Itinerary

Porta San Sebastiano Stop 1
An imposing southern gateway to the city of Rome. The Porta di San Sebastiano, part of the Aurelian Walls built around 275 AD, also marks the beginning of the historic Via Appia Antica. Be enchanted by its beauty and discover the numerous medieval graffiti that testify to the flow of pilgrims over the centuries.
20 min
Parco Della Caffarella Stop 2
The Caffarella Park, today an integral part of the Appia Antica Regional Park, is one of the largest green areas not only in Rome but also in Europe. It is a treasure rich in history hidden among its paths and groves where you can see the remains of ancient buildings.
20 min
Ninfeo di Egeria Stop 3
Let yourself be enchanted by this sacred place that tells the love story between the Nymph Egeria and the second King of Rome Numa Pompilius, where Egeria, learning of the death of her beloved, burst into tears from grief, giving life to a spring.
20 min
Parco Archeologico dell'Appia Antica Stop 4
Walk through this immense green area crossed in ancient times and still visible today, from the Via Latina, the oldest road in Rome. Crossroads of the water network of Ancient Rome, here you can admire the grandeur of Roman engineering through the remains of some aqueducts in places well preserved, and surprisingly some still in operation.
20 min
Villa dei Quintili e Santa Maria Nova - Parco Archeologico dell'Appia Antica Stop 5
At the fifth mile of the Appian Way you can admire the remains of the majestic Villa dei Quintili belonging to the brothers Sesto Quintilio Condiano and Massimo Valerio, consuls in the second century AD, killed by Commodus I who confiscated the villa making it imperial property.
20 min
Mausoleo di Cecilia Metella e Castrum Caetani - Parco Archeologico dell'Appia Antica Stop 6
This majestic mausoleum is a pagan tomb dedicated to Cecilia Metella, dating back to the 1st century BC. Incorporated into the Castrum Caetani, it remains the best preserved mausoleum on the Via Appia Antica. Here you can also appreciate the remains of the medieval house of the wealthy Caetani family and the church of San Nicola of which only the perimeter walls remain standing.
20 min
Circus of Maxentius Stop 7
Located on the Via Appia Antica, the Circus of Maxentius represents the best example of a Roman circus that has survived to this day. Let yourself be transported into the past surrounded by the remains of ancient Rome. The spina, still visible, housed the Agonale obelisk, moved during the Renaissance to the Fountain of the Four Rivers in Piazza Navona.
20 min
Terme di Caracalla Stop 8
Built by the emperor of the same name, the Baths of Caracalla were for about a century the largest public baths ever built, and today most of their structure is preserved. A branch of the Aqua Marcia brought water to the baths through the Antoninian aqueduct. Small remains can be admired at the Porta di San Sebastiano.
