Itinerary
Meet your guide in front of the Trevi Religious Articles shop and find out together that the Trevi fountain is much more than a throw of a coin. Go beyond its captivating beauty and discover all the details that most tourists miss. Learn about its fascinating history and discover the mythological figures that take shape gracefully out of the raw stone below. Feel and hear the power of water, and perceive the message of this iconic masterpiece exactly as intended by its designer. Take a moment to admire the fusion of beauty and genius. Please note: Access to the Trevi Fountain restricted basin area (€2 fee). The guide will lead you to an excellent viewing point at the public piazza level.
Then immerse into the newly uncovered archeological site 9 meters below the ground. Find the only functioning ancient aqueduct which still supplies water to the fountain above, and visit the remains of an imperial Domus. Travel back in time and touch the millenary stratification beneath the streets of Rome.

Underground Rome was awesome but was unable to get close to fountain! The tour guide told us we had to get another ticket to get closer to fountain so that was a disappointment.
Thank you for your review. We are sorry to hear that you did not enjoy our tour, please note that it is mentioned in the voucher that, in order to go down to the fountain, you will need to purchase a different ticket as it is not included in our tour. Thanks!
Unfortunately the tour was less than what we’d hoped for. Our tour guide wasn’t all that enthusiastic which was disappointing given the cool context of the tour. We visited the underground via the museum called Vicus Carparius which is €4 to visit and although would have been self-guided feels like it would have offered more information than what we got. Our 7 year old wasn’t engaged at all which wasn’t a huge expectation but for a tour labeled good for kids it should have been a bit more lively.
We are sorry to hear that you did not enjoy our tour. Usually all our activities are meant for children as they should all be engaging - we will check with our guide and make sure they make it more lively.
Short and sweet however it did not include entry into the Trevi fountain foreshore. Guide was very knowledgeable
Thank you, we are glad to hear that you enjoyed our tour!
A great, informative experience. Our guide was very knowledgeable. We met at the prearranged location and promptly went underground. The area was very busy with other tours, but everything was carried out professionally. Would recommend
Thank you! We are glad to hear that you enjoyed our Trevi Fountain guided tour.

Thank you so much!! We are glad to hear that you enjoyed our tour.
Very informative but not too long! Long enough to appreciate the fountain and its ancient water supply origins and function.
Thank you! We are glad to hear that you enjoyed our tour.
Christina was incredible and very knowledgeable. She offered Rome a perfect representation of a tour guide! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️rating for her.
Thank you, we are glad to hear that you enjoyed our Trevi Fountain tour!
Full group, was probably too big of a group for the underground. Informative and knowledgeable, I wish the Trevi portion included the lower section near the basin (it did not). Our guide was nice.
Thank you for your review. We are sorry to hear that the experience did not live up to your expectations... please note that the voucher mentions all inclusions and exclusions as this is a tour of the Vicus Caprarius and Trevi Fountain.
The Guide was knowledgeable and enthusiastic. She did well. The information and underground ruins were amazing. But whomever manages this site allowed too many other tour groups in at the same time. Awfully crowded in a already tight space. But still worth the tour.
Thank you for your review, we are glad to hear that you enjoyed our guided tour at Trevi Fountain!
Too short a tour. The ground is disappointingly small.
We are sorry to hear that you did not enjoy the experience with us. The Underground is not extremely big, as shown in the pictures, but it is definitely an interesting place. We hope you enjoyed our guide's commentary!
