This journey takes you back to the 3rd century AD, exploring Rome's intriguing history, away from the city's chaos and traffic. Our driver will transport you safely to one of Rome's most hidden and curious destinations: the first Christian catacombs, a place of burial and worship for early Christians. An official guide will introduce you to the history of this ancient site during a 40-minute visit. You'll be amazed and fascinated by the mysteries of these extensive labyrinths of tombs, sepulchers, and sacred places, uncovering a lesser-known side of Rome's history. The golf cart shuttle departs from our office near the Colosseum, heading towards the Via Appia Antica, the queen of ancient Roman roads, within one of the world's most beautiful and extensive archaeological parks. ## Key facts - Price: from €65 per person - Duration: 2h - Rating: 4.98/5 from 40 reviews (collected from Guidekin & Viator & Tripadvisor) - Free cancellation (see policy below) - Operator: Velarium Experiences ## 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 | |---|---|---|---| | Late Morning CatacombsTour | €65 / person | Spanish, English | Late Morning Catacombs Tour: Join a later catacombs morning tour, in English or Spanish languages, on the board of a comfortable golf cart stuttle. | | Rome: Official Catacombs Guided Tour with Golf Cart Shuttle | €65 / person | Spanish, French, German, English | Early Morning Catacombs Tour: Join an early morning catacombs tour, in English, Spanish, German languages, on the board of an elegant golf shuttle. | ## What's included - All Fees and Taxes - Skip the line ticket for St. Callixtus Catacombs (except on Wednesdays) - Driver English-speaking - Guided tour of St. Callixtus Catacombs ( English, French, Spanish, and German) - Golf Cart Transfer from/to our office (Via Marco Aurelio, 19) ## Not included - Guided tour during the transfer not included (the driver does not provide historical explanation) - Drink and food - Hotel pick up and drop off - Tips ## Itinerary 1. **Colosseum** (20m) - Admire from outside the impressive amphiteatre, the stage of the gladiatorial fights in the ancient Roman times. 2. **Circo Massimo** (25m) - Passing along our way, we will see from far on our right side the valley of Circus Maximus, once the stadium of the chariot races and the heart of social life of ancient Rome! 3. **Terme di Caracalla** (25m) - Heading to Appian Way we will admire from the board of our cart the Baths of Caracalla were likely built between AD 212 (or 211) and 216/217, during the reigns of emperors Septimius Severus and Caracalla. 4. **Catacombe di San Callisto** (40m; admission included) - Join an outstanding guided tour of the very first and most important Roman's Catacombs along the quiet Appian Way, outside the noisy center of Rome, on the comfortable board of an elegant golf cart. 5. **Appian Way (Via Appia Antica)** (pass by, no stop) - Called the Queen of the Roman Ancient Roads, builT in 312 B.C, Unesco Heritage from 2024. ## Schedule - Runs: Mon, Tue, Thu, Fri, Sat, Sun - Departures: 09:00, 11:30 - Schedule last checked: 2026-09-12 - 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 Our office is located 10 minutes walk from the Colosseum metro station.
