Discover the imperial and early Christian Rome by digging back layers and millenniums of history as you descend into the Eternal City’s underground burial chambers! This tour takes you to the crypts and catacombs of Rome from different historical eras in diverse locations, the Domitilla Catacombs, and the Basilica of San Martino ai Monti along with an exclusive viewing at the Capuchin Crypt and skip-the-line access.
Beginning in the centre of Piazza Barberini by the Triton fountain in the city of Rome, you will be picked up in an air-conditioned coach from here. Our first stop for the day is the Domitilla Catacombs, the Eternal city’s underground burial chambers where long winding passages unfold millennia of history, taking you to a time when Christianity was considered a simple cult whose members were executed as pagans and buried as martyrs. You will see paintings on the walls of Nereo y Aquileo before continuing on to the Basilica of San Martino ai Monti where stunning frescoes adorn the walls, from artists such as Pietro Testa, Matteo Riccione and Giannangiolo Canini.
Your journey through the centuries ends with a bang at perhaps the most memorable site we visit on any of our tours – the Capuchin Crypt. Here the remains of 4,000 Capuchin monks literally rest in pieces - just skip the queue and enjoy an exclusive viewing of the Crypt.
Tours inside Capuchin Crypts we will run with Audioguides instead of a guided tour as per new rules imposed by the Capuchin Crypts.
