    First off, our tour guide Heather was fantastic. She was very bubbly, fun & knowledgeable. Unfortunately, the tour was mediocre. If you’re expecting bones…don’t do this tour. The photo is misleading & there are literally no bodies or bones in these catacombs. Far outside Rome & would not do again or recommend.

    Nothing was memorable except the euro32 taxi ride to the catacombs meeting site to discover it was closed. Other taxis arrived also. The tour operators stated they called me. They did not, no calls. In fact the day before I received a message to confirm the meeting time and place. Got to be joking you didn’t know catacombs would be closed Easter ahead of time. I called La Vacanza Travel asked for discount on next tour because I wasted money and time. Very disappointing.

    Mike is a great story teller and he knows his history. I attended this tour with my 2 teenage boys, both of whom were engaged and intellectually challenged. The highlight of this tour is being within reaching distance from some of the earliest known Christian frescoes depicting Peter and Jesus Christ. It was yet another testimony of the reality of His divinity.

    This tour was amazing! If you don’t go on this tour you are really missing out. It was definitely a highlight of our trip to Rome. Our guide was OUTSTANDING. I can’t remember his name but he was from South Africa and is getting married next Month.

    Absolutely loved the tour guide - Heather. Very interesting tour. I actually booked this thinking it was the Capichin crypts, it’s not. The first photo of skulls is not at the catacombs, it’s a little misleading. But I highly recommend this tour!
