Rome Sightseeing & Underground Tombs

Enjoy some of the magical sights of Rome and explore the famous underground catacombs. Begin with a 90-minute drive into Rome and drive past St. Paul's Basilica, the Pyramid of Caius Cestius, and Circus Maximus. Stop in the vicinity of Venice Square and explore this open space, by foot, known for the monument dedicated to the first king of Italy. Continue walking by the Roman Forum and the Colosseum for an outside view and take a few minutes of free time. Proceed to the Arch of Constantine, and then drive to a typical Roman restaurant for a delicious lunch. After lunch, drive to the Catacombs of Rome. This underground maze of tunnels is where the early Christians, persecuted by the Romans, had to practice their religion in secret and bury their dead.
