Great tour. Good guide, excellent sites. Do not miss going to the catacombs while you are in Rome.

Reasonable price, great sights, friendly and knowledgeable staff - what's not to like? Trying to do this trip on your own would be difficult, so leave it to people who know how to do it!

We thoroughly enjoyed this tour. Not only did we have an interesting tour through the Catacombs of St. Callixtus, a stop on the Appian Way, and a visit to Aqueduct Park, but we also had a stop at Cecelia's Tomb. Our guide was knowledgeable and pointed out many sites as we drove to and from our stops. This is billed as a walking tour, but there was more driving than walking which was good since we had just spend two days on our feet. We saw a lot of things that would have been difficult to see in the same amount of time using public transportation and even if we could have gotten there, having a guide was a real asset. The tour was even better and more worthwhile than we anticipated. I would highly recommend it.

My wife and daughter joined me for a great half day tour of the catacombs and the Roman countryside. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and helpful and the tour bus was very comfortable. No issues to report, just a great time for all.

Excellent--you see the actual road the Romans marched down into Rome. Our tour guide was excellent; she was full of knowledge and made the tour ten times better. The aqueducts and the catacombs were quite impressive too.

Well worth going on. The guide was super and was a mine of information. This trip added that little bit extra to give value for money in my opinion. The main trip was to the Catacombs at San Callisto, but the Appian Way was a lovely inclusion, as was the trip to the viaduct, which was fantastic to see. You will not be disappointed. The tour operator's staff were lovely to deal with, and everything was timed perfectly.

After spending the first two days in Rome, it was nice to be able to get out into the hills and look back down, as we did while on the Appian Way and while seeing the aqueducts--they were simply amazing! Catacombs were also! Our guide was THE BEST, as her degree was in architectural history. We also liked the fact that we could book this from home and go on our trip, knowing that we already had a game plan in place. Delightful morning that we will long remember! People at the office where we met our group were also very helpful; those things mean a lot! We live in Charleston, SC, so we know how important it is to do tourism right!

This was great trip. At the Catacombs they provide you with a guide on site, this is great as they are very knowledgeable in the area. The girl who was our tour guide was ok but did present well in knowing information about the Aqueducts. Overall this was a great morning.
