The dark side of Rome: St Sebastiano and Callisto Catacombs

Descrizione

Unveil a hidden side of Rome, away from the bustling tourist routes, as you explore the ancient Christian catacombs along the legendary Appian Way. The Catacombs of St. Callixtus, stretching over 12 miles (20 km), form the oldest and best-preserved underground burial network in Rome. Established between 198 and 217 AD, they became the first collective Christian cemetery in the city. Next, you will visit the Catacombs of St. Sebastian. Built above a pagan sanctuary, it was later dedicated to Saints Peter and Paul before taking the name of St. Sebastian in the 4th century. As you resurface, take in the peaceful beauty of the Appian Way, surrounded by lush greenery and timeless ruins. Before heading back to Civitavecchia, breathe in the unique atmosphere of this ancient Roman road, where history quite literally lies beneath your feet. This is more than just a tour—it’s a journey through time, exploring the secrets of Rome’s underground past.
