What to expect

Catacombs Of St. Sebastian
1h · Admission ticket included

Step into the hidden world beneath Rome with a visit to the Catacombs of San Domitilla, one of the oldest and most extensive underground burial sites. Setting off from our Show Me Italy office at Via dei Serpenti 114, you'll follow your guide through part of a vast 180-mile network of tunnels, where early Christians found refuge and laid their loved ones to rest. Your expert guide brings to life the stories of religious persecution, burial rituals, and the rise of Christianity in Rome. Along the way, take in ancient tombs, early Christian artwork, and beautifully preserved frescoes that offer a glimpse into the past.
Vicus Caprarius – the City of Water

It's self-guided, and we'll provide the entry tickets — a small add-on that leaves a big impression.
