Full description Embark on an exclusive Underground Crypts and Catacombs Tour to unravel the mystique of ancient Rome. Our expert-guided journey through concealed realms, including crypts, catacombs, and burial chambers, promises an extraordinary exploration of the city's hidden treasures. Starting in Piazza Barberini, beside the Triton fountain, this unique tour delves into the historical significance of this square, once a public display site for unidentified corpses.

The tour's centerpiece is the renowned Capuchin Crypt, enriched by the official Capuchin Museum. Marvel at Caravaggio's "St. Francis in Meditation" and explore relics from St. Francis's life amidst the artistically arranged bones of 4,000 Capuchin monks. A comfortable coach ride takes you to the Christian Catacombs, revealing the sacred tunnels associated with ancient Rome's first Christians. Navigate labyrinthine corridors carved into volcanic rock, discovering frescoes, peculiar iconography, and burial sites with tales of a bygone era.

Conclude the underground adventure at the Basilica of San Nicola in Carcere, exploring ruins and uncovering ancient temples beneath the church. The seamless fusion of the Capuchin Crypt, Christian Catacombs, and San Nicola in Carcere offers an unforgettable exploration of Rome's rich history. Don't miss this extraordinary experience, providing a unique perspective on the captivating culture of the Eternal City.
