Villa d’Este & Hadrian’s Villa Tickets & Transfer

Visit 2 large villas built during the Roman Empire on a guided day trip with a transfer from Rome. Take in the historic Hadrian’s Villa and stroll through the gardens of the beautiful Villa d’Este.

Escape the hustle and bustle of Rome and embark on a tour through the lush countryside that surrounds the city. Your exploration will lead you to two remarkable historical sites – the ancient Villa d’Este and Hadrian’s Villa. This exclusive experience comes complete with private transportation, allowing you the luxury of discovering these treasures at your own pace.

Your adventure begins as a private driver picks you up from your hotel, offering a comfortable journey to your first destination: Hadrian’s Villa. Located just a few kilometers before reaching Tivoli, Hadrian’s Villa is an expansive complex that stands as a testament to the grandeur of the Roman Empire. Larger than the center of Rome itself, this villa was a marvel of its time, boasting thermae, libraries, palaces, a theater, and residential quarters.

As you walk through the sprawling grounds, you’ll be transported back in time, feeling the unique emotions evoked by the well-preserved remnants of Hadrian’s grand vision. The villa, commissioned by Emperor Hadrian, served as his retreat from the bustling city of Rome during the latter part of his life. Marvel at the enormity of the villa and explore notable features like the Maritime Theater—a round portico with a circular pool and an island where the emperor supposedly spent solitary moments of relaxation.

After immersing yourself in the history of Hadrian’s Villa, your private driver will guide you to Tivoli. Prepare to explore the enchanting garden and fountains of Villa d’Este. Built in the 16th century by Pirro Ligorio for Cardinal Ippolito d’Este, this country residence is a masterpiece of Renaissance architecture and landscaping.

As you stroll through the meticulously designed gardens, adorned with fountains, sculptures, and lush greenery, you’ll understand why Villa d’Este is celebrated for its beauty. Allow the tranquility of the surroundings to captivate your senses, making this journey through ancient history and Renaissance elegance a truly unforgettable experience.
