Experience the very best of the ancient catacombs and crypts in Rome. A private guide and vehicle is the best tour to see many of Rome’s hidden underground gems such as the Basilica di San Clemente, whose structure dates all the way back to ancient Rome. The church is a perfect example of the layers of the city with the 11th century church sitting on top of a 4th century AD basilica, on top of the home of a Roman nobleman, destroyed in 64AD in the great fire of Rome.
You will also explore the crypt of the Capuchin Friars in the center of Rome. Here you will see how the friars decorated their crypts with the bones of over 3000 deceased friars. From the crypt to the catacombs, your driver takes you to the Catacombs of San Callisto, a maze of underground burial tunnels dating back to the early 3rd century AD.
- Discover the darker side of Rome when you go under the city to ancient levels
- Stand in awe of the crypts decorated with thousands of monks' bones.
- Walk through the miles of tunnels in the Catacombs on the edge of the city
