The Rome: Villa Medici Official Guided Tour is a guided tour of Villa Medici, one of Rome's most significant Renaissance residences and the seat of the French Academy in Rome since 1725. Built in the sixteenth century and later acquired by Cardinal Ferdinando de' Medici, the villa occupies a commanding position on the Pincian Hill, overlooking the city. Its facade is embedded with ancient Roman reliefs, and the surrounding gardens were laid out in the formal Italian style, featuring fountains, grottos, and centuries-old trees.

The guided tour takes visitors through the villa's principal rooms and grounds, covering the history of the Medici family's patronage, the building's transformation under French stewardship, and the artistic legacy maintained by the Academy to this day. Highlights include the decorated interiors, the loggia, and the historic gardens with their classical sculptural elements. Tickets are for the official guided tour and include access to areas not open during standard visiting hours. For more on planning a visit, see things to do in Rome.
