Groepsreis: christelijke catacomben
Beschrijving
Reis langs de Oude Appische Weg, een van de meest legendarische wegen van Rome, voordat je de Catacomben van San Callistus bezoekt voor een onvergetelijke spirituele ervaring. Loop hetzelfde pad dat ooit werd gebruikt door soldaten, pelgrims en vroege christenen, omringd door ruïnes en een vredig platteland. Daal vervolgens ondergronds af met een gespecialiseerde Gids om het enorme netwerk van tunnels te verkennen die in de aarde zijn uitgehouwen. Ontdek grafkamers, symbolen van geloof en verhalen van moed die onthullen hoe de eerste christenen leefden, aanbaden en hun doden eerden. De catacomben strekken zich kilometers onder Rome uit en bieden een zeldzame en authentieke ontmoeting met de christelijke geschiedenis. Deze tour geeft je een dieper perspectief op Rome — een die je niet zult ervaren in het drukke stadscentrum.

Very informative. Lift to and from hotel provided and driver waited while we went on the tour
Dear customer, Thank You for sharing Your experience! We’re delighted you enjoyed our Christian Catacombs Group Tour and found it both interesting and informative. Providing comfortable transportation and a seamless experience from your hotel to the catacombs is something we always strive for. We appreciate Your kind words and hope to welcome You again for more unforgettable underground Rome and Christian heritage tours during your next visit to Rome! Rosa
Viator does an amazing job on the packages they put together, I’ve used 4 so far before this one and they have each been amazing. The catacombs of San Callisto is probably my actual fruatration, I think and not the services provided. A driver picked us up at our hotel and shuttled us to the catacombs, and waited for us to return. The vehicle he picked us up in was beautifully maintained and he was very kind. I am a Christian history buff and other folks may have a different desire from this tour. My experience was that the tour left me wanting. I think the entire thing was 25 minutes from beginning to end, and my history itch was barely scratched. Our tour guide seemed knowledgeable enough, but I could hear the groups coming up behind ours, and the groups ahead of us, and so I’m sure the tour was a highly time managed activity. That said, 25 or so minutes to speak about something so reverent and such a part of Christian history didn’t do it for me. I wouldn’t recommend this tour, though Viator’s service was (as always in my experience) impeccable.
Dear customer Thank you sincerely for taking the time to share your experience, We're delighted to hear that you've enjoyed our services across multiple tours, and we're especially glad your transfer to the Catacombs of San Callisto was comfortable and that your driver provided such kind, professional service. We truly appreciate your honest feedback regarding the tour itself. As someone with a deep appreciation for Christian history, your desire for a more in-depth experience is completely understandable. It’s important to note that the Catacombs are managed directly by the Vatican, and all tour guides who lead visitors through the site are selected and trained under Vatican oversight. The structure, timing, and content of the tours are therefore standardized andthe site and we as accreditated agency cant change that. That said, we completely understand how the short duration and fast pace may not have met your expectations, especially given your strong interest in the subject matter. Your feedback is both valuable and respectful, and we will certainly share it with our partners to help improve how we present this experience to future guests. We hope to welcome You on another journey in Rome soon Warm regards,
We took part in the tour of the Catacombs of San Callisto with Rome Tour, and it was a fascinating and well organized experience. The manager Marco, handled everything impeccably, ensuring a punctual and professional service. Our guide, Stefano, was outstanding:knowledgeable, engaging, and passionate about sharing the history of these ancient Christian catacombs. The tour led us through the eerie underground tunnels, showing us the tombs of martyrs, ancient Christian symbols, and telling us intriguing stories about the lives of early persecuted Christians. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to explore a less touristy b and spiritual side of Rome. A big thank you to Stefano for his excellent guidance and to Marco for the great assistance.
Dear Jelena, Thank you for your review! It was a pleasure having you on our tour. We hope to welcome you back to Rome again soon! Best regards, Marko
The description of this tour is very misleading. The actual tour was outstanding and very informative, but you are simply paying for transportation. The entry fee (EUR10 per person) was covered, but that's the extent of the "Rome Tour Srls' involvement. The operator is not the "guided tour provider" as the description of "what's included" implies. The driver was nice and picked us up at our hotel and dropped us off at our next tour, but honestly, we could have taken a taxis and saved $230!! Take my advice, don't book this through the provider; arrange transportation and purchase your tickets at the entry point of the tour.
Dear Sir, thank You for Your revew.We are really sorry to hear that You didn't understand our description, but Catacombs are holy place and there is no option to use external tourguides,and Rome tour is accredited tour operator by St.Callisto catacombs for several Years. Everyone is free to organize ther trip as they want. Hope to see You on Rome again!
