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) is not included. 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.

Mario is a very pleasant, interesting, and cultured guide. An enriching visit in a great atmosphere. Discovery of unsuspected places in the undergrounds of Rome
Merci beaucoup on est heureux à savoir que vous avez aimés notre visite à la Fontaine de Trevi avec Mario!
We visited the underground passages of the fountain, then we went in front of the fountain. However, we regret not having been able to go to the edge of the fountain. The guide was fantastic.
Merci pour votre retour et pour vos gentils mots sur notre guide. Nous sommes ravis que la visite des souterrains de Trevi vous ait plu. Nous comprenons votre déception de ne pas avoir pu vous approcher davantage de la fontaine. En effet, cette visite est consacrée au site archéologique de Vicus Caprarius et, comme indiqué sur le bon de réservation, elle ne prévoit pas d'accès au bord de la fontaine. Nous espérons néanmoins que vous avez passé un agréable moment et serons heureux de vous accueillir à nouveau lors d'une prochaine visite.
It wasn’t what we expected. Thought we were going underground to see how the Trevi Fountain worked. The guide was very informative though.
We are really sorry to hear that you did not enjoy the experience with us to the fullest, we will make sure that our voucher will be clearer on the inclusions.
It was brilliant getting to see the underside of Rome, and the guide was so knowledgeable and friendly
Thank you! We are glad to hear that you enjoyed our Trevi Fountain tour.
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.
Great tour! Not too long either which was nice. Tour guide was informative. Highly recommend to anyone
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.
