Program Description
Delve beneath the ancient streets of Rome and uncover the secrets of a one mighty empire on a guided underground adventure. Meet your guide in the city center and head towards the Appian Way in a comfortable minivan. Reach one of the largest and oldest Catacombs of Rome and venture 16 meters below the surface into the otherworldly crypts of Domitilla. Explore the accessible part of its endless labyrinth of underground burial chambers laid out across four levels. Be captivated by ancient wall-paintings of mythological and biblical figures and discover the religious symbolism of the frescoes. Relive the shift of faith from paganism to Christianity and feel the power of prohibited belief while learning about early martyrs and persecutions. Live the excitement of gradually exploring different layers of history and complete your underworld experience in the 4th-century subterranean Basilica of Nereus and Achilleus.
