This Roman catacombs tour starts in one of the most singular and spine-tingling sights in Rome, a bone chapel from as early as the 16th century.

Great tour. Learned a lot we did not know anything about the catacombs before our trip. Our guide, Flavia, was great!

John_O

My Girlfriend and I thoroughly enjoyed this 3 hour Tour with our Tour Guide Sylvia. Sylvia spoke excellent English and was extremely knowledgeable about the places she took us to and their history. She was passionate about the topics of which she spoke, which made our Tour fantastic. There were about 20 people total in our Tour Group. Sylvia first took us on a 30 minute walking Tour of a neighborhood in Rome that was around during the Black Plague. Then we all got on a small, air-conditioned bus and went to see the Catacombes under San Sebastián Church, which has the tomb of Saint Sebastian. The Tour ended with us visiting the Chapuchin Friar Crypts, which was both macabre and beautiful to see. This was a very fascinating and educational Tour thanks to our terrific Tour Guide Sylvia.

Seeing and learning about the early Christian burial routine was very interesting. It is amazing that the frescoes and other features have been so well preserved. Our guide was very knowledgeable and helped put everything in context.
