WHY BOOK THIS TIVOLI PRIVATE TOUR

Tivoli is the old Tibur, famous for its waters. It is built on a travertine cliff and has some beautiful waterfalls besides three historical villas and a Rocca. It’s a day trip. The same view from the train of the rocky path is worth it. From the acropoli, a public bus will take us down to the valley where the Villa of the emperor Hadrian lies: it’s a wonder. The beautiful monumental walks that he designed to enjoy water and nature are still today amazing. Moreover, the centuries added charmed to the structures (Thermal baths, theaters, pools, porticos, gigantic substructions, barracks, and much more) that lost their decoration showing themselves naked and opened to the sky. Then the lunch in the acropoli restaurant is a must, with great food, and eventually wine, while overlooking the cliffs and two ancient temples. In the afternoon I suggest the famous Villa D’Este which had already in the Renaissance surprised its guests with the imposing architecture based on different levels and ledges with fabulous water games displayed by all kinds of fountains, pools, and engineering tricks.

WHY BOOK A ROMAN CASTLES PRIVATE TOUR

With “Castelli Romani” we mean the hilly area south of Rome where different towns have the medieval character of castrum (fortification), towns born on the Volcano slopes, where there are also three beautiful lakes, and that are our escape and paradise in the weekends to enjoy fresh air, good food, honest wines and a lot of legends and tales. Here ancient Roman villas left space for the Renaissance ones. It’s at least a day tour depending on our choices: the towns are many, all very different in story, landscape, and products.
