My family has now taken three tours with Context in Rome and, as with the first two tours, this one was amazing and even better than anticipated! Patrizia is a wonderful guide -- so, so knowledgeable and so good with our 9 year old son! The Villa Borghese tickets are time-limited to two hours but Patrizia was able to guide us through and hit the highlights -- telling us stories about the individual paintings and sculptures that made them come alive and will definitely help us remember what we learned, while also giving us some of the background about how the museum developed and changed over the years. I had expected to love seeing the Vatican and Colosseum (and I did), but the Villa Borghese feels like a hidden gem -- an unexpected treasure that I would never have appreciated as much but for Patrizia!!

Well presented for the children. If anything, don’t be afraid to push the audience to go deeper into art techniques and history.

We loved Dony! Super high energy, very engaging for the children, and wonderful to share the larger context of the Galleria Borghese. Given that energy levels naturally get tired by the end of the tour, he should figure out a special surprise by the end of the tour to reengage the kids who get tired. But besides that, he was amazing!
