How to visit the Rome catacombs on the Appian Way - which ones, what it costs, and what to wear.
I went out on the Appian Antica with Walks of Italy to visit ancient tombs, Roman aqueducts, and the catacombs of one of the most venerated saints.
I cover what to wear, what the tour costs, who it suits, and which other catacombs in Rome are worth your time.
