Dating back as far as the first century, the Rome Catacombs are sometimes thought of as a place where Christians were forced to take refuge and hide their burials from the Roman Empire, but the truth is a little more peaceful. That’s not to say that Christian life in Rome was always easy—just ask Saint Sebastain or one of the many other martyrs buried among these catacombs, along with popes from centuries past. Stretching out over more than 12 miles underground and home to hundreds of thousands of bodies, catacomb sites such as St. Callixtus, Priscilla, and Domitilla provide a remarkable peek into Italian history and early Christian art. Our tours make getting to the catacombs and the Appian Way a breeze, and our knowledgeable guides help bring these tombs of the dead to life!
