Let your guide bring to life the impressive ruins of the best-preserved baths in Rome. Marvel at their gigantic walls and wander through the monumental rooms of the Caracalla thermal complex. Be an Ancient Roman for an hour as you go through the exact steps of a typical day at the baths in the 3rd century AD. Discover the bizarre range of services offered in this ancient-days-SPA for the wellness of body and mind.
Appreciate the architectural greatness of Imperial Rome and be surprised by the abilities of the ancient engineers.

Finally, have a close look at the geometric motifs on the beautiful mosaics all over the place.

Then head towards what is considered to have been the largest structure for public games ever built by mankind. Standing where once lied the Circus Maximus learn about the glorious Roman “Ludi”, the spectacular multi-venue celebrations held for up to several days. Let your guide drive your imagination through chariot races, gladiator fights, and the clamor of the public while walking on the soil where they used to take place.

Con il suo modo di raccontare ti da l’impressione di essere davvero lì, quando le terme erano cuore pulsante della Roma imperiale. E questo senza tralasciare un ottimo inquadramento storico e tutti i necessari riferimenti. Veramente consigliato!

We skipped the Circus Maximus portion of the tour due to torrential rain.
