Our tour guide was hilarious and really informative. The catacombs part was a disappointment as it was very small. The basilica was magnificent

Who knew this was a hidden gem in New York City. There is so much history here. I hung on every word our tour guide had to say. Not to be missed.

It was interesting, but could have added something to make it a little more exciting or fun. Dont answer phone while giving a tour.
