What To Expect
Just outside the historic center, about 3km from the Colosseum, there is a place you absolutely must visit! Getting there can be a challenge, but you are an explorer!, and the undertaking is absolutely worth it!! Do you want to cycle safely, away from city traffic?
Discover the Via Appia Antica with us starting directly from the section closed to car traffic and unleash your desire for adventure!
This itinerary unites the present of the golden fields of the Roman countryside still frequented by local shepherds, with the glorious past of the Monumental Tombs and ruins of ancient Rome which stand on the sides of the road and are witnesses of an era in which death was celebrated with grandeur.
Every kilometer traveled is a dive into history, which brings you ever closer to the peace and tranquility you will find in the Aqueduct Park. Here the arches of the imposing aqueducts draw elegant profiles in the sky and tell of the cutting-edge engineering feats of the ancient Romans. In the shade of the centenary trees, enjoy the stories told by your guide, the enchanting landscape will do the rest.
The visit to the Catacombs will be an unmissable stop to give a touch of mystery to this bike adventure. In the depths of the earth, among these labyrinths dug into the tuff, let yourself be enveloped by the mystical atmosphere you will breathe.
