LAZIO

Why coosing Lazio for your holiday in Italy

The Lazio region is best represented by its capital: Rome. Historic city full of wonders to discover at every corner and certainly a few days are not enough to explore all its beauties and its best museums.

If you are attracted by Rome’s past and its extraordinary monuments you cannot help but visit the Colosseum including the Roman Forum and Palatine Hill. The Vatican city, on the other hand, collects within its museums an immense artistic and monumental heritage to which every tourist who visits Rome cannot help but dedicate a stage of their stay.

We will let you discover the masterpieces of Greek and Roman sculpture, the splendid Raphael Rooms, the Tapestry and Geographical Map Galleries and with the extended tour also the Vatican Art Gallery. With family tours we will also guide you among the antiquities in the Egyptian Museum. A special tour that includes a visit to St. Peter’s Basilica will make you discover the heart of Christianity.

Sometimes the need to stay away from the Capital noise and traffic is really strong, but luckily Italy is full of magnificent places that are worth visiting and some of these are just a few hours away from the eternal city!

In fact, the surroundings of Rome hide many spectacular places, perfect for a day trip or a weekend: historic sites, evocative villages, enchanting gardens, breathtaking lakes and spas accessible free of charge for those looking for a bit of relaxation and well being.

Another ideal location for a trip outside Rome is historic Tivoli, which boasts of being even older than Rome itself! Just over 30 kilometers from the eternal city, this municipality offers its visitors an infinite number of monuments and places of interest to discover and visit.

 

Even if the places of interest are truly numerous, two architectural structures are absolutely not to be missed. These are the two symbolic villas of the city: Villa Adriana and Villa d’Este. The first, built in the 2nd century AD, was the home of the famous emperor Hadrian. This wonderful villa, which was once even larger than the center of Imperial Rome, has a very classic appearance as can be seen from the central basin surrounded by typical Roman statues. It is the largest and most luxurious residence ever built in Italy and boasts an impressive collection of temples, theatres, spas and swimming pools.

Villa d’Este, on the other hand, was built in perfect Renaissance style in the 16th century, and is famous for its wonderful trees and gardens, as well as its spectacular waterfalls and fountains, including the Fontana dell’Ovato and the Cento Fontane. An architectural masterpiece to be admired and photographed!
