Rome: Appian Way, Aqueducts & Catacombs Option E-Bike Tour – Rome, Italy

EXPERIENCE:

Indulge in all things Ancient Roman on this Ancient Appian Way, Catacombs, and Park of the Aqueducts E-bike tour. Ride through the Roman countryside, discover the engineering genius of the ancient Romans, and delve into the early Christian history that shaped the world to come.
Meet your guide and leave the city through St. Sebastian’s gate in the Aurelian Walls, and enter the Ancient Appian Way – a 2,400-year old thoroughfare that tells the story of Rome’s rise, golden age, and decline.
In the 6-hour version of the tour, make a stop underground at the Catacombs of St. Callixtus (or St. Sebastian) for a guided visit through its crypts and corridors (the 4.5-hour version of the tour will include an outdoor stop in the Catacombs area). Next, cycle further on the Appian Way, passing mausoleums, tombstones, and sprawling villas of ancient aristocracy.
Finally, head to the Park of the Aqueducts, where stretches of colossal arches rise against the warm afternoon light. After following these aqueducts back to modern civilization, cross the green Caffarella Valley. At its exit, you will begin your short ride back to the starting point – but not without one last highlight.
