Day Trip to Ninfa Gardens & Sermoneta with Rome Your Way Tours | Castle

Just a short ride south from Rome, Rome Your Way Tours offers an immersive day trip that seamlessly blends natural beauty with centuries of Italian history. This journey begins with a comfortable transfer through the fertile plains of Agro Pontino before reaching the remarkable Ninfa Gardens. Celebrated by the New York Times as one of the most romantic gardens worldwide, this verdant sanctuary features over 1,300 plant species, including giant rhubarb, bamboo groves, and flowering Judas trees. Gentle waterfalls thread through the landscape, creating a setting both tranquil and timeless—a place where writers like Virginia Woolf once sought inspiration.

After soaking in this botanical marvel, travelers enjoy a traditional lunch at a local agriturismo, tasting authentic flavors steeped in regional tradition. The afternoon continues with a scenic drive to Sermoneta, a village famed for its remarkably preserved medieval architecture. The town’s defensive walls, ancient cathedral, and the imposing Schloss Sermoneta castle stand as testaments to its storied past.
