Visita di gruppo ma in realtà ero da sola. I luoghi meravigliosi e la guida, Mario, competente e gentilissimo. Consiglio a tutti!The guide was so knowledgeable and truly helped me understand the areas that we were looking at. I would not have explored the Caracalla Baths if it weren’t part of the tour, but this was my favorite part.
