A City Under the City

This archeological tour invites you to uncover Rome's lesser-known and darker side underground. We will discover the hidden treasures of an underground system used historically in the city's construction.

Meet us at the designated time next to Cancelliere Caffé to explore the Appian Way and Caffarella, revealing a concealed side of the Eternal City.

The labyrinth below extends from the Aurelian Roman Wall to Via dell’Almone. We will explore a historic quarry, gaining insight into the foundational elements of Rome's construction.

Moving on, we will visit a site for ancient mushroom cultivation, leading to the catacombs of Rome, where we will explore its historical significance and repurposed uses.

Next, we will visit the reconstructed Mithraeum, a worship area beneath the Appian Way, associated with the cult of Mithras.

Concluding the tour, we will return to street level for a wine tasting inspired by Marcus Gavius Apicius, a first-century Roman gastronomist.

After 2 hours of exploration, we will conclude the experience.
