This was a great tour departing for Tivoli and visiting the two UNESCO world heritage sites there. Full day, with stop in town for lunch. The tour was well run and our guide and transport was great. Bring water and other necessities like umbrella. You are on your feet a long time and really would be a challenge to get around if you have mobility issues. I would confirm with the company on specifics. We did not do the tour lunch option and there are many restaurants in the charming town of Tivoli to choose from. Hadrian's Villa in the morning, stop in Tivoli for lunch, then meet up near entry of Villa d'Este for 2nd tour. The fountains at Villa d'Estewere sadly not on, after some heavy local rainfall. Fascinating to see the ingenuity at Hadrian's Villa and make that connection of the emperor to other world sites. Meeting point was well described and we had no trouble finding it -- note that when you arrive at the street side metro stop location, it has two entry points A & B, which are well marked.
