About this tour
Trade Rome’s traffic for quiet country lanes on a guided e-bike journey along the Appian Way. This Rome Appian Way E-Bike Tour pairs ancient history with open landscapes, taking you from the city toward the Catacombs and the monumental arches of Aqueducts Park.
Meet your guide near Circo Massimo and ride by private shuttle to the route. After visiting the Catacombs, set off by e-bike along the historic Appian Way, passing ancient tombs and fields beneath Rome’s wide skies. Your local guide shares stories of the road and its surroundings as you continue to Aqueducts Park, where towering Roman arches reveal the scale of the city’s engineering. The shuttle ride takes about 20 minutes each way, and roughly 90% of the cycling route follows the old Roman paving.
An e-bike, helmet, Catacombs entry, and round-trip transfer are included, with a baby seat available for children up to 20 kg. Bring basic to intermediate cycling skills for the countryside terrain. Choose this Rome Appian Way E-Bike Tour for a memorable way to see the city’s ancient landmarks beyond its busy streets.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.92 from 451 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.
How the score works and rating distribution in Rome
- Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
- Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
- Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
- The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 8.5. Top 7% in Rome means it ranks in the top 7% of tours in Rome by this score.
