Just wrapped up a stop with teenage boys in Rome and did a fantastic Crypts and Catacombs tour with Federica. She was knowledgable and passionate about the subject and the city of Rome sharing both history of the city and stories of her childhood . Highly recommend her, without context this tour would have been much less impactful and interesting. This is the first review I've written since my return, the tour was just fantastic.

Davide was a wonderful guide to this creepy but interesting tour of the Capuchin crypts and the catacombs. The Capuchin Crypt museum is small, but very informative and Davide really brought it to life. The crypt itself is very very strange and ghoulish with all the bones on display.
The highlight of the tour, though, was the exceptional commentary from Davide as we travelled between locations. He gave us so much historical information about places such as the Appian Way, the Roman Walls, and then even gave us restaurant and food suggestions (such a shame it was our last day as they all sounded amazing!).

The tour was wonderful and we really enjoyed it. Our guide was also wonderful. Our only problem was finding the meeting point. It was not easily seen and the drop off was ridiculous. It was very far from the start point. We had arranged transportation according to the address given. It should be known that you will not be anywhere close to the start at the end so proper arrangements can be made. It caused us to be late getting to our transportation.
Easy Tour Guide

No guide at the Capuchin museum, just an audio guide.
"Max 19 people" but we were doubled up for the catacombs tour in a group of 38. Unacceptable.
No visit to the Appian Way, which was promised in the tour description.

Not only was this tour a great way to beat the heat, but it was incredibly interesting. My 12 year old was absolutely fascinated and could have spent more time in the crypts. Our guide was fabulous and shared a ton of information about the crypts, the catacombs, and Rome in general. I highly recommend this tour.

Our tour guide Federico was amazing. She is a Roman from Rome. Her knowledge of the town, its history was second to none. The Cript of the Cappuccini was astounding. It will blow you away! Ciao tutti

We loved our tour of the catacombs and crypts! So very cool and our tour guide was AWESOME!! Both our bus driver and guide were so nice and accommodating. Our guide was an amazing history buff and told us so many amazing facts not only about the catacombs and crypts, but he also told us A LOT of history about Rome. He made the tour way more enjoyable and interesting. I highly recommend the this tour!

Both guides were brilliant. Helpful and informative. Catacombs were brilliant and a nice peaceful contrast to the madness above ground! Really interesting. However personally I thought the crypt tour a waste of time with so many other places you could visit. But others in my group thought it was interesting if a little weird!

We felt that we were rushed thru the crypt portion. Would have loved more time to hear the entire audio tour. Not the fault of the tour guide. They were just maintaining their schedule
