Our tour guide was fantastic. He was very knowledgeable and easily answered all of our questions with interesting facts. We were thrilled to learn about the antics of the Borghese family in such a great way. The art is unimaginably beautiful. The muses certainly knew what they were doing when they put together that collection!
