Fun! - This was a really fun experience. Our guide (unfortunately, i forgot his name) was a lot of fun. He explained everything and made the experience memorable. Something about the catacombs felt heavy. It’s hard to understand how complex these tunnels are. It’s no wonder they’re guided. I can see how easy it is to get lost!

Awesome tour, highly recommend - Gabrielle did a fantastic job with our tour, he was very easy to find and fluent in both Italian and English. The catacombs portion was amazing and the bus between the crypts and catacombs was very comfortable. Fantastic experience and highly recommend!

Fascinating and Unexpected! - This is two different sites in one tour. First, we went to the Capuchin Crypts, which set out the history of the capuchin monks...and why they have all those bones in their church! An excellent education for the modern person! As Wikipedia rightly states, "if is not meant to be macabre, but a silent reminder of the swift passage of life on Earth and of mortality. The second site we went to was a nunnery sited above catacombs dating back 800 years...or more. No human remains are on display, but a nun walked us through one floor (of 3-4) of the final resting places of likely hundreds of people who dies during the first half of the last millennium. Absolutely educational and thought-provoking!

Didn’t get to see much. - I was expecting more. Our tour even ran pretty long and we still didn’t see a lot. Obviously the catacombs are huge and you can’t see it all but the tour was very lack luster. Our group tour guide was great but the woman guiding at the catacombs was not great. It was ALOT of talking and not a lot of seeing. I absolutely understand that they want to explain what we’re seeing but it was too much. We were in the catacombs for over an hour and we saw like 3 things. The woman guiding the tour definitely does not know how to sum things up. Each of the few times we stopped at something, they talked for at least 20 minutes about that one thing. I appreciate them knowing about these things but we don’t need every tiny detail. We could’ve seen a lot more if they done less talking and summed stuff up. It got very boring. The catacombs were very cool to see and wish we got to see more of them. The tour also went well over the time they said, so if you do this, expect it to be more than 2.5 hours. Also be aware, you cannot take photos in the catacombs. Wish we were told that ahead of time.
