Rome Underground and Appian Way - private tour
Experience the ancient “freeway” that was the Appian Way, the starting point for Roman traders and warriors journeying to the far eastern reaches of the Empire. Dating from 312 BCE, it was flanked by mausoleums, such as Cecilia Metella tomb, and villas, like Villa dei Quintilii, many of them built by Rome's most wealthy and famous families. More than anything it is the unmissable Christian Catacombs, the burial grounds of the earliest Christians who were laid to rest after death deep below the earth in maze-like underground galleries. Today, when you visit these tombs, you witness a remarkable insight into the formative early Christian community and, with the help of your guide, get a sense of how Chirstianity was born and how it developed towards what it is today.

Half-Day Private Tour to Appia and San Callisto Catacombs
The Appian Way is one of the seven original roads leading into Rome. It connected the capital to Brindisi in southern Italy and served as a strategic trade route with Greece and the East. The road is punctuated by important archaeological treasures, such as the Caracalla Baths, the second largest public baths of ancient Rome, and Villa Quintili, an ancient Roman mansion featuring beautiful marbles and sculptures. But the Appian Way has also a dark side, since it was here that the early Christians buried their dead bodies. During the tour you will descend into the Catacombs of San Callisto, Rome’s largest underground cemetery named after Pope Calixtus I. These date back to the 2nd century and became the official burial site of the Roman Church, housing the tombs of thousands of Christians, martyrs and popes, which earned them the nickname of “Little Vatican”.
