On this half-day tour of the catacombs outside Rome you will visit the Catacombs of San Callisto and learn why burial in this way became a necessity. You will walk a part of the Via Appia Antica, the so-called ‘Appian Way’, one of Ancient Rome’s oldest and most important roads’ used for military expeditions and along which thousands of slaves were crucified during Spartacus’ revolt. You will also see the Circus of Maxentius and one of Rome’s aqueducts, vital for providing enough water for the capital of an empire, learning about its complicated structure and construction.

  • Via Appia Antica, Rome, Italy
    The Appian Way (completed in 312 B.C) was one of the earliest and longest roads of Ancient Rome. It was also the most significant- both symbolically and strategically. Symbolically in that all roads really did lead to Rome (like that famous saying) most likely and maybe even literally at this point. And strategically because, the Appian Way was the main route for all supplies and the military, connecting Rome to Brindisi in southeast Italy.
  • Acquedotto Claudio, Rome, Italy
    Admire the magnificent Claudian Aqueduct, regarded as one of the 4 greatest aqueducts of Rome. Erected in 52 AD, this aqueduct spanned over 40 miles long, most of which was underground. By the 3rd century AD, Rome had a total of 11 aqueducts since original construction began. Yet what remains is a breathtaking vision of one of the most incredible engineering feats of its time. The ancient aqueducts are still impressive by today’s standards.This sightseeing tour is the perfect option to see some of the best, secret sites in Rome.

Meeting was as described, a regular place for many tours. Our Guide Giuseppe was very knowledgeable and happy to take questions. The trip to the via appia and aquaducts was a nice break from the norm. I cannot remember the name of the guide in the catacombs but he was enthusiastic and knowledgeable about the subject. We did this tour 5 years ago and wanted to take our kids (in their 20's)/partners on it this time as it was just amazing. A great tour close to Rome , a three in one that still gives you the rest of the day.
