Most Capuchin Crypt tours end at the bone chapels. Rather like leaving a murder mystery after chapter one.

Explore the crypts decorated with 3,700 bodies arranged into vertebrae chandeliers and skeletal wall patterns. We explain the symbolism before you enter, answer questions the venue required audio guide doesn't address, and make sense of what you're seeing.

Then we'll reveal Rome's darker side through its most famous monuments. The lesser known ghost at the Trevi Fountain.. The butchers whose sausages were Rome's best - and made from their customers. A noblewoman's perfect hands attracted a dark prophecy that came true in the worst possible way. An innkeeper insulted the wrong stranger and was beheaded in Piazza Navona the next morning.

Small groups of 10 people keep it intimate and easy to hear your guide.

Perfect for travelers who want to discover the executions, scandals, and ghost stories your guidebook diplomatically skips.
