“On the Footsteps of Paul”
Wheat Tour - Rome, the way Paul would have experienced it!
This tour is not suitable for anyone with mobility issues who requires a walking stick, walker or wheelchair or is unable to walk longer distances. This tour includes climbing several steps and hills.
This excellent bible-based tour follows in the footsteps of Paul; roads and places he lived and visited in 1st Century Rome which are preserved down to our day! You do not need to purchase any entry tickets for this tour that is considered "the unmissable Bible experience"!

CATACOMBS
Why do we not include the Catacombs in our Bible tours?
The answer is in this article cited below. The Catacombs are not at all related to the history of the pure, early Witnesses! However, from a strictly historical point of view, they are very interesting.
If you want to visit the Catacombs we suggest: SAN CALLISTO or SAN SEBASTIANO.
A guided tour of 45 or 60 minutes hosted by their own internal Catholic guides is always included in your entry ticket price!
After you complete your Catacombs of the Appian Way tour, you could add our 3 hour Appian way Bible Tour, which starts in the same area, not far from there!
