About this tour
Trade Rome’s busy streets for the quiet lanes and ancient stones of the Appian Way. This 300-minute Rome Appian Way e-bike tour leads through the Appian Way Regional Park, one of Europe’s largest urban protected areas, and includes a guided visit to the Catacombs of St. Callixtus.
Ride along a road built in the 4th century BC that once stretched more than 500 km from Rome to Brindisi. Below ground, discover the historic funerary complex of St. Callixtus, set within a vast area of catacombs and burial grounds. A high-quality e-bike, helmet, and handlebar phone holder are provided. Morning departures include lunch and water; afternoon tours offer an aperitif with cold cuts and drinks near the Aqueducts Park.
Meet at Roma STARBIKE, close to the Colosseo Metro station. Riders should be confident cyclists, and the tour is not recommended during pregnancy. Choose this Rome Appian Way e-bike tour for a memorable mix of open-air scenery, ancient history, and an underground encounter with the city’s past.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.89 from 83 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 7.8. Top 16% in Rome means it ranks in the top 16% of tours in Rome by this score.
