Stroll among the towering walls, explore the remains of pools, gyms, and locker rooms, and admire the intricate mosaics and artworks that once adorned this luxurious public bathhouse — a true masterpiece of imperial Rome.
Continue your private Appian Way golf cart tour at Saint Sebastian’s Gate — once known as the Appian Gate — the largest and best-preserved entrance in Rome’s ancient defensive walls. Explore the museum, climb the watchtower’s middle floors, and walk along the historic ramparts that once encircled the Eternal City.
This gate marks the true beginning of the Appian Way (Appia Antica), the “Queen of Roads”, built over 2,300 years ago to link Rome with southern Italy’s ports and trade routes to Greece and the Middle East. Along the way, visit the “Gladiatorial school”, run by the Gruppo Storico Romano, a group who specialises in reenacting show and features of Ancient Rome.
