It was a cool, not so popular thing to experience. I usually don't like audio tours but this was well done - styled like an interview. Very informative. The crypt was interesting to say the least, and the Gregorian opera was amazing. I only wish they would do some longer pieces.

What a truly amazing and memorable event! We were given an extremely interesting tour of the crypt, followed by the most beautiful concert. The team - Roma Opera Omnia are true professional's delivering a superb event. We would highly recommend this tour, it is excellent and worth every penny.

After a brief visit in the church, we headed to the crypt which housed four rooms decorated with bones mostly belonging to the Capuchins and one additional room without bones serving as their small chapel. The rooms with bones are incredibly interesting containing thousands of bones arranged as works of art. Each also contains the mummified remains of some of the monks. Afterwords, a concert with four singers performs religious songs through the ages. Listening with eyes closed is a heavenly sensation ending our unusual but definitely worthwhile experience.

What an incredibly unique experience. Our guide Angie was articulate and knowledgeable and provided an enthusiastic tour through the church and crypt which has no comparisons. The following concert left us in awe, the combined voices are from heaven.

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING 🥹 Me and my family, we have never seen something like this place, which made our experience very unique. The tour guide was passionate about what he was doing, so it was really interesting. We must admit that our favourite part was the concert! Sending big thanks to Paola Alonzi, Micaela Parrilla, Marco Ciardo and Stefano Sabene!!! They sang so beautifully evoking so many wonderful emotions. Since one of my family members had her birthday today, they also sang her a little happy birthday song and wrote little wishes onto the paper that was in the CD that we bought. We are truly glad to have come 💗
