Overview

Ride along one of Rome's most impressive ancient roads with a bicycle tour on the Appian Way. Built in the 5th century BC and running for 330 miles (530 km) across southern Italy, this route takes you through historic ruins of Roman civilization, including temples, catacombs, and even an aqueduct.

Meet your guide at Largo di Torre Argentina, an ancient square surrounded by temples that date back to the Roman Republic, and set off to discover the ingenuity of the ancient engineering around the city. The Appian Way leads you out past ruined monuments, 2 Christian catacombs, and the church that marks the site where Saint Peter had a vision of Christ.
