Descend the official cemetery of early popes with a local guide in your chosen language.
Everything you get: Make your way to the Catacombs of St. Callixtus, just off the Appian Way, and join your guide for a 40-minute tour through ancient burial chambers and fresco-lined corridors. Your skip-the-line ticket includes access to the “Popes’ Crypt” and other key chapels. Tours run in five languages and are kept small for clarity and ease.
Why choose this: This is the most straightforward way to explore Rome’s largest and most historically significant catacombs—perfect if you’ve planned a day around the Appian Way or prefer to arrive on your own.
Upgrades: You can add round-trip transfers from central Rome if you'd rather not navigate public transport.
