Guidekin's take

Two undergrounds in contrast: the hidden cult site deep beneath St Clement's Basilica in the centre, then the twisting tunnels of the Catacombs of Domitilla outside the walls, in a group capped at ten with transport between them.

Entries, transport, guide and headsets are included at €119 per person, hotel pickup and tips are not. Not for claustrophobia.

In our comparison: #29 of 46 in Catacombs & Underground Rome, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).

Itinerary

About this tour, from the operator

Explore a surprising lesser-known gem in the city center before jumping outside the city walls to the mazy Roman Catacombs. Go deep underground in a dark world of secret cults and ancient wall paintings with a small-group guided tour.

Visit 2 contrasting underground sights with an expert guide. Discover the place of a hidden cult 14 meters below St. Clement’s Basilica and descend into the twisty tunnels of the Catacombs of Domitilla.
