storeroom containing over 260 paintings that could not find space in the Gallery.

In 2020, a tourist broke the toes of 'Pauline Borghese as Venus Victrix' by sitting on the statue for a selfie.

Choosing Headout made the entry process to the Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel very easy, in what could be a bewildering and stressful situation. The meeting point is really close to the entrance but away from the queues and crowds. Getting the entry to the Pantheon as part of the same ticket combo is a great idea too.
