Vincenzo was a fantastic guide. We had him twice in the Doria Pamphilj and the palazzo barbarini. He was very knowledgeable and could answer all our questions. He was a fun and interesting guide and would highly recommend him.

We had a wonderful tour of the Doria Pamphilj Gallery with Vincenzo. He clearly has a deep knowledge, but what really made the experience special was his genuine enthusiasm and care. You can feel how much he loves the place, the history, and the art, and how important it is to him that the group truly enjoys the tour. The explanations were rich and varied – from historical context, to art history, to small anecdotes that brought everything to life. I would absolutely recommend this tour.

Velasquez's portrait of Innocent X alone is worth a visit. Wonderful place full of fabulous works. The art collection of the Pamphilj family is set up as it was customary in the 700s, this while penalizing a little the vision of the works placed on the walls above, makes the visit fascinating because it makes you take a step back in time by reliving the authentic atmosphere of a noble house unlike traditional museums that are sometimes a little aseptic.

Vincent was fab. I hope you know via a completely screwed up. Vincent didn’t get any order from you to meet us. We were lucky enough to be able to reach him on the phone and he rushed over. He was great! What what will you do about the problem of your inefficiency? I expect some kind of refund. Please contact me in person if you wish to discuss this further.

Vincenzo was an amazing tour guide! He was very passionate about the art and was incredibly engaging! We learned so much on the tour with him, our only regret was not being able to book him for our Vatican tour as well! A true pro who is art savvy and knowledgeable, would recommend!!

Vincenzo was the very best guide we had on all our tours with Viator this trip to Rome. He told such interesting stories about the most famous painting and sculptures in the Doria Pamphilij. He was warm and so animated with his explanations. The tour was well worth it because there are so many special works of art and such beautiful architecture in the centre of Rome. Bravo Vincenzo!

I had already participated in a truly fantastic walking tour of the Colosseum and the Imperial Forums in 2021, and finding myself in Rome again, I did not hesitate to contact Vincenzo again to carry out another visit with him. I totally trusted his expert opinion and let myself be convinced to visit the palace and the Doria Pamphili gallery. I must say that this time too Vincenzo did not disappoint us. He showed us a little gem of Rome that few know about and which remains "apart" compared to much more well-known monuments or museums. Truly a gem to visit. Vincenzo, super engaging, held our attention from start to finish. I highly recommend it to everyone!

We had an absolutely amazing visit of Galleria Doria Pamphili, full of stories and anecdotes that hands the tour truly memorable. Rome is full of art and beauty, and it can be so overwhelming that it is often hard to retain it all. But with Vincenzo’s incredibile knowledge, his anecdotes and fun way of recounting the history of art, this visit will remain deeply impressed in our hearts and minds. Highly recommended

Thanks to Vincenzo we appreciated every beam of light on Caravaggio's works catapulted into a fantastic seventeenth-century Rome. We recommend it to art lovers who wish to be enveloped by the magic of the splendid works in front of them. Thanks Vincenzo.
