Reviews for Rome: Domitilla Catacombs & St. Clemente Underground Private Tour
Private Roman Tour
Kandy_M
Fantastic tour. Highly recommend for anyone with mobility issues, wants to avoid the crowds and enjoys spending time with the locals and having the ability to ask questions and learn about Roma’s amazing history. Both the driver and tour guide were extremely polite and helpful. My seventy-five year old mother enjoyed being able to go at her own pace and not feel rushed climbing stairs and navigating through the crowds. Agency was highly responsive and tour was easy to book on short notice. One of our best tours in Roma.

The ancient crypts at Saint Sabastian were quite impressive. We were delighted by our private tour. So worthwhile!

This tour was amazing. Katie was an excellent tour guide and was extremely knowledgeable about the history of Rome. She was so engaging that my 11 year old boy said it was his favorite activity in Italy.
