Take a memorable journey to Italy's celebrated Garden of Ninfa, a breathtaking natural monument, and explore the medieval hilltop town of Sermoneta during this enriching guided tour. A delicious lunch served at a local restaurant completes your experience.

Meet your guide at centrally located meeting point in Rome in the morning. Enjoy a short train ride with the help of our hostess and reach Sermoneta, one of the best preserved medieval towns in Italy. Sermoneta features a 13th-century Romanesque cathedral called Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta and an enormous castle which we will visit. The town's surrounding walls and stunning Baroque architecture make it look like something from a fairy tale.

After exploring the castle, head to a lovely local restaurant and sit down for a delicious lunch featuring typical Italian dishes (set menu). With a full belly, settle into a comfortable van for a ride to the Garden of Ninfa, which is said to be the most romantic garden in the world. This 260-acre (105-ha) garden is filled with shadowy medieval ruins overgrown by thick, exotic plant life and grassy meadows all around. Marvel at rambling roses growing over tall stone walls and trickling waterways throughout this otherworldly pocket of nature.

Your day ends with a relaxing train drive back to the meeting point.
