    Discover the best-preserved Mithraic temple of the city 14 meters underground. Find out about the pagan cult of Ancient Romans before Christianity and be intrigued by its sectarian and esoteric side. Learn about the early-Christian persecutions and martyrs and hear the legend of St. Clement whilst standing in the 1st Century structure that was once his home. Feel the eerie atmosphere and touch the waters of an underground river. Then, journey higher into the remains of the 4th Century Underground Basilica, built on top of the martyr’s house and below the actual one. Walk along its imposing walls and be fascinated by the ancient frescoes while learning about the scenes and the lives of the martyrs they portray.

Daniele V is an incredible guide at this amazing historic site. Daniele’s passion, enthusiasm and knowledge bring the site to life. It is clear that Daniele loves what he does! Our 25 year old son who travelled to be with us and is not as ‘into’ history as ourselves was transfixed! Thank you for being our guide to this wonderful piece of history - an absolute highlight of our trip to Rome!

We were only two in tour so it became private. Very informative. No pictures allowed. So fascinating to see different levels of civilization. Nice and cool on a hot day, also.

Merita sicuramente, unito allo splendore dei mosaici ci sono 2000 anni di storia che ti invitano a seguirli. Gli scavi archeologici richiedono una guida, collocare nel tempo i reperti affiorati ti permette di poterli valorizzare meglio.
