Mamma Mia! Caracalla Baths Tour in Rome w/ Local Guide & skip-the-line tickets
Discover the incredible Baths of Caracalla on this 2-hour private tour together with your local guide and get a feel for how the Romans used to spend their free time at the spa. Meet your guide at the entrance and your tour of the second largest public baths in Rome will begin. Take a step back in time to the Roman Empire days as you explore the ruins at a leisurely pace, learn the history behind the establishment and understand it was more than just a public bathing space. It was an ancient day leisure center, which included a library, a gym and gardens. Built between 212 and 217 AD, during the reigns of Emperor Septimius Severus and his son Caracalla, the free spa was capable of hosting more than 1500 Romans at a time. The Baths of Caracalla remained in use until the 6th century when the Gothic War destroyed the most part, but the remains are still outstanding and very well preserved. Admire this masterpiece of Roman architecture with us on this tour!

Where this sits in Rome
Rome is about 33 min by road from Rome Fiumicino Airport. Three thousand years stacked on top of each other, still busy being a capital. Stay central and walk — the Forum, the Pantheon and a dozen churches worth the detour are closer together than the map suggests, and the city rewards wandering more than ticking off.
