Peel back the layers of Roman history—quite literally—with a thrilling exploration of its underground tombs and chapels. See thousands of artistically displayed bones in the crypt of Santa Maria dell’ Orazione e Morte during an exclusive visit just for your small group. Although it might appear macabre, your expert guide will tell you why the early Christians in Rome actually consider the display life-affirming. Next up is the Roman Catacombs, home to stunning frescoes and thousands of centuries-old bones. Learn about early Christianity from your guide while meandering the endless darkened tunnels. An expert guide, private transportation via minibus, and a small group of 18 people or fewer means your only responsibility is to immerse yourself in the thrills and wonder of Rome.
