Overview

Guidekin summary

The Appian Way and the aqueduct park by e-bike in a small group, with the catacombs visited on the way and lunch or an aperitivo included on the tier that says so. Bike, helmet and guide are included at €75 per person, tips are not, and the catacombs and food only come with the right option. On Wednesdays the visit moves to the Saint Sebastian catacombs.

From the guide

Pedal on The Appian Way the queen of the long roads, with a full suspension E-mountain bike or a conformable E-bike in a small group.

Today the Appian Way is a magnificent Natural Park, rich of monuments and treasures, an oasis of tranquility and relaxation, discover it!

We will start with a stop to visit the mysterious Catacombs and we will follow the Appian Way passing by ruins as the Villa of Maxentius and the Mausoleum of Cecilia Metella.

Then we will discover the Park of the Aqueducts and its wonderful remnants…A spectacular atmosphere in one of the most beautiful park in Rome!!!

Next stop to taste typical roman dishes and relax in nature in the heart of the Eternal City before departing for one last immersion in nature.
