This event page is for those who were unable to book onto the "Explore the hills around Rome" event. When you book onto this event page you will be able to participate in all of the events listed, including:
- This Grotto della Sirene walk through the village of Tivoli;
- This Ponte Nomentaro linear walk;
- Our day trip into Rome to explore The Eternal City;
- and all the other events listed.
Please note that due to our insurance requirements, you will need to book through this page in order to participate in the activities listed on the main event page. If you do not book through here and show up, you will unfortunately not be able to take part in any of the activities.
All attendees will be responsible for their own accommodations and transportation to and from Tivoli. There are a number of very nice pensiones, hotels and guest houses all within walking distance of the Tivoli train station, at a variety of price ranges. Additionally, there may be airbnb-style accommodations if you are travelling in a small group. The monastery is about a 30 minute walk from the centre of the village.
The train from Leonardo da Vinci International Airport (Fiumicino Airport) to Tivoli takes around 2.5 hours, with a change required in Rome. Tickets can be booked on the Trenitalia website, for an advance cost of around €11 one way.
Pay close attention to what you book as some of the journeys actually go to Rome Tiburtina station and then involve a bus to Tivoli. Make sure you do not book to Tivoli Terme, as that is 30 minutes before Tivoli itself.
Meals are not included with this booking but additional information will be provided closer to the event.

As this is in the height of summer, shorts and t-shirts will be the "order of the day". Hiking shoes should be acceptable for most hikes, but trainers will not be appropriate for the Sughereta hike.
To enter the churches and other religious sites, proper attire is required. Shorts are acceptable (not "cut-offs" or jean shorts) but all shirts must have sleeves and contain no offensive language, art, etc.; ODL t-shirts are acceptable. Trousers MUST be worn inside the Vatican - shorts of any kind are not allowed. Shoes should be closed toe and please avoid "socks and sliders"!!
Make sure you have plenty of sunscreen, a good hat and a water bottle. Average temperatures in the region will push 28-33 degrees during the day so plan accordingly. Long trousers may be appropriate for the evenings.
