Wear shoes that will wipe...
Wear shoes that will wipe clean as it was a bit muddy in some spots! Great tour, Leonardo was very kind and gave us great information. We enjoyed the small group - only 4 of us

Appian Way - Beautiful bike tour
Beautiful bike tour with our guide Alessio, who was very knowledgeable about Roman history. Perfect tour for those who want to see a different side of Rome and exercise at the same time.

Rome from another angle
We went on the bike ride to see Rome from another angle, and had a very elaborate and nice trip with our guide Alessio. Will totally recommend.
via Tripadvisor
A must do!
This was definately a great experience. I had been to Rome in the past but hadn't seen the countryside or the catacombs. I recommend booking with them because they are very nice, professional and experienced. We were as a group of 4 plus the guide and that made it very enjiyable. Worth every penny.

Our Family is 10 and they assigned two guides ( Alessio and Michele) to help us which was extremely good. Everyone was safe and received a lot of Great information I would do it again in a minute. Thank you

Rome: Appian Way E-bike Tour, Catacombs, Aqueducts & Transfer: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Rome.
How much does Rome: Appian Way E-bike Tour, Catacombs, Aqueducts & Transfer cost?
+
Prices start at $94 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 Rome: Appian Way E-bike Tour, Catacombs, Aqueducts & Transfer take?
+
Plan for about 4.5 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 Rome: Appian Way E-bike Tour, Catacombs, Aqueducts & Transfer worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 87 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 435 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in Rome, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Rome: Appian Way E-bike Tour, Catacombs, Aqueducts & Transfer?
+
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 Rome: Appian Way E-bike Tour, Catacombs, Aqueducts & Transfer suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Rome: Appian Way E-bike Tour, Catacombs, Aqueducts & Transfer?
+
Around 152 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 4.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Rome: Appian Way E-bike Tour, Catacombs, Aqueducts & Transfer 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 Pizza & Gelato Class with Wine by Cooking Italy, Rome [4in1] Pasta Making_Tiramisù_Wine Tasting_Secret Cellar, Rome Pasta and Tiramisu Class: Ravioli, Fettuccine & 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.
