Christian Rome, Basilicas and catacombs - Luxury Private Tour
Overview
This tour has been designed to visit the most important places of Christianity in half a day and in a very comfortable way.
We'll discover how the martyrs planted the seeds for the development of the Christian religion in Rome, which quickly began to gain followers against the prevailing paganism, until the conversion of the Emperor Constantine (IV century).
After pick-up at the hotel, you'll drive to St. John Lateran, the Basilica of St. John (the Cathedral of Rome) and the Holy Stairs.
You will learn about St. Elena's pilgrimage to the Holy Land, from where she brought the most important relics of Christianity to Rome.
You will then visit the Church of St. Mary Major, also known as Our Lady of the Snows because of the miracle of its construction.
To round off this journey through spirituality and history, you will visit a catacomb on the Via Appia: the Catacomb of St. Sebastian or that of St. Calixtus, depending on the opening days.
