Not as much as they promised

They changed the tour on his last minute. Understandably so, however, we are still waiting for a rebate on our trip. We only got to see the catacombs and did not get to see the prison as they told us. It was closed due to unforeseen circumstances.

Unorganized, disappointed

Hostess late, cancelled prison tour, we had to wait over an hour for the catacombs tour to begin. Rescheduled prison tour for the next day, host never did show up, we waited, left, finally the company contacted us to meet at another location. Guided tour lasted about 5 minutes. Highly disappointed. We wasted a LOT of time in Rome because of this company/tour

nice experience

the visit was amazing! We went to the prison first, which was really interesting. Then our guide took us to the catacombs, they were incredible! Our driver was also super friendly, and they dropped us off right in the city center. Everything was well organized and we had a great time

Don’t bother with this tour. Go on your own.

We were at meeting point 1/2 hr early and couldn’t find our guide because so many groups meet there. She called to find us, then walked us to the prison and left us. Told us to walk back to meeting point by 3 to go to the catacomb. Do not recommend.
