What makes Private Tour of Trastevere’s Hidden Gems and Undergrounds a unique experience ?

Meet by the Tiber river and get ready to chart a fascinating course through the centuries as you walk the picturesque streets of Trastevere and visit hidden sights unlikely to be noticed on your own.

Discover the medieval Basilica of Saint Crisogono and be surprised by the captivating beauty behind its outside ordinary appearance. Marvel at the apse made by Bernini and the geometric Cosmatesque pavements. Go below the surface and find yourself in 4th-century Rome. Perceive the mystical atmosphere of the ancient underground basilica and walk along its walls, original frescoes, and the old crypt.

Then head towards the Church of Santa Cecilia and go under the earth into its impressive undergrounds. Walk on the original mosaic-flooring of the 3rd-century Roman House of the martyr and be amazed by the preserved look of the subterranean earlier basilica. Be fascinated by the legend of St. Cecilia’s life and her macabre death, and see the beautiful Roman mosaics all around her tomb.

Visit the Cavallini room and marvel at his Last Judgement masterpiece (only with the morning option of the tour).

Stroll around the cobbled streets of Trastevere with your guide and immerse into its distinctive and lively spirit.

End your tour at the heart of the neighbourhood in front of the stunning golden mosaics of Santa Maria in Trastevere, one of the oldest churches of Rome. From here, immerse on your own into the authentic life of the district, its wineries, and traditional food tavernas, which Trastevere is famous for.
