Service Description

This tour is perfect for People who don't want to lose half a day on just one site, or just don't have the stamina for a drawn out walking tour. This is a condensed version of my 5 Star "Catacombs: Coolest Underground Tour" Literally the coolest tour in Rome! We go underground where it is 16°C (60°F for us Yankees) a great way to beat the heat when you want to avoid the cattle drive at the Vatican or burning alive in the Forum and Colosseum. With over 300 km of underground tunnels surrounding Rome, even if you go out there alone, they will not let you go down by yourself, only with a guide to assure you don't get lost and become a permanent resident. I will take you off the beaten path and bring ancient Roman society to life, telling the Stories behind the art and architecture. We will walk down further to the Best Preserved Catacombs of Rome, which spread over 17 kilometers of underground caves laid out on four levels. I will introduce you to the early Christian community of Imperial Rome, and of Catholicism in the city between the 2nd and 9th centuries. Ending near the Appia Antica where you are free to continue your Adventures. Other things to note Some stairs involved, no wheelchair access, comfortable shoes are recommended, temperature of the site is 16° C (60.8° F). Tickets included.
