Catacombs in Rome — FAQ
Which catacombs can you visit in Rome?
The most visited are the Catacombs of San Callisto, San Sebastiano and Domitilla along the Appian Way. Tours usually include one catacomb with a guide, and many add the Capuchin Crypt or the Appian Way.
Do I need a guide for the Roman catacombs?
Yes — the catacombs can only be visited on a guided tour, both to navigate the tunnels safely and to understand their early-Christian history. Most tours include transport from the centre.
Are the catacombs suitable for everyone?
They involve stairs, low ceilings and cool, dim tunnels, so they suit most visitors but may not be ideal for those with limited mobility or claustrophobia.
