    The Porta San Sebastiano, originally known as Porta Appia, is one of the largest and best-preserved gates in the Aurelian Walls, which encircle ancient Rome. This impressive structure marks the beginning of the historic Appian Way, Rome’s “Queen of Roads,” and serves as a stunning reminder of the city’s ancient defensive systems. A Majestic Entrance: Marvel at the grandeur of this massive gate, which dates back to the 3rd century AD and was a critical part of Emperor Aurelian’s fortifications. Learn how Porta San Sebastiano served as a key military defense point, guarding the road that led to the south of Italy.

  2. Catacombe di San Callisto

    Uncover the secrets of early Christianity with a guided tour of the Catacombs of San Callisto, one of Rome’s most significant underground burial sites. Established in the 2nd century, these catacombs served as the official cemetery of the Church of Rome and are a testament to faith, history, and architecture. Explore Ancient Underground Passageways: Wander through a labyrinth of tunnels stretching over 12 miles, where popes, martyrs, and early Christians were laid to rest.

  4. Chiesa del Domine Quo Vadis

    The Church of Domine Quo Vadis, also known as the Church of Saint Mary in Palmis, is a small yet profoundly significant chapel located on the legendary Appian Way. This humble site is steeped in Christian tradition and offers visitors a moment of reflection amidst the echoes of history. The Famous Encounter: According to tradition, this is where Saint Peter, fleeing persecution in Rome, encountered a vision of Christ. When Peter asked, “Domine, quo vadis?” (“Lord, where are you going?”), Jesus replied, “I am going to Rome to be crucified again.” Moved by the vision, Peter returned to Rome to face martyrdom. Sacred Footprints: Inside the church, you'll find a marble slab believed to bear the footprints of Christ, marking the spot of this divine encounter.

Golf cart tour

Due to an accident, our golf cart with Ramtin arrived 30 minutes late, but he totally made up for the delay! He is a wonderful driver and treated us to Gelato on the way back to the hotel!! The nicest guy you could ask for. The catacomb tour was good but the golf cart was the best!!

Response from the operator: Dear Susan, Thank you so much for your kind review! We truly appreciate your understanding regarding the unexpected delay caused by an accident. We're especially happy to hear that Ramtin made your experience memorable with his friendly service and, of course, some delicious gelato! It's wonderful to know you enjoyed the golf cart tour through the Appian Way and that it became the highlight of your day. We'll be sure to share your lovely comments with Ramtin. We hope to welcome you back to Rome for another unforgettable adventure!

Great experience

We had a great experience. Pick up at the Hotel by Chiro(?). We drove next to Colloseum and further major monuments to Via Appia, visited the catacombs and could choose where we wanted to exit the golf cart. A very cool experience with a fantastic driver, who was really interested in history and could explain a lot to us. Very friendly!

Response from the operator: We’re delighted to hear that you had such a great experience exploring the Appian Way and the Catacombs with Ciro. This tour combines some of Rome’s most fascinating history with unique locations that many visitors never get to see, and we’re so happy you enjoyed it. Ciro is passionate about Roman history and loves sharing stories and insights with our guests. We’ll be sure to pass along your kind words to him. It’s wonderful to know that his knowledge, friendliness, and enthusiasm helped make your day so memorable. Thank you for choosing us, and we hope to welcome you back to Rome for another unforgettable experience soon!

Emilia was a five star guide!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🌟

Emilia is a fantastic tour guide! We enjoyed the catacombs, but Emilia as our guide was the best part. She was also in communication with me and was very easy to locate for pick up. Appian Way is beautiful. I am glad we took this golf cart tour, but I can’t imagine the bike riding option…the road is extremely bumpy.

Response from the operator: That is wonderful to hear! Thank you for the 5-star review! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🌟 We are thrilled that you enjoyed the Jubilee 2025 Underground Rome & Appian Way: Golf Cart Experience. We agree—Emilia is a fantastic guide, and we're delighted to know she was the best part of your tour! We will certainly pass along your high praise to her. We are also glad you appreciated the beautiful Appian Way and found the golf cart tour to be the perfect way to navigate the road's bumpy terrain!

Exclusive Rome Golf Cart Tour: Catacombs, Appian Way: questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Rome.

How much does Exclusive Rome Golf Cart Tour: Catacombs, Appian Way cost?

+

Prices start at $65 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Rome usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

How long does Exclusive Rome Golf Cart Tour: Catacombs, Appian Way take?

+

Plan for about 2.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Rome is not rushed.

Is Exclusive Rome Golf Cart Tour: Catacombs, Appian Way worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 59 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Rome, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Can I cancel or reschedule Exclusive Rome Golf Cart Tour: Catacombs, Appian Way?

+

Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

Is Exclusive Rome Golf Cart Tour: Catacombs, Appian Way suitable for kids and families?

+

The operator sets a minimum age of 6. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 2.5-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book Exclusive Rome Golf Cart Tour: Catacombs, Appian Way?

+

Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Rome can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

What should I bring or wear?

+

Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Rome and add a light layer if any part of the 2.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Exclusive Rome Golf Cart Tour: Catacombs, Appian Way start and how do I get there?

+

The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Rome within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

What are the best things to do in Rome?

+

Rome runs on skip-the-line access. The Colosseum underground, the Vatican before opening, and the catacombs south of the walls all require a licensed operator, and the price gap between the good ones and the rest is smaller than you would expect. We rank by guide credentials, group size and how reliably the promised access actually materialises. On Outty we rank every Rome experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Rome Pasta and Tiramisu Class: Ravioli, Fettuccine & Fine Wine 5*, Pasta Making & Wine Tasting with Dinner in Frascati from Rome, Rome: Pizza & Tiramisu or Gelato Class with Flowing Fine Wine 5*. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

When is the best time to visit Rome?

+

April, May, September and October. August is hot and half the city is shut. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

How many days do you need in Rome?

+

Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

+

Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
