Roman Catacombs and Capuchin Crypt Skip-the-Line Guided Tour

Rome 3 hours 30 minutes

Your tour starts with meeting your guide at the Fontana del Tritone in Piazza Barberini. Then, follow your guide to the Museum and Crypt of Capuchins, steps from the piazza. Head inside, don your audio guide headsets and explore the Bone Chapel, adorned with the bones of 4,000 Capuchin monks, and the Christian Catacombs, where early Christians practiced their faith. Board an air-conditioned bus and head to the Catacombs of Domitilla, an underground Christian cemetery. See the frescoes, unusual iconography, burial places, and places of worship while your historian guide provides context. Exit the Catacombs, hop back on the bus, and depart for the Basilica of San Martino ai Monti. In this unassuming church, see the wall frescoes by artists such as Pietro Testa and Giannangiolo Canini. Your tour ends with drop-off at Piazza Barberini or Viale del Monte Oppio, depending on the day.
