Underground Verona
History is always interesting. The second half above ground part was boring and we were surprised we didn’t see more archaeological excavations. We left early.

Back in time under the streets of Verona
Very informative tour delivered by extremely knowledgable guides. Most of the tour was conducted by Maria. Not only did she have the information but it was obvious that she loved to impart it. She was wonderful.

The best tour in Verona
Our guide Morena was fabulous. We've spent almost 10 weeks in Verona over three years and this was the best thing we have done in the city yet! She knew everything about the roman city and going underground at the two places we went was really amazing. And she let us practice our Italian! Grazie mille

Marie was very well informed and very knowledgeable,on the subject of the ruins. She interacted very well with the child in the group ,to make him feel more involved.

Great way to go deeper (literally)
This was a very interesting tour, looking at some Roman archaeological sites beneath the city with actual scientists who worked on the projects. It’s a great way to experience more about the history of Verona.

Fantastic and Very Informative!
The tour takes you to two underground sites in the city where you can see excavated Roman ruins. Our guide was an archaeologist who actually worked on one of the sites so was extremely well qualified and knowledgeable about both the sites and all the relevant history in general, plus a delightful person! This tour was fascinating and absolutely well worth booking.

An activity not to be missed!
This experience was as interesting as it was enriching, and even if you are not an expert in archaeology, everything was clear. It takes place first under the square where the meeting is held, then in the city in different places, and the tour lasts a good hour and a half. The two speakers are passionate and fascinating. I recommend it.
