5.00Ariel was a true delight as a guide for our catacombs tour. Knowledgeable and plenty of anecdotes! She is worth taking the tour all over again. Ben led our tour of ghosts and horribleness. A great wit, and much information about the evils of men in Ancient Rome.
A MUST WHEN IN ROME

5.00Hello dear team, I would like to thank you very much for yesterday's tour. And special praise goes to my tour guide, who provided first aid immediately when a man was hit by a car before we started the tour. The tour guide reacted excellently in this situation. Overall, she was a great companion for the entire tour. I am always amazed at how much knowledge and information the guides have. As for the tour itself, I can only say: WOW! The many impressions and facts about what I saw kept me busy for quite a while afterwards. I can really recommend this tour to every visitor to Rome. Thank you very much for this great opportunity. Best regards Susann

5.00Such a fun and creative way to see the city. And the Capuchin Monks-wow! We loved both our guides… they shared such unique details that most people would likely never know. And they did it with a personal touch. Thank you!
Memorable experience

5.00An amazing experience for our party, 1 adult and 2 teenagers. Our guide, Arielle, was knowledgable and funny, the tour was interactive , captivating the attention of the youngsters. Many “AHA” moments. Need to mention that with larger groups/tours/companies, the guide is not allowed in the Capuchin crypt, so the experience is so much more valuable then an audioguide. We are happy that we chose the Combo tour as they “complimented” each other with dark stories . It was the best part of our short trip to Rome and the one that most certainly will remain in the kids memory l. As for the adult… well, 4th time in Rome and it was very nice to find out less known facts about this incredible town and its history. Definitely worth the tour! Not to mention the support from customer care with ticket, reservation. Congrats and many thanks I recommend booking directly from their website
Creepy and fascinating - just what we wanted

5.00Marilena gave us a great tour. She was knowledgable about the Franciscan friars which added a lot of value when we toured the crypt. She also gave us interesting and spooky tidbits about places around the city as we walked from location to location.
Ivana was an amazing...

5.00We did both the Capuchin Crypts Tour and the Dark Side Ghost Tour on our last day in Rome, and they turned out to be some of the most memorable experiences of the trip. The stories and history shared weren’t the typical facts you'd easily stumble upon, which made the tours feel unique and worthwhile. A big shoutout to Alythia, our guide — she struck a great balance between being informative and engaging, and made an effort to connect with everyone in the group. A really solid way to wrap up our time in the city.
