We offer an out-of-town excursion in complete comfort. You will be accompanied to Tivoli by a private car with driver who will take you to this medieval town known since ancient times for its wealth of water and thermal baths. It is no coincidence that emperors first and then cardinals decided to build their villas in Tivoli in order to enjoy the benefits of the sulphurous waters and appreciate the less sultry temperatures compared to those of the city of Rome. Inside Tivoli there is the very famous Villa d'Este. The UNESCO heritage villa features terraced gardens decorated with a hundred fountains from which jets of water gush thanks to the natural pressure of the water that descends from the hill. Particularly renowned is the organ fountain famous for the sounds it emits, delighting guests strolling through the gardens of Cardinal D'Este. A magical place to unwind and get closer to the history of humanity. Book now!

According to some historians, Tivoli, founded with the name of Tibur, has even more ancient origins than Rome: the small village born in 1215 BC. and the future capital of Italy... almost 400 years later, in 753 BC. In the Middle Ages Tivoli was heavily involved in feudal disputes. The city sided with the Ghibellines to escape the hegemony of the Church... but it failed and in the 15th century. he returned under the Church. During the Second World War the city of Tivoli, which was on the route of the Nazi retreat, was repeatedly bombed by the Anglo-American air force which aimed to interrupt the railway and road communication routes between Rome and the Adriatic. From the 1980s to today, thanks also to the recognition obtained from UNESCO, Tivoli has rediscovered a very strong tourist vocation. The many Roman remains, temples and villas make Tivoli one of the most valuable Roman cities full of history and tradition.
