The Underground Rome Experience offers an exclusive and fascinating journey into the depths of the Eternal City. It begins with a captivating explanation of the ancient systems used to construct the city's buildings, allowing you to understand the engineering marvels that shaped Rome’s iconic structures. The underground world you’ll explore stretches for several kilometers and has been used in different ways throughout history. In ancient times, these underground spaces became catacombs, accessible from the historic Via Appia Antica. Over the centuries, the galleries were repurposed, even becoming sites for mushroom cultivation in modern times, growing varieties like Pleus and Champignons.
Your guide will lead you through this hidden kingdom beneath Rome, where you’ll discover a side of the city few have ever seen. As you walk through these underground chambers, you’ll feel the same sense of awe and excitement experienced by archaeologists and spelunkers as they uncovered the long-buried traces of human activity, dating back hundreds, if not thousands, of years. This is a truly immersive adventure that will bring history to life in a way that you can only experience firsthand. With your helmet, light, and a sense of adventure, you’ll explore the unexpected and extraordinary world beneath the ancient city.

Roma Experience gave my wife and I a wonderful experience on the Skip the Line Vatican Museum, Sistine Chapel and Basilica tour. Our tour guide, Elisa was amazing. We thoroughly recommend Roma Experience.
During our recent visit to Rome, our amazing travel agent booked a Private Tour of the Colosseum, Roman Forum, and Palatine Hill through Roma Experience Tours and I cannot imagine ever doing an Italian tour again without Elisa as our guide. She made entry into each area efficient and seamless and we found ourselves hanging on her every word as she regaled us with so many interesting stories and information. Our four hours together just wasn’t long enough and we can’t wait to go back and have another expert immersive experience with Elisa.
Elisa is an exceptional tour guide and a wonderful person. Her meticulous attention to detail and depth of knowledge were truly remarkable. During our time in Rome, she led us on two fantastic tours, and in Florence, she arranged a memorable day tour that exceeded our expectations. Her thoughtfulness shone through when she surprised me with a special birthday treat atop a hill, showcasing a breathtaking view. I wholeheartedly endorse Elisa's services and will eagerly engage them again, recommending her to all my friends and family.
My husband and I booked three tours with Elisa, and it was an excellent decision. She was highly knowledgeable, fun to talk to, and did a great job of catering to our somewhat esoteric interests (for the last tour in particular, we requested something bespoke). I appreciated that she took us to see things that we were unlikely to have found on our own. We would absolutely book with Roma Experience again.
We had a blast! We used Roma Experiences for half of our vacation doing The Vatican, Pompeii and Testaccio Food Experience. The guides were amazing (thank you Marta, Angela and Elisa - knowledgeable, thoughtful and fun. Great time for everyone ranging from age 9 to 74.
