Ciao! My name is René. I am a licensed Tour Guide of Rome and I love touring real travellers. Those who want to go deeper then the "must see"s, who wonder "off the beaten track", and look for hidden gems. Because I know the atmosphere and beauty are often away from crowds and "go go" mood. Festina lente, as Augustus said, or hurry up slowly. Whether you decide to take a walking tour, or visit Rome's incredibile museums or see amazing Villas and archeological sites outside the city, all of my tours are customised so they address your interest the best way. I want that you bring the sunniest memories back home and learn something new. Because the best way to travel is to discover. See you soon in Rome!

Overview of your Rome tour

Visit the most amazing Roman Gallery, founded in early 1600 by Scipione Borghese, a passionate patron of arts. His aim was to collect everything that could cause astonishment and admiration. Well, he succeeded! Today Borghese welcomes Raphael's and Titian's masterpieces, Caravaggio's paintings, and Bernini's incredibile sculptures. Seeing Bernini's Daphne turning into a tree or his Pluto pressing the marble flesh of Proserpina is something you will never forget… Together with the inviting marble mattress of Canova's Venice. We'll compare Classical art to Roman Baroque and you'll understand what made Roman artistic "brand". Ancient Gods will accompany us in every single room, on painted ceilings and 2, 000 year old sculptures. You'll see Roman mosaics depicting famous gladiators, and so many other gems. Keep in mind that the Gallery limits the number of people inside. So be sure to book your spot on time. I'll be more then happy to unveil you the secrets of my favourite Roman Art Gallery.
