Rome Photo Fun Tours’ motto is QUALITY over quantity. That's why our tours are for two people, or four if booked as a group. You will benefit from the undivided attention of a professional ready to lead you and answer all your questions during a photo workshop going from the outstanding Hadrian Villa to the elegance of a Villa d'Este, surrounded by lush vegetation adorned with fountains and water games. Such a well-planned one-day journey is the perfect opportunity for a calm full-immersion photo workshop that, spanning from the golden hour to the blue hour, will fulfill your desire to portray art, nature, Roman architecture, and landscape photography. The over a hundred 5-star reviews lauding my professionalism and friendliness are my best business cards. If this tour is not available on the date you want to book it, it is because I will be on one of my 7-day photography workshops in Tuscany, Umbria, Apulia, or Rome and surrounding areas, offered with Italy Photo Fun Tours.

  • Largo Marguerite Yourcenar, 1, 00010 Tivoli RM, Italy
    In the morning mist of the countryside, amongst olive trees, Mediterranean pines and tall cypresses we will take advantage of the Golden Hour to shoot photos of the well preserved ancient ruins immersed in the vast park that once was the luxurious villa of the famous Roman emperor Hadrian. In a sort of out of time atmosphere, we will photograph the fantastic swimming pools, buildings, baths, fountains, temples and even a theatre still witnessing the greatness of ancient Rome in terms of architecture, landscaping, and engineering.
    180 minutes
  • Villa d'Este, Tivoli, Italy
    Then, making a jump in time of about fifteen hundred years (the Hadrian villa was built around 120 a.C. while Villa d'Este works started around 1560) we will proceed to Villa d'Este. Here the photography setting will be completely different, but not less amazing and fascinating than the one of the morning tour. In fact Villa d’Este rooms and ceilings are all adorned by beautiful frescos and painting. From the elegant interiors, we will then go visit the famous lush Italian Garden surrounding the Baroque building to photograph the many fountains, the beautiful grottos, and the manicured park.

I learned a tremendous amount that will help me take better photos in the future. Giulio is quite knowledgeable and willing to share that knowledge and passion for photography. Hadrian's Villa and the Villa d'Este are both beautiful sites and I learned a lot about composition, angles, and lighting that I will be able to apply at other places. Giulio is also very personable and it was a fantastic day. I highly recommend his tours.

I made the Tour to Tivoli with Giulio which was already the 4. tour which I made with Giulio. After the stunning 3 tours in 2021 it was sure that I will do another tour with him when I come back to Rome. So punctual as always he picked me early in the morning at my hotel from where we drove together to Tivoli which took approximately 45 minutes.. Arriving there the photo tour started. As always I was a bit nervous at the beginning and needed advice. So he was as always very helpful with explanation concerning the settings and the composition of the photos and later he made great suggestions to improve the photos which I took by myself. Additionally he is a very patient teacher also when you don’t understand something immediately. His extremly helpful explanations are given in a way that you keep them in your mind to use them also after the end of the tour. And what was most impressive to see is that you can see how much he loves the photographie and the possibility to share his knowledge (not only about photographie but also about history, the places you visit and so on) with his customers. No question is too much and also no further foto stop if there is something interesting even if it takes more time than expected. To summarize it he is a great teacher and guide, an excellent photographer, a safe driver and a kind and great man. So I highly recommend to book this or any other tour with him! You would miss a wonderful experience and time to see parts of Rome in a unique way. Thanks a lot for everything, Giulio!
