Itinerary
This incredible tour begins at the the Crypt of the Capuchin monks on Via Veneto, where you will meet your professional expert guide and join your exclusively SMALL group of 6 people max! This historical crypt holds the bones of over 4,000 deceased Capuchin monks, which have been decoratively laid out creating an eerie atmosphere which will surely leave you impressed! As your tour of the Capuchin Crypt ends and night begins to fall, your guide will escort you to a private chauffeured car where you will be taken to ancient catacombs, for the next part of your Rome Catacombs Night Tour.
Duration: 45 minutes
Admission Ticket Included
Your chauffeur will drop you off at the incredible Basilica of Saint Agnes outside the walls, built in honour and protection of the remains of Saint Agnes, a very young Christian martyr executed under the reign of Diocletian. Here you will have the chance to visit the beautiful interior of the Basilica and descend into the impressive catacombs, through exclusive access granted ONLY to our company's groups. A Saint Agnes affiliated and certified guide will here take you and other groups from our company only in the underground hallways lined by hundreds of tombs.
Duration: 1 hour
Admission Ticket Included
Once above ground again, continue your visit with your exclusively small group of only 6 people. Next stop will be just behind the Basilica di Saint Agnes, in the Mausoleo di Costanza. In fact, the basilica is part of a larger, prominent palaeo-Christian funerary complex which is also home to a mausoleum dedicated to Costanza, Emperor Constantine’s daughter. Both his daughters, Costanza and Helena’s remains are buried here, and they have been venerated with priceless 4th century mosaics, some of which depict early versions of Jesus – with long hair and a halo – as he is often still depicted today.
The access to these incredible catacombs and funerary complex is privileged and exclusively granted to our company and our company's groups. An off the beaten path, beautiful and inspiring adventure you are sure to never forget!
Once the tour has ended, you will hop back on your comfortable chauffeur ride, and be taken back to the city centre.
