Itinerary
Villa d’Este (Skip-The-LIne Tickets Included), masterpiece of the Italian Garden, is included in the UNESCO world heritage list. With its impressive concentration of fountains, nymphs, grottoes, plays of water, and music, it constitutes a much-copied model for European gardens in the mannerist and baroque styles. Walk around the Villa with your private local guide (if option guide included booked), taking in the gardens and posing for photos in front of Bernini-designed fountains while learning about the Cardinal and his lavish life in the Villa. Villa d'Este's fame, however, is due more to its gardens than to the building itself. This most famous Italian-style garden, which has been imitated, reverberates with the sound of so many fountains that inspired the Romantic composer Franz Liszt to write a piano suite called “Fountains of the Villa d'Este.”
The walking passes throught the old medieval centre, ovelooked by the turret-houses, until to arrive to the impressive Temples of Acopoli, placed on a rock from where you have a beautiful skyview to Villa Gregoriana Gardens.
Lunch Time (your own expense) we strongly suggest an incredible location where you will be part of the "History". King Frederick William III of Prussia, Prince Jerome Napoleon, Gabriele D’Annunzio and Pietro Mascagni; Today Secretaries of State and Vice-Presidents of the USA, Hiroito the Emperor of Japan, Princess Margaret of Inghilterra, singer Yoko Ono and the first man on the moon Armstrong. This is only part of the gallery of the celebrities who have chosen this restaurant.
Hadrian’s Villa at Tivoli (Skip-The-Line Tickets Included) is one of the Italian UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Built by the request of the Emperor Hadrian, the Villa is a monumental living complex that even today continues to display the lavishness and enormous power of Ancient Rome. The magnificent Hadrian’s Villa (Villa Adriana), the former holiday home of Emperor Hadrian. It was built in the 2nd century AD. It's more similar to a small village than a home in today’s sense of the word. Hadrian's Villa was a complex of over 30 buildings, covering an area of at least 1 square kilometers (c. 250 acres) of which much is still not excavated. The Villa was the greatest Roman example of an Alexandrian garden, recreating a sacred landscape. The complex included palaces, several baths, theatre, temples, libraries, staterooms, and quarters for courtiers, praetorians, and slaves.

Fantastic experience in both places , strongly recommended !!! Also the driver was excellent as well as the comfortable car !
Villa d’Este is fabulous. The beginning of the tour is all about the frescoes and while interesting, we couldn’t wait to get to the gardens. The fountains are spectacular and blew us away. We had a great lunch afterwards at Sabilla in Tivoli which we highly recommend. Villa Adriana is massive and it’s hard to see the entire estate in one visit, so be prepared to cover a lot of ground! Our driver Paulo was fantastic and interesting, and also had tons of knowledge and really made the day a five star event.
