Itinerary
You will discover the famous Baths of Caracalla together with your private expert guide. The baths were built in the 3rd century and named after emperor Caracalla who commissioned the building of the enormous bathhouse complex together with his father, emperor Septimius Severus. This was one of the largest buildings in Roman times together with the Colosseum. The baths spanning 11 hectares, at the time richly decorated with beautiful mosaics, frescos and marble cladding were the largest bathhouse complex of Rome with room for over 2,500 people. Common people were also welcome in the complex of cold, warm and hot baths, pools, massage rooms, dressing rooms, receptions, and even libraries and brothels. In addition to hygiene, the baths primarily had a social and sports function.

About Rome
Rome layers nearly three thousand years of history into one walkable city, from the Colosseum and Forum to Baroque piazzas and Vatican art.
Ancient Rome is still in plain sight. The Colosseum, the Roman Forum and the Palatine Hill sit together at the city's heart, the Pantheon still stands with its open oculus, and fragments of temples and aqueducts turn up between apartment blocks. Across the Tiber, Vatican City holds St Peter's Basilica, the Vatican Museums and Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel ceiling.
Top-ranked sights in Rome: Colosseum, Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel.
