what you'll experience
-
Step into 2,000 years of Rome
Descend through San Clemente’s layers, from the 12th-century basilica to a 4th-century church and down into a 1st-century Roman house. Feel the city’s buried past rise around you - tangible and alive.
-
Discover the secret shrine of Mithras
Slip into the shadowy Mithraeum, where carved stone, cool shadows, and the hush of running water carry you far from the streets above. Mysterious and intimate, it’s a rare peek into ancient Rome’s secret rites.
-
Wander through the Catacombs of Domitilla
Follow twisting tunnels lined with tombs, inscriptions, and early Christian frescoes. Each step echoes centuries of devotion and human stories, turning the underground into a world that feels both distant and startlingly close.
-
See faith take shape in ancient art
Lean closer to frescoes and carved symbols that reveal how early Christians imagined faith, death, and what comes after. Tiny brushstrokes and vibrant colours turn ancient belief into a story you can almost step inside.
-
Move seamlessly between Rome's hidden layers
Ride from San Clemente to the Catacombs of Domitilla in comfort, moving effortlessly between centuries and leaving with the feeling of having uncovered Rome’s hidden history in plain sight.
