HOW GET THERE (and come back)
​
The Catacombs of Saint Callixtus are a short car ride by from the city center of Rome (about 20minutes) and by car is actually the best way to go. (Recommended)
UBER is available in Rome. Do not hesitate to download the App right here www.uber.com
​
On the same UBER App you can also choose a CAB if your prefer, or if you are somewhat literate in Italian you can also call the CAB service over the phone dialing +39(Italy) 063570.

​
As a last resort (NOT recommended) as the road outside is very narrow and particularly dangerous, as cars pass frequently and quite in a hurry, there are public buses that can get you nearby and these are the bus numbers:
118 from the Colosseum or the Circus Maximus
218 from the Basilica of San Giovanni
714 from Termini Station to Piazza di Navigatori (to which you can add a kilometer on foot)
660 from the Arco di Travertino Metro. The latter line is recommended in case of closure of the historic center.
