Overview
Explore the deep and rich history of imperial and early Christian Rome by going underground to visit the city's burial chambers, catacombs, and crypts. Discover the time when Christianity was considered a cult and its followers were executed as pagans and buried as martyrs. This is the only tour that takes you to different historical sites with varying styles, such as The Cappuccini Crypt (a chapel decorated entirely by human bones), Domitilla Catacombs (an ancient Christian burial ground), and the Church of San Clemente (built over an ancient fourth-century church, which was built over an even older Roman house containing Christian artifacts and a pagan temple - with ruins reaching 57 feet deep).
Please note that some churches and religious places may require a dress code. IGS cannot be held responsible for entry being denied due to improper dress.
Important: The entrance fees to the Catacombs and the Capuchin Crypt are included in the tour price. The tour is available for free sale up to 72 hours before departure. After that, please contact us for availability.

This company really knows their stuff and recommended our family to stay longer in each location. We didn't listen to them, but wished we had in every single place we went. They recommended Sestri Levante over the Cinque Terre which was our favourite destination on our entire trip.
