Description

Step into the sacred grounds of Rome's official cemetery, dating back to the 3rd century AD. This hallowed site, overseen by the deacon St. Callixtus under Pope Zephyrinus, served as the final resting place for countless Christians, including martyrs and 16 esteemed popes.

Led by a knowledgeable catacombs expert, wander through winding tunnels and chambers adorned with ancient frescoes and inscriptions, bearing testament to the enduring faith of bygone eras.

Join a select group of fellow travelers for an immersive journey filled with camaraderie and shared discovery. Engage with your guide and companions as you unravel the mysteries of Rome's Christian legacy.

Relax in luxurious comfort aboard an upscale vehicle, chauffeured by an English-speaking driver who will provide insightful commentary along the scenic route to your destination.
