Time well used - It was more awe inspiring than I could imagine. It reminds all that time flies and that life is not permanent.

Crypts & Catacombs - I only did the catacombs & Crypts tour as the guide had to cancel the ghost & mystery walk. Just as well as I was exhausted and ready to relax. The catacombs were fascinating and worth the time & effort. Comfortable bus and good guides.

Interesting - We did the combo tour and loved it. Laura was a fantastic guide for the catacombs. The catacombs was a fun and interesting tour. If you’re claustrophobic, you may have trouble at the first stop in the small walkways in the catacomb area. Walking/stairs wise: First catacombs were normal set of stairs then some inside that were stone but only 3-5 each time. The church has some steps up to the church (normal staircase) and then down into the crypt. Bus takes us everywhere though which is very nice. The ghost tour was good. I think that one will definitely depend on your guide though to how much you enjoy it. There’s a break between the 2 tours and you’re on your own that time and to get to the next meetup. There were a couple good stories and the walking isn’t too bad (though if you’ve been walking all day it may be a bit much).

Creepy crypts and spooky stories! - Both tours were good, with engaging guides (both of whom had some inaccuracies in their explanations but it worked for entertainment purposes). We didn't go to St. Clemente Church as mentioned in the catacombs tour explanation, but the church we did go to was very interesting. Sabina was very knowledgeable. The evening tour had the time listed incorrectly (we thought the tour began at 9 but that was check in time with tour at 9:15) so we were a bit concerned but Sami made up for it with his entertaining presentation. Note: there is a LOT of walking and stairs but it was a lot of fun.

Tour did not take us to Basilica di San Clemente as promised - Guide was very good, however my wife and I were VERY DISAPPOINTED that we did not visit the Basilca di SAn Clemente AS PROMISED when we booked the tour. This was the only reason we booked this tour. I am requesting a refund !

Dropped off the second half of tour - not haunted/mystery walking tour or underground/ancient Rome - all pro-christian. - Guides were great hosts but they dropped the ghost/night tour entirely. Also, this was NOT an underground Rome tour, yet is worded as such. And the locations we visited had NO lines and never would. It is a pro-Christian, Christian history tour. But nothing about ancient Rome, or Rome pre-christianity. I would not have booked this if it had been advertised for what it really is. The best part was the catacombs. While the crypt was pretty over-hyped(not a church made entirely of human bones, but a church which has an Andy Worhol-esque installation w very finely curated human bones lining walls & ceilings. Kind of cool, but not as advertised. Very disappointed that they dropped off the 1.5 hour night walking tour. Also, equally disappointed that I click-bait walked into 3 hour Catholic Mass tour. 100% pro-christian proganda, and 100% pro-christian history lesson, entirely ignoring Rome itself. Not at ALL underground Rome. Again though, the guides were very good and fun. But, essentially, I felt like we were being shown around by a priest in training.
