Maria Maggiore Church |
Next,
you'll proceed along the ancient Appian Way, passing the Chapel of
Domine Quo Vadis before arriving at the Catacombs, the ancient underground
cemeteries and hiding places of the Christians. A visit will be made
to either the Catacombs of San Callisto, Santa Domitilla or San Sebastiano,
depending on seasonal conditions. The tour ends with a spectacular
view of the Baths of Emperor Caracalla.
Tour departs from centrally located Rome hotels. If you're staying
outside the Aurelian Walls or did not confirm hotel pickup - all tours
will depart from 5/a Via Farini, located off Via Cavour, Rome. This
departure point is a few minutes walking distance from Termini Railway
Station and easy to locate.
Tour concludes at 5/a Via Farini (centrally located and close to Termini
Railway Station). In some cases, it is possible to be dropped off
nearby your hotel but this cannot be guaranteed until the day of the
tour as it depends on Rome traffic conditions and the location of
your hotel.
Please note, entrance to Basilicas and Catacombs requires appropriate
attire. No shorts, miniskirts or uncovered shoulders.
It is also advisable to wear comfortable shoes. |
