Additional Information

Embark on a journey to the hidden gems of Rome with a kid-friendly guide and uncover the subterranean secrets of the ageless city!

Opt for our three-hour Children’s Excursion through the Underneath of Rome, featuring attractions such as the Capuchin Crypt, Vicus Caprarius, and the Stadium of Domitian.
Your meeting point is the entrance of the Church of Immaculate Conception on Via Veneto, where your guide will be waiting to illuminate the mystical stories connected to the over 4000 monks interred there. Their skeletal remains ornate the walls of the Capuchin Crypt in a eerily fascinating manner.

Discover the subterranean world of the Trevi Fountain, the Vicus Caprarius. You and your kids will be captivated by the exquisite beauty of the archaeological site acknowledged as the ‘water city’, as its primary role was to supply water in its vicinity.

Lastly, a stop at the Navona square will allow you to delve into its subterranean realm. Known to be a former racing stadium during Rome’s past, it stands today as one of the prominent symbols of the city.

Great Time! - Our tour guide was amazing. She kept it simple yet full of knowledge for our family (3 kids, 13, 11, 10). She gave us insider information, personalized our trip for us and even took us to a great gelato place. Fabulous time and we learned so much about Rome.
