Complete guide on how to get to the Catacombs in Rome

Address: Via Appia Antica, 110

They sit along the historic Appian Way, just southeast of the ancient city center of Rome.

• By bus: Take bus 118 to the Catacombe di San Callisto stop; 218 also serves the area.
  
• From Metro A: At San Giovanni, take bus 218 to Fosse Ardeatine. Alternatively, from Arco di Travertino, take bus 660 towards Appia Pignatelli/Appia Antica.
  
• From Metro B: From Colosseo or Circo Massimo, walk to Terme Caracalla/Porta Capena and take bus 118.
  
• By bus 714: Get off at Navigatori and walk about 1 km along Via delle Sette Chiese; this is less convenient.
  
• By taxi/rideshare: Set your destination as Via Appia Antica 110 or “Catacombe di San Callisto.”
  
• By car: A small parking lot is available near the catacombs, accessed from the Via Appia Antica–Via Ardeatina junction near the Quo Vadis church.
  
• Important: Private vehicles are restricted on the Appian Way on Sundays and public holidays, except for authorised/reserved groups. Keep your booking confirmation with you when driving.

Address: Via delle Sette Chiese, 282

They are situated in the Ardeatino neighborhood, just south of Rome's ancient city center and very close to the Catacombs of Callixtus.

• Bus from Termini: Take bus 714 to Piazza dei Navigatori. Cross Via Cristoforo Colombo at the traffic lights, then walk about 10 minutes along Via delle Sette Chiese to No. 282.
  
• Bus from central Rome: Take bus 160 from Piazza San Silvestro, 30 or 130F from Largo di Torre Argentina, or 670 from Basilica of Saint Paul Outside the Walls to Piazza dei Navigatori. Each requires a 10-minute walk to the catacombs.
  
• By taxi: Use Via delle Sette Chiese 282 as the destination. This is more straightforward than asking for “the Roman catacombs,” since several sites are spread across Rome.
  
• Parking: Small on-site parking is available, with easy access via Via Cristoforo Colombo. Spaces may be limited, so street parking nearby can be an alternative, subject to local restrictions.

Address: Via Appia Antica, 136

They sit along the historic Appian Way, just outside the ancient Aurelian Walls of Rome, and directly beneath the Basilica of St. Sebastian.

• By bus: Take bus 118 from Colosseo or Circo Massimo, bus 218 from San Giovanni, or bus 660 from Arco di Travertino.
  
• By metro: No metro station at the site. From Metro A, change at Arco di Travertino for bus 660 or at San Giovanni for bus 218. From Metro B, travel to Colosseo or Circo Massimo and continue by bus 118.
  
• Taxi or rideshare: Enter “Basilica di San Sebastiano” or Via Appia Antica 136 as the destination. Ask to be dropped near the basilica complex rather than assuming the vehicle can stop directly at the catacomb entrance.
  
• Parking: Parking near the basilica is limited, with some spaces reported in the area opposite the church. There is no confirmed reserved visitor car park, so do not depend on finding a space before a timed tour.

Address: Via Salaria 430.

These are situated in the Trieste neighborhood, just northeast of Rome's historic city center.

• By bus: Take bus 63, 92 or 310.Check the live stop direction before boarding because the routes approach Via Salaria from different sides.
  
• By metro: Take Metro B1 to Libia or Sant’Agnese/Annibaliano, then walk approximately 15 minutes via Via Lago di Lesina to Via Salaria 430. The catacombs are on the opposite side of the road from Villa Ada.
  
• By taxi: Enter Via Salaria 430 or “Catacombe di Priscilla.”
  
• Parking: No onsite parking is available. Parking is limited to small street spaces along Via Salaria right outside the entrance.

Address: Via Nomentana 349.

They are situated in the northeastern sector of Rome, specifically inside the monumental complex of Sant'Agnese fuori le Mura..

• By metro: Take Metro B1 to Sant’Agnese/Annibaliano. The station is around a 5-minute walk from the Sant’Agnese complex.
  
• By bus: Several buses stop close to the complex, including 60, 66, 82, 90 and 310. The Nomentana/Sant’Agnese stop is around a 2-minute walk from the complex.
  
• Taxi or rideshare: Use Via Nomentana 349 or the Sant’Agnese complex as the destination. Confirm whether the driver is taking you to the catacomb ticket office or the basilica entrance.
  
• Parking: Limited street parking is available around Via Nomentana, near the Basilica of St. Agnes Outside the Walls (Via Nomentana, 349). Spaces can be difficult to find during busy daytime hours, so allow extra time for parking.
