Private Underground Rome and Catacombs Morning Tour On this private tour you’ll have the opportunity to visit the spooky Catacombs of Santa Domitilla, one of the largest and most ancient underground Christian cemeteries in the world. Its miles and miles of eerie twisting tunnels house hundreds of thousands of graves, as well as some of the world’s oldest Christian images and the haunting underground church of Santi Nereo ed Achilleo. In the basilica of San Clemente meanwhile, just a stone’s throw from the Colosseum, you’ll admire astonishing medieval mosaics and some of the most important paintings of the Early Renaissance. Making our way down secret staircases, we will descend into the 3 underground levels hidden beneath the church - including a perfectly preserved hidden church and a mysterious ancient Mithraic temple.
