Buses leave all day approximately every 30 minutes. The total price from Rome to Licenza should be about Lit. More trains run from the Tiburtina station, and more trains stop at Tivoli than at Mandela. For a schedule of trains, see the excellent Web site of the Ferrovie dello Stato . On Monday, the site is closed to the public.
Admission is free.
Please ask the wonderful guard, Sig. Antonio Muzi, for a free copy of our Horace's Villa Project brochure, which he will be glad to give you. There is no restaurant or snack bar at the villa, so bring a picnic or else plan to drive another 7-8 minutes up to the lovely town of Licenza , where you can have lunch at the acclaimed restaurant, Il Fiocco. Closer to the site is the restaurant Il Boschetto, which you will see off the right side of the Via Licinese on your way from the site to the town. Cineto is located off the Via Valeria Tiburtina, past the autostrada entrance on the way to Subiaco.
