Step by Step
Join this guided tour for small groups where an expert will tell you the secrets of ancient Rome.
You'll learn about the famous chariot races of the imperial era by visiting the Circus Maximus. At this hippodrome, games were held in which the locals bet on their favourite competitors: gladiators in command of two-wheeled vehicles driven at full speed by four horses.
The adventure will be even more amazing when you pass by the Baths of Caracalla, a historic hot springs complex built in 206 A.D. where Romans bathed and recreated.
Its ancient architecture will dazzle you with marble sculptures, open-air pools and three bathing chambers: Caldarium, Tepidarium and Frigidarium, each with a different water temperature.
