Despite the odd loud tour guide 🙄.. it was a perfect experience!!!

Really great art museum! If you love art, I'd definitely see. One of my favorite museums. While I don't love art, I do enjoy a good museum and I was impressed with this one. Nice gardens to walk around before or after. Busses right at entrances and going through park.

Excellent museum located in gorgeous park. Museum is perfect scale. 6-8 rooms on each of 2 floors. Perfect amount to take in. Iconic paintings - including a group of Caravaggio’s - and sculptures - including many by Bernini. Great place. Highly recommend.
