Federico is an amazing guide! A little disappointed that there are no bones in the catacombs, but it was still a good tour.

Our tour guide spoke excellent English and had a deep love for Roman history. She made the tour exciting and informative, her passion for the city came shining through with every fact she gave us. History tends to bore me when it’s presented in a numerical recitation of facts, but it was presented in such a way that I was enthralled the whole time. Lots of walking, but our 5 and 14 year olds did just fine. I highly recommend the Catacomb tour for anyone wishing to learn more about Rome.

We took the Crypts, Bones, and Catacombs yesterday with our guide, Federico. The tour was excellent, especially Federico's passionate and knowledgeable commentary. There were individual audio receivers which meant you could hear the guide no matter where you were situated in the group - a definite bonus! Highly recommended.
