Explore Rome’s San Clemente Basilica, ancient streets, frescoes, and Mithraic temple on a guided underground journey through history.
Descend beneath Rome’s streets on a San Clemente Underground and Basilica Tour, where nearly 2,000 years of history lie stacked beneath one remarkable church. Begin in the 12th-century Basilica of San Clemente, taking in its golden apse mosaic and medieval artwork before heading underground.
Explore the remains of a 4th-century Early Christian basilica, then continue into a 1st-century Roman neighborhood. Walk along ancient streets, see original frescoes and a former Roman residence, and visit one of the world’s best-preserved Mithraic temples. Along the way, your guide traces Rome’s transformation from a pagan empire to the center of Christianity.
With a maximum of 10 participants, this San Clemente Underground and Basilica Tour offers a more personal setting and room to ask questions. Meet your guide outside the basilica entrance 15 minutes before departure, then step into a hidden side of Rome that rewards curious travelers. Book your place and discover the city’s history beneath your feet.
