Description
Take a comfortable transport to the little town of Tivoli, located a few kilometers from Rome, in a splendid natural environment between the Eternal City and the high hills to the east of Rome. Since ancient times this little town has been blessed by a great climate and always had a key importance due to its location.
The most remarkable architectural complex is Villa Adriana, dating from the Ancient Roman time, created in the 2nd century AD by the Emperor Hadrian. It combines different architectural styles from Egypt, Rome and Athens, in the shape of an "ideal city". For this reason a visit to the Villa cannot be missed: it is a masterpiece that uniquely brings together the highest symbols of cultures of the world in ancient times. The Villa covers more than 120 hectares and was the House of the Emperors for more than 50 years.
After this amazing visit, come to discover the Renaissance-style Villa d’Este, a gorgeous palatial setting surrounded by a spectacular terraced garden. Enjoy the beauty of its cascades, water tanks, and fountains. Villa d'Este is a masterpiece of the Italian Gardens, decorated with a massive and impressive number of fountain nymphs, grottos and marvelous courtyards inspired by the gardens of Babylon, one of the wonders of ancient world.
Strongly desired by the Cardinal Ippolito II d'Este, the Villa was enlarged and enriched by all his descendants with the contribution of incredible artists of the times, like Gianlorenzo Bernini.
Return to Rome in the afternoon.

Muy buena organización
Mucho mejor de lo que imaginaba. Ideal para tener un panorama general y después volver a lo que más te gustó. Nos pasaron toda la información por mail el día anterior, muy claro. Aprovechamos guía local en español más de lo que pensábamos. Si volvemos a Roma, lo repetimos.

Nos encantó
No podría haber salido mejor. Nos pasaron toda la información por mail el día anterior, muy claro. El wifi que prometían no funcionaba. Si están por Roma, no se lo pierdan.

Muy recomendable
Lo elegimos por las fotos y resultó incluso mejor en persona. Muy buena relación precio calidad. El chofer nos fue contando qué era cada cosa hasta Natural Environment. El único detalle fue que faltó agua disponible, sobre todo con el calor. Una experiencia que vale cada minuto.

Very good overall. We went back to Joyas de la Unesco on our own the next day. It costs more than going alone, but it saves you all the planning. The route is well thought out, no backtracking or wasted time. What I liked least was the final stop, it felt rushed. A good experience on balance.

Good, with caveats
Does what it says on the tin. Natural Environment alone makes the trip worthwhile. A really practical way to get your bearings on day one. The Local guide in Spanish is a smart touch. The audio cut out on a couple of stretches. There is room to improve, but no regrets.

Imperdible
Lo elegimos por las fotos y resultó incluso mejor en persona. Si lo comparás con hacerlo por tu cuenta, conviene. Lo de guía local en español es un acierto. No lo dudes, reservalo.
