We’ll begin our journey with a visit to the Pyramid of Cestius, an authentic Egyptian monument in the heart of Rome, symbolizing the influence of Egypt in the ancient capital. Then, we’ll continue along the beautiful Appian Way, walking on the original pavement of one of the most important roads of the Roman Empire, immersed in an atmosphere that will make you feel like you’ve stepped back in time.

Next, we’ll visit the grand Baths of Caracalla, a thermal complex that tells the story of the luxury and power of the imperial era, with fascinating ruins that give you a glimpse of Roman life at its peak.

A special moment of the tour will be the visit to the Catacombs. For about 30 minutes, you will join a group with an official catacomb guide who will lead you through the underground of Rome, revealing the history of the early Christians and the burial practices of the time.

We will then pass by the Church of Domine Quo Vadis, a small but significant corner of Christian spirituality, and head towards the majestic Mausoleum of Cecilia Metella, standing along the Appian Way as a symbol of the power of ancient Roman nobility.

We’ll also make a stop at Villa of Maxentius, one of the lesser-known imperial complexes, surrounded by nature and the remains of the Circus of Maxentius. This is a hidden gem, far from the usual tourist routes, allowing you to discover Rome in a whole new light.

We’ll conclude the tour with a stop at Porta San Sebastiano, one of the most majestic gates of the Aurelian Walls, telling the story of ancient Rome and its defenses.

Throughout the tour, your expert guide will accompany you at each stop, revealing stories and curiosities about these hidden spots off the beaten path. The comfort of the golf cart allows you to enjoy the experience in total relaxation, without the need for long walks.
