Overview

The purpose of this experience is to visit the fascinating and mystical Christian catacombs, the burial place of the first Christians, when they were still persecuted. They extend for kilometres underground, dug entirely by hand in the tuff, they host the burial of hundreds of thousands of people. Here we will also find the tombs of the first Popes, not by chance it is called the little St. Peter.
If the destination is important, the journey must be no less!
Thanks to my classic Fiat500s, you will live a 60s-style experience, visiting along the route to get to the catacombs, the surprising Roman countryside, rich in natural and historical beauties, which often escape the tourists who crowd only the centre of Rome!
I am an authentic Roman, I will be able to guide you in the best way to discover these wonderful and special places

This is our starting point, in case you did not choose the hotel pick-up option. The largest stadium of the Roman era, of which only a few remains are visible today.
Terme di Caracalla (Pass by)
Driving along the so-called “archaeological walk”, we will encounter on the right the enormous complex of the Baths of Caracalla.

After passing the Baths of Caracalla, the Via Appia Antica begins, the most famous Roman road.
Sepolcro degli Scipioni (Pass by)
Shortly after the beginning of the Appian Way, we will come across the tomb of the Scipios, perhaps the most ancient and prestigious Roman family.
Arco Di Druso (Pass by)
After passing the tomb of the Scipios, we will pass under the Arch of Drusus, an imposing monument from the Roman era.
Porta San Sebastiano (Pass by)
A few metres after the Arch of Drusus, we find one of the most famous access gates of Rome, part of the imposing Aurelian walls, which here we can admire in one of the most beautiful parts.
Catacombs of Saint Callixtus
  • 45m
  • Admission ticket included
Once we reach the catacombs we will be welcomed by a lush and unexpected nature, olive trees, roads with cypresses and green meadows, it will seem like we are in Tuscany! Here we will have our most important stop, you will be accompanied by an expert guide on a small group tour inside the Catacombs

Important Basilica, which houses a majestic sculpture by Bernini
Mausoleo di Cecilia Metella (Pass by)
