Leave Rome behind to explore Hadrian’s Villa and Villa d’Este, two UNESCO World Heritage Sites rich in history, architecture, and fountains.

About this tour

Escape Rome’s bustle for Tivoli, where grand villas and garden fountains tell stories of imperial ambition and Renaissance splendor. This 300-minute excursion visits Hadrian’s Villa and Villa d’Este, both UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

At Hadrian’s Villa, explore the 2nd-century retreat of Emperor Hadrian, an amateur architect whose designs drew inspiration from places across the Roman Empire. Then discover Villa d’Este, built in the 16th century by Cardinal Ippolito d’Este. Its remarkable fountains, designed by Pirro Ligorio, are a defining feature of the estate. Entrance tickets to both villas are included, and transport is available to and from Rome.

See two distinct chapters of Italian history in one Tivoli Villa Tour, from Hadrian’s inventive architectural vision to the elaborate gardens of the Renaissance. Book your visit and trade the city’s pace for a day among celebrated villas and fountains.

How this score is calculated

This tour has no TourTruth score yet: Viator doesn't show a usable rating for it. It gets a score as soon as a provider lists one.

How the score works
  • 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. Tours without a usable provider rating are not scored.
