How to go there?
Getting there from Rome is quite a challenge. There are two main options.
The first option is to take a regional train from Tiburtina station to Tivoli station. From Tivoli station, walk towards Tivoli town centre and buy the local bus ticket (Bus 4) at the Tabucchi (tobacco shop) near Piazza. It is too far to walk from the town centre and the local bus will bring you to the entrance.
The second option is to take a metro to Ponte Mammolo. Once you exit and at the same level, walk towards the buy a bus ticket from the food and beverage shop. I will recommend you to buy the return ticket as well since you may not be able to get it at Tivoli, unless you have decided to return Rome by train. Go up to the ground level and find the bus bay that shows Tivoli. You probably need to ask the driver where to alight or you can rely on Google Maps. From the bus stop, you need to walk at least 2km before you reach the entrance.
For the first option, the frequency of the regional train service is pretty low, so make sure you find out the schedule first. It may not be easy to find the location to buy the local bus ticket if you are not familiar with the place. For the second option, the bus journey will take longer time, and is further subjected to traffic conditions. The bus is not air-conditioned and could be hot during summer time. There is also a fair amount of walking and alternatively, you could take this bus to the town centre and change to the local bus.
If you want to go Villa d'Este next, buy the bus ticket at the Villa Adriana ticketing counter. The bus stop is just right beside the ticketing counter. The bus will bring you to the town centre and it will just take a few min walk to the entrance.
