Catacombs - Alessandro was an amazing tour guide! His English is great, he’s very funny, and informative. He gave personal restaurant recommendations and you get a real sense he loves what he does.

Alexandro is great. - Really very good. Driver was very friendly and knowledgeable. This was a tour we were not sure about doing. The catacombs were interesting but the driver was amazing. I would love to have him drive us all round Rome. Alexandro we salute you.

Super interesting - I’ve been there last month with a couple of friends and we were welcomed by the warm staff of Touristation. Before the tour, we watched a show about the Ancient Rome which was very interesting. After that, one of the staff brought us at the meeting point for the transfer which was so funny and incredible thanks to the driver Alessandro. The visit itself was interesting too and on the way back we were very satisfied about the tour. I really recommend it. Thank you!

Visit of the catacombs - The visit to the catacombs was very interesting. The bus tour was very pleasant, our driver was very caring and a very good guide even if he claims only Roman driver in love with his city. Not to be missed!

Guffent exciting experience! - We've never had such a good experience before. These catacombs are an engineering art that our minds cannot fully understand, but experiencing them was a lifelong experience! If you want to have a little beyond the usual experience when you are in Rome, we highly recommend you take the trip!

Worth it - Very lovely spot and a good tour. It’s a bit of a hike from the ticket agent to the bus so wear comfy shoes. The tours are led by seminarians and have a religious tone. But then again they are catacombs!
