• Museum and Crypt of Capuchins - The Capuchin Crypt provides a captivating start to the tour. Capuchin monks artistically used the bones of nearly 4,000 of their brethren to adorn this solemn space with intricate designs from floor to ceiling, earning it the eerie nickname of ‘the Bone Chapel’.

Fewer visitors venture into the Bone Chapel after dark, allowing ample opportunity to explore every detail of this unusual place of worship, from a genuine skull-and-crossbones to chandeliers crafted from human vertebrae. The guide will share various theories, but it is up to the visitor to interpret the meaning behind the crypt’s skeletal decorations.

• Catacombe di Priscilla - An air-conditioned coach will transport visitors to the next destination, the Catacombs of Priscilla. No other tour is allowed to enter these sacred tunnels after-hours. Nearly 2,000 years ago, early Christians sought refuge here to bury their dead and practice their forbidden faith. With no other visitors present, and with an expert, English-speaking guide to narrate the history of the tombs and tunnels, one can truly absorb the atmosphere of this revered location.

Descend with the setting sun into Rome’s enigmatic underworld – and the city will never appear the same again.
