Overview of your Rome tour:

Often we say Rome is build in layers. It is true and with this tour you will find out why. When we think about Rome's undergound two main sites are coming to mind: the Catacombs and St Clement's Basilica. Rome's soil is vulcanic easy to dig, it is this peculiarity that allowed the ancient romans to develop a system of undergound burials called Catacombs. During the tour we will unveil a lot of misconseption about the history of the Catacombs. My husband worked here for few years and one of my friends for more than 23 years, they have trained me to give this tour. . . . no worries we will come out from the tunnels. . In 1857 Father Mullooly, Prior of the Church, started excavations underground St Clement's Basilica discovering the first layer underneath belonging to the IV century AD, consequently excavations continued and led to an even more ancient level of the I century AD. The visit of this incredible site is the best to understand what means the expression: Rome is built in layers.
