I’ve been there. Difficult to find, but a pretty cool trip. Well worth it.

Yeah, I second that.  Just as cool as the actual catacombs is all of the old grafitti that’s been left there over the years.  Definitely worth it.

From what I understand the real catacombs are very hard to find and technically illegal to go in, but I’ve heard some crazy stories.  I think your best bet would be to find a local who can guide you through, but remember it can be kinda dangerous if you don’t know where you’re going as it’s one big maze.
