Description:

Cruise past 2000 years of history on Rome's most scenic ancient road, the Appian Way. This is the road St. Peter took as he fled Rome under the persecution of Nero and where Spartacus and his followers were crucified.

The Appia closes to regular vehicle traffic once a week each Sunday, making for a take a breaking exploration by Segway. Travel in groups of 8 people or less, stopping for lunch (included) at a local cafè. Enjoy a 30-minute pre-tour training where you learn how simple it is to learn to ride a Segway.

The history that took place on the Appia was so impactful that it is still tangible today, whether through the Roman aqueducts or the villas of the early Christians, under which a network of hundreds of miles of catacombs were dug. In World War II, the Allies and German troops marched down these same cobblestones as they battled for Rome.

Stop at the Church of Domine Quo Vadis, erected in honor of the apostle Peter who, fleeing execution in Rome via the Appian Way, had a vision of Jesus here which convinced him to return to Rome and accept his destiny. Catch a glimpse of Capo di Bove, an important 2nd century thermal bath. At each stop you enjoy an audio-visual explanation on a personal iPod.

Enjoy a generous lunch (included) at a cozy cafè right on the Appia Antica. You have your choice of dishes. Choose between pasta (Lasagna, Cannelloni or Cold Pasta Salad), sandwich, or your choice of a large salad. Top off your meal with a drink, dessert, and an espresso coffee.
