Appian Way
THIS TOUR IS BY REQUEST, AND ONLY RUNS 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 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 7 people : 350 euros (mimimum price)
SMALL GROUP
from 8 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 article: QUEEN OF THE HIGHWAYS
Catacombs
Why do I not include the Catacombs in my 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 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 my 3 hour Appian way Bible Tour, which starts in the same area, not far from there!

Hi Tony! thanks for putting yourself out like a drink offering in our behalf with your enthusiasm and great love for what you do. It was definitely the highlight of our visit to Rome, and we are so happy we booked with you.. your brothers from South Africa

If anyone gets the chance go on this tour! You’ll realise some of the common misconceptions about certain things are not as first believed. TRULY AMAZING TOUR AND WORTH TRAVELLING TO ROME JUST FOR THAT ALONE! It was the only one tour we were able to get on due to being booked up, but it was a revealing of Bible truths! Thank you so much from Sean and Dermot.. If we’re ever in town again we’ll be sure to do other tours, cheers

We THANK YOU so very much for the experience of a lifetime. We visited in May and did all 3 tours! Foot Steps of Paul, Colosseum and Vatican. We were in Italy for our first time from the United States and your tours were the highlight of our trip!
Such a wealth information, so many scriptures you mentioned for us to think about it.. It really made Revelation come alive!
Your knowledge, your information and your kindness were so appreciated! Still thanks Lnce and Mary Dotson
Thank you soo much 2 Cor 3:5 looking forward for seeing you again

Brother Tony, el tour ha sido muy animador y me ayuda a pensar mucho en mi servicio a Jah al pensar en hermanos como Pablo, Marcos y Lucas. El punto de cómo Pablo se para quedo allí 24 meses… ha tocado profundamente mi corazón para seguir sirviendo en áreas donde hay mucha necesidad pero son ciudades grandes costosas. Nunca había conectado esos detalles cuando Pablo apeló a él César y tuvo que mudarse allí por su propia cuenta.. la gira me ha ayudado a pensar en no tener miedo y confiar en Jehová y la hermandad. O al mismo tiempo buscar formas de apoyar a otros a servir a Jah que hacen también sacrificios por el reino. e
Espero en otra oportunidad poder tomar otro tour. .
Que Jah bendiga todos sus esfuerzos.
