They are owned by the Rockefeller Foundation.

NOTES
The garden is open from March 14th to November 2nd 2014, everyday except Mondays (Open on Monday April 21st and on Monday June 2nd). Guided tours of the gardens take place twice a day: at 11 am and at 3.30 pm for a minimum of 6 pax to a maximum of 30 pax. During solar time period for security reasons the afternoon tour will start at 2.30 pm. In the event of bad weather, tours are cancelled.
The visit lasts about 1 hour and 30 minutes and can be quite difficult as the first hour of the tour involves uphill walking on uneven terrain as far as the top of the promontory. Since the downhill route is different to the one going up, the guide cannot leave participants behind to be picked up on return; it is therefore recommended to warn all participants of the difficulty of the tour. No chance to visit the inside of the Villa.
