WHAT WE’LL DO

We’ll start from Trastevere, which is known as one of the most lively and crowded areas of the city.. But in this experience we’ll explore that side of Trastevere which is off-the-beaten path, the quieter area of Trastevere which cherishes some of the most incredible secrets and stories!

You’ll discover the less known (but not less rich) area of Trastevere and you’ll learn details and aspects that you’ll otherwise miss if you were exploring this area alone..

We’ll go 5 meters (16 feet) below street level, the more you go down, the more you’ll feel the cool and humid air typical of an underground exploration. Here we’ll decipher for you the endless layers of the city, where people like us used to live in ancient Rome.

We’ll then cross the Tiber river and land on the Tiber island (did you know in Rome there is an island??) Where you’ll discover the stories which you cannot find in the guidebooks, because these are the stories that the people of Rome passed on by word of mouth, generation after generation.
