Explore Villa d’Este’s fountains and frescoes, then discover the Roman ruins of Hadrian’s Villa on a private Tivoli tour.

About this tour

Discover two remarkable historic sites on a private Tivoli tour of Villa d’Este and Hadrian’s Villa. At Villa d’Este, stroll through the fountain-filled gardens and see the frescoes in the former apartments of Cardinal Ippolito d’Este. The villa’s historic fountains bring a sense of spectacle to the grounds.

Continue to the ruins of Hadrian’s Villa, where ancient Roman architecture offers a glimpse into the scale and skill of the empire’s builders. A driver and tour guide accompany the visit, and an air-conditioned vehicle provides transport between the sites. Entrance fees are not included, so plan to purchase admission separately; food and drink are also excluded.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 5.00 from 1 review. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in Rome
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.1. Top 48% in Rome means it ranks in the top 48% of tours in Rome by this score.
