Overview
Admire Trastevere’s charming architecture and explore its historic underground
Meet your guide near the beautiful Tiber River, then travel back in time as you explore the picturesque streets of Trastevere. Head to the medieval Basilica of Saint Crisogono, which boasts an impressive interior. Next, go underground and find yourself in 4th-century Rome. Soak up the unique atmosphere of this underground basilica, admiring its ancient frescoes and mysterious crypts.
Head to the Church of Santa Cecilia next, and marvel at its 3rd-century underground mosaic flooring. Learn about the legendary Santa Cecilia, and her macabre death. Head to the Cavallini Room next, and marvel at the Last Judgement masterpiece (morning tours only).
