Catacombs of Rome Exclusive After Hours and Bone Chapel (Capuchin Crypts) Tour
Your tour begins at a designated meeting point in Piazza Barberini, by the large Triton (Tritone) fountain. Once you've met your guide and joined the small visiting group (not more than 15 people), you will be seated in an air-conditioned coach and driven to the first stop on the tour - the Capuchin Crypt.
Capuchin CryptAt the crypt, better known as the “Bone Chapel”, you will discover the mortal remains of over 4,000 deceased Capuchin monks used as decorations. The tour also gets you access to the Capuchin Museum where your guide will help you understand the Capuchin beliefs on life and death that motivated the creation of such a macabre memorial.
Roman Catacombs exclusive after-hours visitNext, hop back on to the coach and head to the Catacombs of San Sebastiano - the main highlight of the tour. You will be part of a special group with exclusive access to visit the Catacombs after its closing hours. The eerie charm of the catacombs are usually lost when you visit it during the day and the tunnels are thronging with tourists. However, on this tour, you will be alone in the catacombs with only your group, your guide and the remains of more than a thousand Christians to give you company.
Finally, get dropped off back at Piazza Barberini in central Rome, convenient for both the metro and restaurants for you to continue your evening at leisure.
