Your driver will pick you at the cruise pier and will takeyou to the slopes of the Apennine
Mountains East of Rome. You will meet your guide on arrival in Tivoli. In the fabled medieval city of Tivoli you
visit two spectacular sites. The Villa d'Este is home to arguably the
most spectacular fountains and gardens of the world. This palatial
residence of Cardinal d'Este (son of Lucrecia Borgia) harbors over 1,000
fountains and clearly illustrates the opulent lifestyle of Renaissance
aristocracy. Next stop is the former country estate of the Emperor
Hadrian. Ruler at the height of Rome's power and influence, Hadrian
fancied himself an architect and patron of the arts. The ruins of this
Villa bear witness to his talents, vision and empirical taste. Your guide compares and contrasts these two private dream residences,
separated by a thousand years yet similar in vision and grandeur.
Tour Highlights
Tivoli Gardens and fountains, Emperor Hadrian ancient residence, Tivoli medieval town, views of Appenine mountain range and coast of Mediterranean Sea
