“This tour was fantastic. We had tried in the past to see the appian way by foot and failed- not making it past the catacombs of St Callixtus. The was by far the best way to encompass such a wide area . Our guide was very knowledgeable and plenty of cultural sites. Some of the roads used go through traffic and through narrow bike paths. It is not for the novice bike rider or young children”
