This small-group e-bike tour in Rome covers the Appian Way, the Catacombs, and the Park of the Aqueducts over about five hours. Participants ride either a full suspension electric mountain bike or a comfortable e-bike. The tour begins with a visit to the Catacombs, except on Christmas, Easter, and New Year's Day when they are closed. Afterwards, the route follows the Appian Way past the Villa of Maxentius and the Mausoleum of Cecilia Metella. Riders then explore the Park of the Aqueducts to see the remains of ancient Roman aqueducts like Aqua Claudia and Aqua Felix. Along the way, there is a food break at a local water bottling plant popular with Romans, offering typical Roman dishes with vegetarian and gluten-free options. Bottled water, helmets, and bicycle use are included. The tour includes a live guide, and lunch is served on morning tours while an aperitivo is offered for afternoon tours. Participants should have good cycling experience as the route covers natural park areas and historic sites. Children under 12 years are not permitted, and alternate catacombs visits are arranged if some sites are closed due to holidays or weekday schedules.
