About this tour

Go beneath Rome’s busy streets to uncover crypts, ancient waterworks, and the foundations of a grand imperial stadium. On this family-friendly Rome Underground Tour, a professional child-friendly guide leads you through the Capuchin Crypt beneath Santa Maria della Concezione, where its unusual chapels offer a memorable glimpse into the city’s past. Continue to Vicus Caprarius, the underground City of Water, a maze connected to Rome’s ancient water system. Its entrance fee is paid on site. The tour ends in Piazza Navona, a lively square built on the site of Emperor Domitian’s stadium. Along the way, stories bring hidden history to life for younger visitors and adults alike. The Rome Underground Tour lasts three hours and includes tickets to the Capuchin Crypt and entry to Domitian Stadium. Meet at the entrance of the Church of the Immaculate Conception on Via Veneto. Wear clothing that covers your knees and shoulders for entry to places of worship and selected museums, and be ready to carry a stroller in some areas. Book your place and discover a fascinating side of Rome beneath the familiar landmarks.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.00 from 1 review. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in Rome
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.0.
