The driver was really friendly and it was easy to see the papal complex via the minibus - walking would have been too exhausting.

This was really great! Got to learn a lot from the audio guide.

Your Experience

Spanning 55 hectares, the Papal Palace complex is a sight to behold. It overlooks the sparkling waters of Lake Albano and is a great escape from the hustle and bustle of Rome. The views of the lake and surrounding hills are spectacular. It is only recently that Pope Francis allowed a huge portion of these premises to be open to the public. Use this opportunity to spend time admiring the lovely tree-lined gardens, and of course, the remains of Emperor Domitian's residence. The minibus is eco-friendly and you can explore the gardens at ease from the comfort of your seat. Listen to the informative audio guide and catch some interesting papal trivia as you're being driven around. By the end of the tour, you will know which pontiff installed a swimming pool, and who put down their resignation and then laid low in Castel Gandolfo for months!
