Make your way to the Baths of Caracalla in central Rome to meet your private guide and begin your tour. Constructed during the reigns of Septimius Severus and Caracalla, the baths were once among the largest of their kind in Rome.

During your tour, explore the park area by the Colosseum and listen as your guide sheds light on life during the Roman Empire. Admire the domed octagons, porticoes, and vaulted rooms for which the baths are famous, and learn of the uses to which the spaces were put thousands of years ago.

The location was facinating. The large location made you wonder how it could possible be constructed. Our guide pulled all together for us.

A walk back in time

Nicholas_B, Aug 2019

We saw a news report in the USA on the Baths of Caracalla and decided to see it, Our guide Michele Mattei met us at the front of the site and walked us through. Michele’s background as an archeologist was perfect. We had a very informative and fun tour. The amazing work in recovering the site coupled with Michele’s great description made this an unforgettable tour.

Well worth the money! Our tour guide...

Well worth the money! Our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and he even gave each of us an architectural map that helped to envision the baths as they once were during the glory days of the Roman empire. Without this tour, we wouldn't have understood the purpose of the various rooms within the baths, and we would have viewed the entire structure as simply more ruins. Highly recommend this tour!!

Maravillosa quede muy satisfecho
