Visit the Catacombs in the outskirts of Rome and discover one of the oldest burial tunnels in the world. Explore the eerily quiet tunnels brimming with Roman history including some of the best-preserved early Christian frescoes and sculptures—including the oldest known depiction of the Virgin Mary and, in the bone-adorned Capuchin Crypt, a Caravaggio.
You will be picked up by an air-conditioned VIP minibus from the most centrally located square, next to the Town Hall. On this tour, you will explore some of the most mysterious and outlandish sites the Eternal City has to offer.
Located just outside the city and hidden deep underground, the catacombs were created in the second century due to a shortage of burial ground. Dating back to the 2nd century AD, this extensive network of underground tunnels was once both a burial ground and a place of worship for the first Christians in Rome.
The cool catacombs offer a respite from Italy’s summer heat. Discover 17 km of tunnels and corridors divided into 4 different levels, for a total of 150,000 burials, and a semi subterranean Basilica.
