- Tivoli - The ancient city of Tivoli, referred to as Tibur Superbum by Virgil in his Aeneid, boasts a history that predates Rome, dating back to 1215 BC. It was once the most significant meeting point for various cultures.
This is evidenced by the Sanctuary of Hercules Victor, a structure from the 2nd century BC that remains visible today. Modern Tivoli is renowned for its thermal baths and three stunning villas: the breathtaking Villa d’Este and the archaeological site of Villa Adriana (Hadrian’s Villa), both recognized as UNESCO World Heritage Sites, along with the scenic Villa Gregoriana, managed by the FAI (The Italian Environmental Fund). The picturesque landscapes of this area were beloved by poets, painters, and wealthy aristocrats who visited during the 19th-century Grand Tour.
- Villa d’Este - Villa D’Este is a Renaissance summer estate celebrated for its beautifully maintained gardens, fountains, and highly acclaimed frescoes.
- Castel Gandolfo - Nestled in the hills overlooking the sparkling waters of Lake Albano, Castel Gandolfo is the site of the pope’s summer residence and offers an ideal day trip from Rome. Its verdant gardens, opulently decorated papal palace, and 25 hectares of farmland abundant with fresh produce provide a serene escape from the city’s hustle and bustle. Additionally, since March 2014, when Pope Francis opened the Apostolic Palace to the public, it has been ready for exploration.
