Basilica of San Clemente al Laterano (Basilica di San Clemente al Laterano) Tours and Tickets

Discover what ancient sites lies beneath Rome's already historical streets on an underground tour. Following a guide, explore a labyrinth of hidden churches, temples, tombs and narrow streets 50 feet (15 meters) below the modern-day street level. See houses of Roman senators, abandoned shops and even a subterranean spring. You'll start at the Basilica of St Clement to head below ground, plus visit the ancient church of Santi Giovanni e Paolo on Celian Hill.

Go underground in Rome with this art-focused tour, complete with an Italian wine tasting. Learn about the frescoes lining the walls beneath San Clemente Church and see Michelangelo's Moses statue at San Pietro Church. A sommelier leads a wine tasting with both white and red wines paired with local cheeses and cured meats.

Venture beneath the lofty churches and bustling city streets of Rome to discover the ancient mysteries of the Domitilla catacombs. Follow in the footsteps of early Christians as you explore this underground network of tunnels and burial chambers, and marvel at the macabre and astonishing art created by thousands of monks' skeletons at the Capuchin Crypt. You'll also discover thousands of years of spirituality at an underground Mithraic temple, a pagan sanctuary buried under the famous Basilica of St. Clement.

This tour is designed to discover Rome's underground treasures. We will visit Cripta dei Cappuccini, Basilica of St. Clement and Catacombs of St. Callixtus. Our driver will pick you up at your accommodation in Rome.  The tour starts exploring the Catacombs of St. Callixtus in which were buried tens of martyrs, 16 popes and many Christians. Afterwards, we will visit the three different levels of the Basilica of St. Clement. We will reach the lower basilica dated to 4th century AD, which preserves wonderful medieval frescoes. Going further down through another stairway we will arrive in a third underground level, whose structures are dated back to first century AD where we will find a complex of ancient roman houses. Finally, we will visit the Cripta dei Cappuccini located under the Church Santa Maria della Concezione.

Visit the underground attractions of Rome on a 4-hour private tour. The comprehensive itinerary would be difficult to complete in one day by public transit or taxi. Instead, start from your hotel and let your private driver comfortably transport you to a number of locations. Explore each attraction independently, including the Catacombs of St. Callixtus and Capuchin Crypt. Listen as your driver explains monuments you pass along the way.

Enjoy a private last-minute tour of the subterranean Rome with a dedicated guide. Discover the fascinating history of the subterranean levels of the city, the artworks and the paintings hidden underground!
