What to expect

Get ready to have your assumptions about Rome turned upside down on this incredibly unique journey of discovery. The itinerary includes some of the most uncommon, mysterious and outlandish sites the Eternal City has to offer. After a guided tour of the Catacombs of Domitilla, visit the Capuchin Crypt and learn about the friars' simple lifestyle, closeness to the poor and spirit of fraternity.

Start your experience by taking a panoramic bus to reach the Catacombs of Domitilla. Then embark on a fascinating underground tour of the catacombs, taking you into the unusual history of Rome. Learn how this extensive network of underground tunnels, dating back almost 2,000 years to the 2nd century AD, was once a burial ground and a place of worship for the early Christians in Rome.

After the guided tour, you'll visit the famous Capuchin Crypt in Via Veneto on your own with an audio guide. Learn about the crypt and the remains of the approximately 4,000 friars decorating the floor-to-ceiling designs, lending it the macabre nickname of "the Bone Chapel". Explore the museum to discover the history of the religious order from its origins in the 16th century to the present day.
