Appian Way in early September

We are a group of three, visiting Rome for just 3 days before visiting the Amalfi Coast in early September. I have mapped out a moderate city walk for our first day - wanting to take it easy since that is when we arrive from North America. The following day I have booked a 4-hour walking tour with a local guide, leaving just the last full day for a visit to the Appian Way.

I have a few concerns, and who better to help with those than you all!
1) I've been warned that, while it is fairly straightforward to get there, arranging a return via taxi (FreeNow) or Uber can be difficult.
2) What advice do you have regarding start and stop points, given that we are walking, will be there on a Saturday, and concern #1?
3) Any great lunch opportunities you'd like to share would also be much appreciated.
I know that there are a few questions/answers on topic here, but the most recent are either bike-centric or for a very different time of year, so please indulge me!

Wikipedia has an extensive article on on the Appian Way which will answer most of your questions with photos showing sites along the way.

Yes, there is a LOT of information out there, but I was hoping to get some advice addressed to my specific questions/concerns
