Explore Rome’s Capuchin Crypts, then follow ghost stories and dark legends through the city’s historic streets.

About this tour

Pair two sides of Rome’s history in one 4-hour experience, from the bone-lined Capuchin Crypts to shadowy streets filled with ghost stories. This Rome Capuchin Crypts and Ghost Tour combines a 2-hour visit to the crypts and historic center with a 2-hour nighttime walk through the city’s darker legends.

At the Capuchin Crypts, encounter striking displays made from the bones of thousands of people and hear about the symbolism behind them. Then follow stories tied to Rome’s past, including WWII tales, notorious poisoners, executioners, and the inspiration for Sweeney Todd. The ghost walk brings more eerie characters into view, from a scientist facing execution to a count associated with magic and a female pope said to haunt a bridge. Along the way, see familiar landmarks such as the Trevi Fountain through a darker lens.

Take both tours on the same evening, with a one-hour break, or arrange them for separate evenings; the team will contact you to confirm your preference. Book this Rome Capuchin Crypts and Ghost Tour for a memorable mix of history, atmosphere, and local legend.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 5.00 from 27 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 8.2. Top 11% in Rome means it ranks in the top 11% of tours in Rome by this score.
