Description

Rome's underground attractions, including the Catacombe Di Domitilla and Vicus Caprarius or the Basilica of San Clemente, hold plenty of surprises, most of which stay hidden if you visit on your own. Join a guide instead to explore these subterranean realms and learn the history and significance of these ancient sites as you make your way below. Ideal for history buffs after an in-depth experience. Please note: You will enjoy an independent visit to either Vicus Caprarius or the Basilica of San Clemente (subject to change for operational reasons). This small-group experience includes transportation, all admission tickets, and a live guide for the Catacombs.

Itinerary

Catacombs Of St. Sebastian
Admission included60 min

Step into the hidden world beneath Rome with a visit to the Catacombs of San Domitilla, one of the oldest and most extensive underground burial sites. Setting off from our Show Me Italy office at Via dei Serpenti 114, you'll follow your guide through part of a vast 180-mile network of tunnels, where early Christians found refuge and laid their loved ones to rest. Your expert guide brings to life the stories of religious persecution, burial rituals, and the rise of Christianity in Rome. Along the way, take in ancient tombs, early Christian artwork, and beautifully preserved frescoes that offer a glimpse into the past.

Vicus Caprarius – the City of Water
Admission included30 min

Enhance your Rome experience with a visit to Vicus Caprarius – The Water City. Just steps from the Trevi Fountain, this underground site offers a unique look at ancient Roman life and water systems. It's self-guided, and we'll provide the entry tickets — a small add-on that leaves a big impression.

Admission included30 min

Enjoy an independent visit to the Basilica of San Clemente, where you can explore three layers of history: a 12th-century basilica with stunning mosaics, a 4th-century church beneath it, and an ancient Roman house and Mithraic temple at the lowest level.
