I really dont understand why its impossible to find a tour to only Hadrians villa. They all go to Villa D'Este, and they ALWAYS short change the times for both (only an hour). The site is acres in size and anything less than 2 hours, especially for the time it takes to get there, makes zero sense to me. Yet I cant find any. Does anyone know of any, that wont break the bank?
Alternatively, I really dont mind going myself, To be honest I hate tours. But when the logistics are a bit much Ill take a tour. And as far as I can tell its kind of a pain to get to there without a tour. Its possibly im over thinking. Im staying near the republica metro stop. As far as i know the simplest, but slowest way is to take metro to some bus station, take a bus to tivoli and take a transfer directly to the site. Ive done some complex day trips and for some reason doing this solo is putting me off.
