Tour Details

Go on an exciting adventure along the timeless Appian Way, beginning from the famed Via Appia Antica, 60. An expert guide will see the Domine Quo Vadis Church, a sacred site for the heavenly encounter of Jesus and Saint Peter — their miraculous footprints are perfectly preserved. Then, travel into the mysterious catacombs, revealing the deep-rooted faith and laws of 2nd-century Romans. The adventure proceeds to the Villa and Circus of Maxentius, the iconic setting of the film Ben-Hur.

The Tomb of Metella, once the dwelling of Rome's richest man, is the next stop. Prepare for a grand climax at the sprawling Quintili’s Villa — a magnificent suburban residence of Rome, tragically infamous for the demise of its owner brothers by Emperor Commodus. It's a unique trip through Rome, meandering along ancient cobblestones dating back to 321 BC. It's one of Europe's largest archeological areas, spanning a whopping 4580 hectares and brimming with 2000 years of history.
