As all the others places I have been spectacular views, klook needs to lower at least 20% the prices they are to high always double the price. The convenience is no lines to do. So is around 40 min you skip. But for 1st timers like me is ok.

A great experience! the meet up information was easy to find in such a big city! definitely would do it again! our tour guide Bili (not sure if I’m spelling correctly) was sweet and kind! She definitely made it a girls girls tour, often checking in for photo ops and bathroom breaks! She was amazing! We did the underground tour and although a small hiccup occurred with other guests, she made our tour a priority as well by getting us in at the expected time ✨✨

My guide Rafat was incredibly kind, attentive, and genuinely caring throughout the trip. He took great care of me the whole time. Even while riding bikes, he always prioritized safety, and he gave me many great recommendations for restaurants and the schedule. His advice was a huge help and made my trip much more enjoyable.

The tour allowed us to explore not only the Colosseum but also the Roman Forum and surrounding ruins, giving us a deeper understanding of the city as the heart of ancient Rome. Walking through the magnificent ruins and directly experiencing Rome's history and culture was a truly meaningful experience.

It was great that I could see all of Rome in one day with just one Big Bus ticket. I started at the Termini Station stop in the morning from my accommodation. I got off and saw the Circus Maximus and the Colosseum, then got back on the bus and passed the Altar of the Fatherland, Castel Sant'Angelo, Piazza Navona, and the Pantheon, then moved again by bus to the Spanish Steps and the Trevi Fountain!! It's all possible.

We booked a small group tour for our honeymoon! We met guide Hyeran, and for about 3 and a half hours, we were so engrossed in her passionate explanations that we didn't even realize how time flew by! As an 'I' (introvert), guide Hyeran, who is a big 'E' (extrovert), made me feel so comfortable. Thank you so much 🥹. Thanks to you, we are creating precious memories in Rome! Her 14 years of experience really showed,,, 👍👍👍👍 I wish I had known about guide Hyeran sooner, I would have loved to have her lead other city tours 😭😭. I was so sad to meet her on our last day in Rome,,, Anyway, I want to give myself a million compliments for finding this tour and booking it,,, ✌️✌️ Highly recommend for those who want professional explanations! Fun explanations! And various Italian tip information!

What to know about Catacombe di San Callisto
The Catacombe di San Callisto, also known as the Catacombs of St. Callixtus in Rome, is the ancient underground cemetery that was the official burial place for the early Christian community in the third century. Around half a million Christians, including martyrs and 16 popes like Pope Damasus, found their final resting place here.
The catacombs are named after Deacon St. Callixtus, whom Pope Zephyrinus put in charge of managing the cemetery in the early third century. Extending nearly 20 kilometers long and 20 meters deep with four levels, covering about 37 hectares, these Roman catacombs are a significant part of Rome's early Christian history.
Back then, Christians in Rome struggled to find proper burial grounds. They either had to bury their loved ones in Pagan cemeteries or on private land. To solve this, with the help of volunteers and donations, they started building the Catacombs of St. Callixtus, gradually expanding the official cemetery over time.
Explore this sacred site, where the history of the early Christian faith comes alive. Check out these tours and discover the stories of these Roman martyrs and the legacy they left behind in the Eternal City during early Christian Rome.

To express their faith safely, they used symbols in the catacombs, like the Monogram of Christ indicating a Christian's burial, the Good Shepherd representing Christ's care, and the Orante symbolizing eternal peace. You can discover these meaningful symbols at the Catacombs of St. Callixtus.
