About Castel Gandolfo
When rain settles over the Alban Hills, Castel Gandolfo's appeal shifts indoors — into the Papal Apartments, the Apostolic Palace corridors and the glass-roofed minibus that rolls through the gardens regardless of weather. The Castel Gandolfo: Papal Apartments and Secret Garden Ticket keeps you under cover while exploring the papal residence, and the Castel Gandolfo Papal Villa Gardens Minibus Tour is a practical wet-weather option that covers the grounds in about an hour without long walks in the open.

Frequently asked questions
Most of Castel Gandolfo's headline sights are indoor or covered: the Papal Apartments, the Apostolic Palace and the garden minibus tour all keep you sheltered while still showing you the papal residence and its grounds. Rain actually thins the crowds, so palace interiors and the Secret Garden feel calmer than on a clear weekend.
