Rome: Walking Tour to the Catacombs of Saint Callixtus｜Italy

The tour starts at the meeting point near the Coliseum, where you will meet the tour leader and other guests. As a small group, you will leave Rome city center along scenic routes with views of unique sites such as the Baths of Caracalla and the Aurelian Walls.

By the walls you will see some of the original basalt stones which were the foundation layer of Via Appia, the road that made ancient Rome great. You can also visit the Museum of the Walls with its panoramic terrace.

After exiting the imperial-times city from Saint Sebastian Gates and a stroll along the walls, we will reach the Catacombs of Saint Callixtus, located on top of a green hill. A guide from the site will take you down into the dungeons to see how burials were made by the early Christians.

From the Catacombs we will then cross the Caffarella Park to reach Metro Colli Albani, where you can take public transport or a taxi to get back to your base in Rome.
