Rome: Doria Pamphilj Gallery Guided Tour

Step inside one of Rome's most spectacular private palaces with this guided tour of the Doria Pamphilj Gallery. Your expert guide leads you through golden halls and ornate galleries housing over 650 paintings, including masterpieces by Caravaggio and Velázquez. Skip the queues with fast-track entry and explore centuries of artistic treasures still owned by the noble Doria Pamphilj family.

The palace itself tells the story of Roman aristocracy through its gilded ceilings, silk-draped rooms and crystal chandeliers. Your guide shares fascinating stories about the popes, princes and patrons who shaped Rome's artistic legacy whilst you admire works by Titian, Raphael and other masters displayed in their original aristocratic setting.

After exploring the gallery, you can relax in the tranquil courtyard café or browse the bookshop. The central location makes it perfect to combine with other Vatican Museums tours or Capitoline Museums visits for a comprehensive art experience in Rome.
