Unfortunately 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 about 75 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”!
Everyone who has taken all three tours still says the Colosseum and Vatican are must-sees, but Paul’s tour is the most touching!
Some of the locations are 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!

A comparable 3-hour walking group tour in Rome, on booking platforms like TripAdvisor, Viator etc, with 25 people or fewer, costs an average of 55 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 for all customers, in the event of injuries incurred during the tour!

Appian Way
THIS TOUR IS SET UP BY REQUEST ONLY, AND IS AVAILABLE ONLY BETWEEN DECEMBER 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 set up 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 8 people : 400 euros (mimimum total price)
SMALL GROUP
from 9 up to 15 people : 50 euros per person
The archeological park of the Appian Way, it is also the perfect place for a self-guided tour!
I suggest you to start and finish your amazing journey back in time from here, walking or renting a bike
With in hands ,the following watchtower magazine: QUEEN OF THE HIGHWAYS
Catacombs
Why do I not include the Catacombs in my Bible tours?
The answer is in the following W magazine G 95 8/8 pp. 16-20!
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 very interesting.
If you want to visit the Catacombs I 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!
Once you have completed your Catacombs tour, you could add my 2.30 Appian way Bible Tour, which starts in the same area, not far from there!
