Bike, helmet, lights, lock, poncho and the quarry entry are included at €73 per person, refreshments are not. It needs a few bookings to run. In our comparison: #19 of 46 in Catacombs & Underground Rome, by rating weighted by review volume (table below). ## Overview Imagine cycling on the Via Appia Antica, one of the oldest and most historic roads in the world. Feel under the wheels the same stones that supported Roman chariots and pilgrims. The air smells of history, and the landscape transports you back in time. Cycling along the Appian Way is like leafing through a living history book. Every kilometer traveled is a chapter to discover: monumental tombs, majestic aqueducts, ancient villas... Every stone tells a story, and you are the protagonist of this adventure. But the real surprise awaits you underground. In the Roman Quarry of the Caffarella park, a labyrinth of hand-dug tunnels opens up to your eyes. It is a unique experience, a dive into the heart of underground Rome. Here, where pozzolana was extracted for centuries to build the city, you can cycle through the ancient tunnels, touch the walls dug by slaves and imagine the life of those who worked in these dark depths. Whether you are a history enthusiast, a nature lover or simply an explorer, this tour is the perfect combination capable of offering you unique emotions. Leave the usual tourist itineraries and book now to immerse yourself in an authentic and evocative atmosphere. ## Before you book - Meeting point: To reach us by public transport: Near… - Group size varies by option: max 20 from €73 · private from €170 - 8 start times: between 08:30 and 16:30 - Strollers OK: infants accepted - Children from €55: ages 6 to 9 **Pickup:** No hotel pickup: everyone meets at the start point ## Key facts - Price: from €73 per person for the Public tour in English option; other options up to €170 - Duration: 3h 30m - Rating: 4.96/5 from 48 reviews (collected from Guidekin & Viator & Tripadvisor) - Free cancellation (see policy below) - Operator: Bicycle Roma - Group: Group size varies by option: max 20 from €73 · private from €170 - Guide languages: English, Italian, French, Spanish - Start times: 08:30, 09:00, 10:00, 14:00, 14:30, 15:00, 15:30, 16:30 - Booking: Instant confirmation, mobile ticket - Price checked on Viator: 2026-09-26 ## Reviews 4.96 from 48 ratings on Guidekin, Viator & Tripadvisor. 98% of ratings with a star breakdown are 4 or 5 stars: 47 of 48. - 5 stars: 47 (98%) - 4 stars: 0 (0%) - 3 stars: 1 (2%) - 2 stars: 0 (0%) - 1 star: 0 (0%) ## Tour options Prices are the operator's current list price for two travellers (whole euros); options sold only to bigger parties say so; pick the option on the booking page. | Option | Price | Guide languages | Details | |---|---|---|---| | Public tour in English | €73 / person | English | Small Group up to 20 people via Appia Antica: Discover the beautiful Appia Antica including the entrance to an ancient Roman Quarry (Undergrounds) e-Bike | | Public tour in French | €73 / person | French | Small Group up to 20 people via Appia Antica: Discover the beautiful Appia Antica including the entrance to an ancient Roman Quarry (Undergrounds) e-Bike | | Public tour in Italian | €73 / person | Italian | Small Group up to 20 people via Appia Antica: Discover the beautiful Appia Antica including the entrance to an ancient Roman Quarry (Undergrounds) e-Bike | | Public tour in Spanish | €73 / person | Spanish | Small Group up to 20 people via Appia Antica: Discover the beautiful Appia Antica including the entrance to an ancient Roman Quarry (Undergrounds) e-Bike | | Private tour in French | €170 / person (for 2+ people) | French | Private Tour via Appia Antica: Discover the beautiful Appia Antica including the entrance to an ancient Roman Quarry (Undergrounds) e-Bike | | Private tour in Spanish | €170 / person (for 2+ people) | Spanish | Private Tour via Appia Antica e-Bike | | Private tour in Italian | €170 / person (for 2+ people) | Italian | Private Tour via Appia Antica: Discover the beautiful Appia Antica including the entrance to an ancient Roman Quarry (Undergrounds) e-Bike | | Private tour in English | €170 / person (for 2+ people) | English | Private Tour via Appia Antica: Discover the beautiful Appia Antica including the entrance to an ancient Roman Quarry (Undergrounds) e-Bike | ## What's included - Padlock - Rear Baby Seat up to 20kg - Bike Lights - Helmet - Entrance inside the Roman Quarry (Underground) - Use of bicycle - Poncho (in case of rain) ## Not included - Refreshments ## Itinerary 1. **Appian Way (Via Appia Antica)** (pass by, no stop) - Cycle along the ancient Appian Way 2. **Parco Regionale dell'Appia Antica** (1h) - Discover the beautiful ancient Appian Way 3. **Parco Archeologico dell'Appia Antica** (30m) - Admire the immensity of the Roman aqueducts 4. **Parco Di Tor Fiscale - Parco Archeologico dell'Appia Antica** (pass by, no stop) - Reach the Tor Fiscale Park, and cycle under the Claudio Aqueduct 5. **Visit an ancient Roman quarry on your e-Bike** (1h; admission included) 6. **Parco Della Caffarella** (30m) - Caffarella park ## Schedule - Runs: Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri, Sat, Sun - Departures: 08:30, 09:00, 10:00, 14:00, 14:30, 15:00, 15:30, 16:30 - Schedule last checked: 2026-09-26 - These are published departures, not a live seat count; availability is confirmed at checkout. ## Cancellation For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time. ## Meeting point To reach us by public transport: Near the Colosseum or Circo Massimo metro, take bus 118 towards Villa dei Quintili, and get off at the Basilica di San Sebastiano stop.
