Hey, just doing some research for a one night stay in Rome. Do you need to prebook for a tour and what is the cost please.

As already indicated no pre-booking is necessary but you may need to wait for an English speaking guide if he or she is doing a tour at the time but it is worth the wait. It's only 8 euros and a friend who saw them with me felt the tour was better than some of the others she had seen in Rome.
Hello, can we just show up and request for the guided tour please?
A:
All tours inside the catacombs are guided tours. You can just turn up but the wait depends on the number of people visiting since each tour takes a max of 10/15 people.
I enjoyed your informative posting regarding your visit to Catacombe di Priscilla. Do you recall the cost of entry and tour?
A:
The forty minute tour cost eight Euros. You need to reserve a place through their website in advance, they confirm the timings on booking. I hope this helps?
Could someone advise me as to whether it costs more to get a guided tour or whether you just pay an entrance fee and wait for a tour in your language? Also i see someone has mentioned it is closed during August - is that just the tour guides not taking place or you cannot enter at all? Any other tips would be great! Thanks, Chloe, travelling a week today!!
