Underground Rome Catacombs Tour with Aqueducts and Appian Way
Follow in the footsteps of ancient Romans along the Appian Way, stand beneath towering aqueducts, and explore the Catacombs of San Sebastiano at closing time without the crowds.
Step into the past as you walk the historic Appian Way, marvel at ancient aqueducts, and descend into the Catacombs of San Sebastiano as the last visitors of the day for a crowd-free experience. Travel in comfort with air-conditioned transport and enjoy expert insights from your guide as they offer an unforgettable look at Rome’s hidden history.
Travel back in time as you explore the historic Appian Way, one of the earliest roads built by the Romans. With centuries-old paving stones beneath your feet, follow the path once used by legions, merchants, and travelers. Along the way, discover ancient tombs and ruins that tell the story of Rome’s expansion.
Pause to admire the Mausoleum of Cecilia Metella, an imposing circular tomb dating back to the 1st century BCE. Learn about the powerful family that built this monument and how it has endured through time. Then, stand in awe beneath the remains of Rome’s iconic aqueducts. These towering structures once supplied fresh water to the ancient city, demonstrating the engineering prowess of the Roman Empire.
Next, it's off to the city's most interesting catacombs. The catacomb contains miles of creepy tunnels and the world’s oldest collection of bones. Your expert, guide, hand-picked for knowledge of the catacombs, will lead your group of 18 people or fewer through these wonderfully historic and atmospheric tunnels, while telling you the story of early Christianity.
