On Footsteps of Paul

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"!

These locations are all referenced from the video “City of Rome'' from the English Study Bible/Book of Romans/Multimedia Gallery.

We will experience Rome the same way Paul did, thousands of years ago!

Tour Informations

Duration: 3 hours

Distance Travelled: walking tour of 3.4 kms (2.3 miles)

Meeting Point: set up on your GPS for (Circo Massimo Experience) close by the metro stop CIRCO MASSIMO

You will see your Tour Guide, Tony Barlocci, standing with the flag jw-rometours up!

Please allow enough time to arrive at our meeting point well in advance, especially on Fridays and on rainy days! Friday is the day of public transport strike, almost every month. Buses, subways, trams are often at risk from 9 am-5 pm, and catching a taxi in Rome in a strike or in a rainy day is nearly impossible. We suggest you allow enough time to arrive on foot or by rented electric scooter if public transportation is not available. Alternatively, you can also book a taxi or an Uber well in advance in order to avoid arriving at your meeting point too late and missing your tour.

I do not offer private tours!

Requests for the same tour/date will automatically be combined into the same group booking.

A comparable 3-hour walking group tour in Rome, on booking platforms like TripAdvisor, Viator etc, with 30 people or fewer, costs an average of 50 euros per person. This is why my group tours will always be a fantastic deal! Moreover I m one of the few that includes insurance coverage in the event of an accident, for ALL customers!

Your tour fee is fully refundable only if cancellation occurs up to 7 days prior to your scheduled tour.

Within 7 days of your scheduled tour, the tour fee is non-refundable!

If a refund is applicable, I will instantly initiate the refund process by crediting the funds back (it takes 2-3 days) to the original payment method used at the booking. This occurs once your cancellation has been confirmed.

Appian Way

THIS TOUR IS BY REQUEST, AND ONLY RUNS BETWEEN NOVEMBER AND MARCH INCLUSIVE (NOT SCHEDULED)!

Another amazing Biblical location, which is not included in any other tour, is the archaeological park of the Appian Way (3.5 miles from the city centre).

I can organize an unforgettable 2 1/2 hours walking tour, to discover the highlights of this incredible place which is mentioned in several Watchtowers.

We will visit the following historical artifacts preserved down to our day: villas with mosaics, many ancient tombs, street signs and mile markers that are preserved all the way from Paul’s day in Rome, and even admire the same vegetation that Paul would have admired.

Join me on this exciting journey to trace the Apostle Paul’s footsteps immersed in an atmosphere from another era!

VIP GROUP

from 1 up to 6 people : 300 euros (mimimum price)

SMALL GROUP

from 7 up to 15 people : 50 euros per person

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!
