  2. the second artistic-institutional and thematic that includes the first kind and a tour of the Vasella room, the Gardens, the collection of Carriages and it costs 10ā‚¬.

Reservation is mandatory for both of them and may be made online or calling the number +39 0639967557Ā  from Monday through Friday, 9:00 a.m.ā€“1:00 p.m. and 2:00-5:00 p.m., Saturday, 9:00 a.m.ā€“2:00 p.m., closed on Sunday; or at the Infopoint, Salita di Montecavallo, 15 on the days in which the Palace is open, from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

You will be astonished by the great hall of the cuirassiers, the tapestries, the frescoes, the furniture decorating the rooms, the beautiful Murano lamps, the majestic wooden ceilings. The tour is guided by volunteer personnel recruited through agreements with the University of Rome ā€œLa Sapienzaā€ and the Italian Touring Club. I liked a lot the carriages and if the weather is good the tour of the gardens is very beautiful.
