Choose your Tour<\/h2>\n

Each palace and each villa, has its own unique charm. Make your choice and I\u2019ll guide you to discover these extraordinary places. Take note, however, that the Borghese Gallery must be booked largely in advance, the Colonna Princes open the doors of their palace only on Saturdays, and Villa Farnesina is open only in the morning and never on Sunday.<\/h3> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Private guided tour of the Doria-Pamphilj Palace<\/strong><\/h2>\n

A small Versailles, in via del Corso, this palazzo is still inhabited by the Doria-Pamphilj family, who opens its doors to visitors.<\/h3> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

The extraordinary charm of the Pamphilj Gallery lies precisely in its ability to convey the splendor and exquisite taste of the Roman princely families.<\/p>\n

I will guide you through thousands of paintings hanging on the walls. Among the masterpieces not to be missed are the famous portrait of the family Pope, Innocenzo X Pamphilj, brought to life by an inspired\u00a0Velasquez<\/b>, the vibrant and sensual touch that\u00a0Titian<\/b>\u00a0gives to Salome, Mary Magdalene painted by a young\u00a0Caravaggio<\/b>, and the unforgettable portrait that\u00a0Raphael<\/b>\u00a0made of his friends.<\/p>\n

Private guided tour of the Barberini Palace<\/strong><\/h2>\n

It is the size of a royal palace. The baroque pomp is revealed in the monumental staircase of the genius who was Gianlorenzo Bernini, and the glorious frescoes in the hall by Pietro da Cortona, are second in size only to the Sistine Chapel.<\/h3> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n \n

In this superb setting, paintings of the Renaissance, the Baroque, the eighteenth century, and those works that made Rome the capital of art, are exhibited.<\/p> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

Private guided tour of Villa Farnesina<\/strong><\/h2>\n

If only for Raphael, for the splendid Galatea plowing through the waters, for the loggia frescoed with the fable of Amore and Psyche, this villa is worth the trip to Rome.<\/h3> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
