Review of Tour of Jewish Catacombs - My father and I had an exceptional tour of the Jewish Catacombs in Rome, made truly memorable by our outstanding guide, Sara Terracina. From the very beginning, Sara went above and beyond—personally picking us up so we could more easily access the property where the catacombs are located. Once there, it was immediately clear how deeply knowledgeable she is, not only about the catacombs themselves but about Jewish history in Rome more broadly. What made the tour especially engaging was her ability to bring the history to life. Sara is an excellent storyteller, and her narratives about Jewish life in ancient Rome added richness, context, and emotion to what we were seeing. The catacombs felt less like an abstract historical site and more like a window into a living past. Her kindness and generosity did not end with the tour. She very graciously drove my father and me back to our hotel in the Jewish Ghetto, which was an incredibly thoughtful gesture. That additional time allowed us to further engage with her about her own background, her family’s history, and her life in Rome as a Jew. Those conversations added a great deal to the experience and made it feel genuinely personal. Throughout the entire tour, Sara was enthusiastic, patient, and always willing to answer our questions. She even offered to remain a resource for us for the rest of our time in Rome, which speaks volumes about her care, professionalism, and love for the subject. I would highly recommend this tour—and Sara Terracina in particular—to anyone seeking a knowledgeable, engaging, and deeply human introduction to Jewish history in Rome.
